    Serb was here before you

    You would have been my #2 choice, honest!

      Serb should be shackled and thrown into the deepest dungeon; right next to onodera.

        To a non Russian Stalin seems a surprising choice, albeit a third choice. Please don't tell me they are thinking of renaming St. Petersburg again.

        I would have expected more great writers and composers in the top five. Was being a leader part of the criteria?

              They seem to be eager to claim a Georgian as Russian, while we would rather leave the Austrian guy for Austria

                Thats a point, how on earth does a bloke who wasn't Russian get to be the greatest Russian, thats like making Queen Victoria the greatest Indian

                Silly russians.

                If you going to g o for a bloke who won the war why not go for Zhukov, I'm sure he was no saint but he's not the greastest mass murderer of the 20th Century

                    Victoria was at least born in Britain:



                    As was her father.

                      It's ok, this will be a non-issue after the Russians re-take Georgia .

                      Edit: I suspect the better analogy involves Napoleon and France. (Corsica wasn't part of France when he was born.)

                        Georgia was part of Russia when Iosif was born, actually.

                          Doesn't the title of this thread have something do to with Hitler??

                            The title is only an oblique reference to the content of the thread.

                              Well, ifyou take out the moral implications, surely Stalin is a great Russian.

                                Close, but wrong - according to the Putzger history map-book, Corsica turned french in 1768. Napoleon was born in 1769 (wiki).
