About me and my interests

  • Belize - I was born in Belize and still live there currently and I never want to leave my beautiful green jewel.
  • Mennonite Settlements, HRE, Vistula Delta, Ukraine, Canada - I am a Russian Mennonite, my forefathers migrated from the Holy Roman Empire through Prussia (Vistula Delta), the Russian Empire (The Ukraine), Canada, Mexico and then to British Honduras (Belize).
  • Mexico, Guatemala - Belize’s neighbouring countries
  • British Empire, Spanish Empire, Mayan Empire - these empires used to control what is now Belize
  • The Caribbean - these countries have similar histories as Belize, most of them having been a part of the British Empire and still more closely aligned to Belize than the rest of Latin America.

Current Projects

  • French Empire
  • Mennonite Colonies
  • History of Belize (everything)
