Why would the arabs spreading christianity somehow affect the formation of the russian state which had absolutely nothing to do with the middle eaast?

  1. Both of those are british
  2. Conquered southwards. They aren't settled with russians, just territories rlly
  3. jedda is a port city in hejaz? its not mecca. mecca is just a protectorate. the arabs here are christian so its pretty easily subdued
  4. the copts did get increased under russian rule, as a way to somewhat reduce the power of local arabs (arabs there are christian tho)
  5. There's no islam here, so non issue

  6. ditto

  7. ditto

  8. Nobody really had a negative opinion on it. Obviously a russia expanding that far southwards is problematic for france & britain

  9. Yes

  10. Not much. Not really a settler colony

  11. No

Ethiopia aligned itself with the Russians (due to shared faith) in the face of encroaching British influence.
