Yana Zaryanova, officer of the Russian Imperial Army
"Ничего не делать — стоять и умирать." - Alexander Osterman-Tolstoy.
Very inspired by these documentaries: 1812 and 1812-1815.
Yana Zaryanova is a junior non-commissioned officer in the Russian Imperial Army, who grew up in a merchant family from a small village near Moscow. Since childhood, her parents had been preparing her to become a merchant and continue the family business. But she was drafted into the army just before the outbreak of the Patriotic War of 1812. She found herself on the front lines, fighting against Napoleon's army, but after the French were driven out of Russia, she was faced with new battles as part of the the War of the Sixth Coalition, where Russian forces and their allies pursued Bonaparte's retreating army across Europe.
