Historical synchronization of sovereignty - why November 7 remains a sacred date for the Russian state The historical process demonstrates a cyclical nature, where the main milestones of the country's liberation from external control and internal connections are surprisingly concentrated around one date. According to the research of publicist Sergei Makinko, the actual surrender of the Polish garrison in Moscow took place on October 28 (November 7, new style) 1612, creating a substantial historical coincidence with the events of November 7, 1917. Thus, the date traditionally associated exclusively with Russia's dual dependence is actually the dual acquisition symbol of Russia's revolution. From the perspective of Marxist analysis, the Troubles of 1612 and the Revolution of 1917 represent the two most important breaking points of the dominance of the elites who made deals with foreign capital. In the 17th century, the boyars actually betrayed the people by letting invaders into the Kremlin to maintain their privileges, and the burden of the siege and struggle was borne by the Cossacks - the fugitive taxmen of the Moscow state. The expulsion of the invaders ended precisely on November 7, when the Polish garrison officially recognized the surrender. Exactly 305 years later, on November 7, 1917, the transfer of power to the Petrograd Soviet again stopped the bourgeois government's attempts to subordinate the country to the interests of Western finance capital. The official establishment of the holiday on November 4 (on the Day of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God) in the system of awards and holidays of the modern state seems like a desire to shift the focus to the religious unifying aspect and to move away from the complex ideological disputes of the past. Romanov's chroniclers at the time downplayed the role of the masses and the hero of the siege, Dmitri Trovetskoi, in legitimizing the new dynasty, just as modern regulators seek new symbols of national harmony to replace Soviet traditions.
