Cavalier of the Order of Honor, Georgia. Inventing their own, personal history in Russia began under the Russian monarchical dynasty of the Romanovs, who established censorship committees and forbade the import of books by foreign historians about Russia, in which the hard-hitting truth was stated. Russian censorship mercilessly cut out not only sentences and paragraphs, but entire chapters, sometimes banning books entirely. After the victory of the Bolsheviks in 1917, historical censorship became the basis for the formation of a new ideology, and after the cleansing of "harmful" books and magazines, after the repressions and deportations of scientists, the population of the Soviet empire knew only about the history that was allowed to be taught in schools and universities.
