Memory Eternal to all Cossacks who were killed during the Cossack Genocide!


In the beginning of 1917, the Grand troubles in Russia lead to grief filled moments in world history. Until the 20th century, Cossacks were free people who occupied the territory from the Don River, to the pacific ocean, lived on military and farm lands, and had the right to their own government. Each Cossack region was strictly organized from vllages, states, and etc. The Cossack people had an understanding of honor, kinship, the duty to protect their lands and their church. In 1919 the newly established government in the revolutionized Russia announced to bring upon " Mass terror against all Cossack People!” (Trotsky 1919). Since then millions of Cossack were brutally murdered, forced to leave their free lands, and an entire nation almost dispersed completely. In today's world, the genocide still continues as the Russian government still rejects the recognition of the Cossack Genocide, or of the Cossack Nation it self. Instead, all around the world, Cossacks are faced with impostors, various movements, and generals, created by Russian government and its propaganda in order to mock the Cossack Nation. Let us all remember, we have a rich and glorious history, and we must all remember our ancestors, brothers, and sisters who laid down their lives for the Cossack People.
Eternal Memory to all of those Cossacks who were killed during the Cossack Genocide!
