Sophie Friederike Auguste [April 21, 1729-November 6, 1796] ruled Russia as Empress Catherine II the Great . She was born in Stettin, Prussia. But she converted from Lutheranism to Eastern Orthodox Christianity, at 16, to marry the tsar apparent. The marriage was intended to strengthen the interaction between Russia and Prussia, to the detriment of Austria. She ruled in her own right, December 25, 1761-June 28, 1762, after her husband, Tsar Peter III [February 21, 1728-July 17, 1762], was overthrown by guardsmen on July 13-14, 1762.
