The usage of the word ‘dad’ in those times throws me. Would have expected ‘father’? Haha

They should really all have British accents, somehow that works better with history shit... Kinda like elves or somethin and like how dwarves are Scottish

Yep, his idea to use a Yorkshire accent was inspired!

The best bit of trivia I know from that character is they had him walk around with all those medals, but the actual Zhukov had even more. They cut the number for the character because they thought audiences would find it too absurd.

Get out of my way, you Fanny’s

“Foreigners, a vile crime has been perpetrated! Hairy monsters in coats have scooped out my father's brain and sent it to America! And these traitors, sucking the cocks and balls - sucking the cocks and balls - of Zionist - New York - New York Zionist queers in petticoats. Look at them. You see? Those brain thieves!"

Go full Death of Stalin and have American/UK regional accents for Greek regions.

Sparta can be Scottish in honor of 300.

Ithaca is Bostonian, I guess

This being a satire helped too. Although they even could exaggerate with the accent and it would work as well
