The article analyzes the problem of building state-confessional relations in the Siberian region at a turning point - during the civil war. Attention is paid to the religious policy of the provisional Siberian governments during the revolutionary transformations of the early 20th century. The results of a comparative analysis of the implementation peculiarities of the religious policy by successively different governments during 1917-1919 are presented. The novelty of the research lies both in the topic itself and in the previously unexplored source base. Previously unexplored materials from the archival storage of the Russian State Historical Archive of the Far East (RSHA FE) have been put into circulation. The implementation of the research concept was facilitated by historical-comparative, comparative, analytical research methods. The results achieved in the process of analyzing the documents of the archival storage of the Russian State Historical Archive of the Far East indicate the pragmatic approach of the provisional Siberian governments to issues of ideology, including religious.

The purpose of the study is to show the role of friendly patronage in the promotion of fellow students in the Russian Empire at the beginning of the 20th century. The career of Alexandr Vysokosov, a graduate of the Nikolaev Cavalry School, first a cornet of a dragoon regiment, then an official of Special Assignments in the Vladimir province and the Primorskii region is taken as an example. Unpublished documents from three archives were used as sources. They are the attestation notebook and record of service – from the collection of the Russian State Military Historical Archive (Moscow), an official list – from the State Archive of the Vladimir Region (Vladimir), cases of recruitment and dismissal – from the Russian State Historical Archive of the Far East (Vladivostok). The documents show that Vysokosov studied poorly and after graduation was unable to build either a military or a civilian career, and from 1903 to 1912 he was retired twice. Thanks to the help of a classmate and friend Vladimir Lodyzhenskii, in 1913 he was able to get a position in the Primorsk regional administration. But in Vladivostok he was remembered only for his bribery, drunkenness and inappropriate behavior. And even the support of a friend – the vice governor – did not save him from the third dismissal, under Article 788 of the Charter on Service.

The history of the Russian Magneto-Meteorological Observatory (RMMO) in Beijing has not been extensively researched. Sources for this information are Russian (the Russian State Historical Archive, Saint Petersburg Branch of the Archive of the Academy of Sciences, Russian National Library) and Chinese (the First Historical Archive of Beijing, the Library of the Shanghai Zikavey Observatory) archives. These archival materials can be scientifically and methodologically analyzed. At the beginning of the 18th century, the Russian Orthodox Mission (ROM) was founded in the territory of Beijing. Existing until 1955, the ROM performed an important role in the development of Russian–Chinese relations. Russian scientists could only work in Beijing through the ROM due to China’s policy of fierce self-isolation. The ROM became the center of Chinese academic studies and the first training school for Russian sinologists. From its very beginning, it was considered not only a church or diplomatic mission but a research center in close cooperation with the Russian Academy of Sciences. In this context, the RMMO made important weather investigations in China and the Far East in the 19th century. The RMMO, as well as its branch stations in China and Mongolia, part of a scientific network, represented an important link between Europe and Asia and was probably the largest geographical scientific network in the world at that time.

Goals. The article investigates Russian-Mongolian military cooperation in the 1930s. Methods and Materials. The work examines collected documents and materials housed by the Russian State Archive of Socio-Political History. Results and Conclusions. The early 1930s were characterized by the aggravation of the international situation in the Far East: Japan attacked China and occupied a considerable territory. Japan’s external policy was turning more and more towards expansionism, giving rise to sentiments to seize mainland territories which meant а direct threat to Mongolia and Soviet regions. So, the period witnessed a series of regular top-level meetings between the Soviet and Mongolian governments. The Kremlin negotiations of November 1934 proved essential enough for the further development of Soviet-Mongolian military and political cooperation. The Kremlin, thus, took the strategic lead and got actively involved in Mongolian affairs. Records of the Soviet-Mongolian negotiations of November 27 underline the vital need for Mongolia to have strong national armed forces, and report the expediency of signing non-aggression and mutual respect treaties was being discussed. The Protocol of mutual assistance between the USSR and the MPR of 12 March 1936 set a new global trend for intergovernmental cooperation and strategic partnership in the context of increasing international tensions. Active joint military actions against imperialist Japan in 1939 at Khalkhin Gol, efficient coordination of foreign policy steps thus became an important stabilizing factor in the region, being a bright page in the history of relations between the countries.
