Best Answer

Peter's reforms drew negative reactions from the citizens of Russia as it created an all powerful Tsarist state. His Table of Ranks greatly disempowered and created tensions among the elite Boyars, who he didn't trust. His poll tax was structured in a way that peasants, who had been able to avoid previous taxes, were now unable to do so. His laws also deepened the subjugation of serfs by landowners.
