Ivan the Terrible earned this name in English due to his sporadic outbursts of suspicion and persecution of the noble classes. However, in fairness, he was also an excellent diplomat and patron of the arts and trade.
As with most historical figures, part of his legacy has been memorialized and part of his legacy has been forgotten.
