Catherine the Great founded several cities during her reign, with notable examples including Odessa in 1794 and Sevastopol in 1783. Odessa was developed as a port city on the Black Sea, while Sevastopol was established as a naval base. Both cities played significant roles in the expansion of the Russian Empire and its naval power.
