>>5779395 According to this report, “The Great Game” is the 189-year-long diplomatic, military and political confrontation between Russia and the United Kingdom that began on 12 January 1830—and that by the early 1860’s, saw Russia forming an alliance with the United States—one of the most important dates being on 29 October 1862 when Russian Foreign Minister Gortchakov gave to United States chargé d’affaires Bayard Taylor a formal Russian pledge never to move against the US, and to oppose any attempt by other powers to do so.

This formal Russian pledge to protect the United States, this report continues, came at the same time America was embroiled in a Civil War—and that Britain and France planned to exploit by sending their invading armies based in Canada and Mexico into the US to carve it up among themselves, and whose first action planned was a British naval incendiary bombardment of Boston and New York City to burn these cities to the ground—but whose invasion plans met with total failure on 24 September 1863 when the Russian Baltic Fleet arrived in New York City to protect it—followed on 12 October 1863 when the Russian Far East Fleet arrived in San Francisco to protect the entire western coastline of America.
