Tushino Camp
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Tushino Camp was the camp of False Dmitry II near the village of Tushino near Moscow, which from June 1608 to December 1609 served as the capital of this impostor, who, as a result, received the name "Tushino Thief".[1] All those dissatisfied with the elected Tsar Vasily Shuisky, flocked to the Tushino Camp, which made it a shadow capital with its own state institutions, a patriarch, and so on. From December 1609 to March 1610, the Tushino Camp supported the Polish King Sigismund.
