it's A: Ivan the Terrible

The were six Tsar Ivans. # Ivan I - Kalita (Moneybags - due to his heavy taxes) # Ivan II - (Son of Ivan I - no great claim to fame) # Ivan III - The Great (Freed Russia from Tartar control) # Ivan IV - The Terrible (became terrible during his later years) # Ivan V - (Older brother of Peter the Great - died young - no claim to fame) # Ivan VI - (An infant Tsar locked away for life - no claim to fame)
Ivan III first married Maria Borisovna (Maria of Tver) who died in 1467. He then married Sophia Palaiologina, who was the niece of Constantine XI, the last emperor of the Byzantine Roman Empire. This connection between the rulers of Russia and the Roman Empire is what led to Russian rulers eventually being crowned as 'Tsars.' Ivan III was the first to use that word, but not the first to be crowned with that title.
