A university that was closed for 92 years after Russia’s victory over Sweden, only reopened in 1802 by the Tsar’s decree. Congratulations, I suppose?
The first university that was actually opened by Estonians was TalTech in 1918.
So yes, you DID wait for their enlightenment.
This is Tartu University in Estonia, founded in 1632.
Russia’s first university was established in 1724. That’s 92 years later!
But please continue the story about how the Baltics were sitting in villages waiting for enlightenment from Moscow.
