Peter the Great married Eudoxia Lopukhina in 1689, but the marriage was unhappy and eventually annulled. He later married Marta Skowrońska, who took on the name Catherine I after Peter's death in 1725. Catherine I became the Empress of Russia following Peter's reign.
yes
Peter the Great was a Russian czar/tsar in the 1700's who's main achievement was to "westernize" Russia. Some achievements include... -Building a Navy - Creating the Table of Ranks, which allowed peasants to move up on the social chain. -Building a new capital (St. Petersburg) -Introducing art and philosophy into early Russia -WESTERNIZING RUSSIA
No, it didn't. Under Peter the Great's reign Saint-Petersburg became the capital of Russia. Only in 1917 when the regime of czars fell and the Soviet Union was founded, Moscow again became the capital.
The reign of Czar was only so long. Sometimes they left some business undone as Peter did. Catherine was able to attain his goal of westernizing Russia.
No Ivan "the terrible" died in the late 1500's before Ivan, Peters brother was even born.
Catherine the Great (Catherine II) of Russia reigned from July 9, 1762 to November 17, 1796 when she died at age 67.
This has to do with the history of Russia.
The ruler of Russia that seized territory from Poland was Catherine II, also known as Catherine the Great. Her reign lasted from July 9, 1762 to November 17, 1796.
Because of the numerous reforms which she made to Russia during her reign, however she wasn't a total despot because she let the nobels ginfluence her decisions greatly. It had nothing to do with the fact she was married to Peter III - she had her lover murder him so that she could become ruler.
