On this occasion, our story about the five most famous Russians - people of Polish nationality. But almost no one remembers the outstanding Russian politician Mikhail Oginsky, so it was customary to write his last name.

Meanwhile, this is the same person! Oginsky was a member of the government Senate - the highest state body of the legislative, executive and judiciary of the Russian Empire, which was subordinated to the emperor himself. The boy grew up in a highly educated Polish noble family. His uncle was not only a statesman and a military man, but also a great fan of art, in particular - music and poetry, and therefore played on several instruments, composed opera, polonaose, strokes, songs.

In the year, Mikhail moves to St. Petersburg and becomes the senator of the Russian Empire, actively engaged in politics. In years, he is the confidant of Emperor Alexander the Great. The composer talent of Oginsky manifested itself in the years. During this period, he wrote numerous combat songs, marches, polonaose. The most fame was Polonaise "Farewell to the Motherland", better known as the Polonaz Oginsky.

This amateur composer was a student of Osip Kozlovsky, whose famous Polonaz “Blood of Victory, Distribute! Nikolai Mikhailovich Przhevalsky - Photo: LiveInternet. In the year, the young man volunteered for Poland to participate in the suppression of the Polish uprising. Subsequently, he served as a teacher of history and geography at the Warsaw Junker School. At this time, his first works appeared, for which Nikolai Mikhailovich was elected a full member of the Imperial Russian Geographical Society.

In the military field he rose to the rank of Major General from infantry infantry. The largest merits of Przhevalsky are the research of several mountain systems and the discovery of new species of animals. This is a wild camel, the horse of Przhevalsky, a number of new species of other mammals. In the year, Nikolai Mikhailovich moved through Samarkand to the Russian-Chinese border, where during the hunt in the valley of the Kara-Balt River, having drunk river water, he became infected with a fever.

On the way to Karakol, N. Przhevalsky bought out in the river and, contrary to his own prescriptions, swallowed river water. Soon he felt bad and died a few days later. Due to the firmness of the soil, soldiers and Cossacks dug the grave of their commander for two days. The grave of Major General Przhevalsky is located on the shore of Lake Issyk-Kul, 12 km from the Kyrgyz city of Karakol.

The future Iron Felix studied for two years in the first grade, and did not graduate from the eighth, receiving "deuces" in Greek and Russian languages. However, this did not prevent Felix Edmundovich in the dumping ladder ... On December 20, the All -Russian Extraordinary Commission for Combating Counter -Revolution and Sabotage abbreviated - the Cheka. The party’s associates entrusted the great expert on prisons and links to Comrade Dzerzhinsky, who remained in this post before the transformation of the Cheka into the GPU in the year.

Felix Edmundovich himself repeatedly spoke about his department like this: “Only saints and scoundrels can serve in the organs. But the saints leave me, and only the scoundrels remain ”... Later, the police, railways, the commission to improve the lives of children, that is, to combat children's homelessness, as well as the High Council of the People’s Economy of the Supreme Economic Council,“ hung ”me.

Such an excessive load caused the premature death of iron felix from a heart attack at the age of 48 years. A number of researchers note that Dzerzhinsky was lucky to die his death. The fact is that in the notorious year, almost all of his associates were shot only because in the years the iron Felix had the imprudence of actively support Leo Trotsky ...

Gorin was not present during the voicing of the final scene, where Baron Munchausen says a phrase, which later became the famous: "A smart face is not a sign of mind, gentlemen."
