Established facts
Anatoly Fomenko is a Russian mathematician.He taught topology at Moscow State University.He is also a full member of the Russian Academy of Sciences.In the 1970s and 80s he published an alternative historical timeline called the 'New Chronology.' It cites statistical analysis and astronomical dating as its basis.He claims that most conventional historical records before the 11th century were fabricated.Historians and astronomers classify this as pseudohistory.
In this narrativeA shortened history
The New Chronology holds that the standard historical timeline is greatly inflated1.It claims that several ancient civilizations are actually duplicate records of the same events1.The real age of human civilization, in this view, is far shorter than the standard timeline1.Tartaria theory starts from this shortened view of history2.
In this narrativeThe path leading to Levashov
After Fomenko, Nikolai Levashov's view of history followed1.Levashov's theory is classified as a racist occult view of history1.These two branches are counted as the roots of Tartarian empire theory1.
In this narrativeThe theory moves online
Around 2016, this theory shed its Russian nationalist coloring1.It spread into the English-language internet through YouTube and Reddit1.A 2016 YouTube video by Philipp Druzhinin is counted as an early starting point1.The 2018 Reddit community r/Tartaria also sits within that current1.
In this narrativeThe scholarly rebuttal
The Russian Geographical Society has rebutted the New Chronology as extremist fantasy1.Historians point out that the methodology itself has never been verified1.Even so, Fomenko's writings continue to be published across multiple volumes1.
