The debate about where the oil industry originated has been going on for many years. Different countries have their own opinions on this matter. But everyone agrees that since the first oil drilling, the importance of this natural resource for humanity has begun to grow rapidly.

The military history of the 20th century is the history of the struggle for oil. After the First World War, it became clear that black gold was the weapon of the future. The Second World War became the arena of a fierce struggle for this resource. The battle did not end in May 1945, but moved into another phase.

Oil has become a curse for countries and peoples who once failed to resist invaders. An example of this is the history of the Middle East. The 20th century brought wars, coups and assassinations of national leaders.

Soviet oil was multiplied by the Siberian resource. But in the middle of the 20th century, only a few enthusiasts believed in it. Siberian oil burst to the surface in 1953, sweeping away doubts and beginning the history of the development of the richest oil territory.

The turbulent 90s were one of the most dramatic periods in the history of Russian oil. The fight for the country's economic sovereignty was fought on the barricades. Russia lost the battle, but not the war. Ahead were the years of the return of Russian oil to its native harbor.

Will there be enough oil reserves for future generations or will they be able to break free from the embrace of oil by betting on "green" energy? Will Russia retain its position as a world energy leader? These questions will be answered by those who hold the black gold today and who are responsible for its preservation and increase.
