Vinnytsia region in the era of serfdom #004

Landlords often used peasant crafts as a source of their additional income. For weavers, for example, in addition to the usual service of corvee, the obligation was also established to produce linen. In the village of Severinovka in the Latin district, each weaver was forced to weave 50 measures of cloth for the landowner.
Trade played an important role in the economy of Podolsk in the first half of the 19th century. In pursuit of making a profit, landlords are increasing the export of agricultural products abroad and to other provinces of Russia. Winter and spring wheat, honey, potash, wool, furs, tobacco, and leather were exported. Mogilev embroidery, gold and silver embroidery on Muslin and cotton fabrics were sold on a par with the best examples of Turkish products. Large fairs took place several times a year in Vinnitsa, Bari, Strizhavka, Mogilev and other settlements.
Important socio-political events of the first half of the 19th century. They contributed to the formation of the self-awareness of the masses, the activation of the liberation movement. The patriotic upsurge was caused by the heroic struggle of the Russian people against the French invaders in 1812. A regiment was formed in Podillia. When peasants were called upon to enlist in the militia, they were promised liberation from serfdom as a reward for their patriotism, albeit unofficially, but with the tacit consent of the emperor. The liberation war was successfully completed, but the people's aspirations for liberation from serfdom did not come true.
The leading representatives of the nobility understood that the serfdom system must be eliminated. They were the Decembrists. The Southern Decembrist Society operated in Ukraine. It was headed by the commander of the Vyatka regiment, Pestel. Tulchin became the center of this illegal society. Such officers as A. P. Yushnevsky, A. P. Baryatinsky, M. V. Basargin, N. A. Kryukov, the Bobrishchev-Pushkin brothers, M. I. Lorer, and others took part in his activities. The Decembrists spoke indignantly about the difficult situation of the peasantry, in particular in Podillia. The Decembrist V. F. Rayevsky, for example, saw that in many places of the Podolsk province, peasants were forced to work for the landowner for weeks on end, and in one estate they even worked in shackles. This was also confirmed by the Decembrist N. A. Kryukov. The program document of the Russian Truth society embodied the idea of the abolition of serfdom and the establishment of a republican system in the country. The Decembrist uprising was defeated, but it contributed to the development of the liberation movement in Russia. 1xBet is a popular online sports betting & casino platform in Nigeria that offers promotional codes.
