About Russian electronic journals on history. Internet resources on history

One of the tasks of our portal is to provide professional expertise to the numerous online history resources that exist in the network. Many of them contain incorrect factual information, such as errors in the dating of historical events. Many resources present unverified information from dubious sources. The editors of the portal, with the involvement of professional historians, have prepared an annotated catalog “Electronic resources on the history of Russia.”

These are “pure historical internet” sites that you can trust. The catalog is systematized into nine sections. It will be updated with new sections and resources. We are ready to accept your suggestions for the development of the Catalog..
