Peter forced the Russian nobility to adopt ways of western Europe, after returning from a tour of England and the Netherlands. Hope this helped! :)

I am pretty sure Peter the Great forced Russian nobility to adopt to European ways, but Catherine the Great also helped if you were wondering! I hope that helps! :D
To deal with the nobility, Peter I reorganized the government, Nobles could only advance in the governement if they were loyal to Peter I. To make sure that the Russian Church did not control him, Peter I abolished the position of Patriarch of the Russian Orthodox Church.
During the 19th century, Russian society was primarily under the control of the ruling Tsar and the nobility, who held immense power and wealth. They maintained a rigid social hierarchy with the nobility at the top, followed by the clergy, the bourgeoisie, and the peasantry at the bottom. The Tsar's autocratic rule and the strict enforcement of serfdom also played significant roles in shaping Russian society during this period.
No. Stravinsky was descended from Polish nobility and was of the Russian Orthodox faith. He was pro-fascist and quite anti-Semitic.
