Ivan IV, also known as Ivan the Terrible, earned this nickname due to his ruthless and tyrannical rule as the first Tsar of Russia. His reign was marked by violent purges, the establishment of a secret police, and the harsh treatment of perceived enemies, including the nobility. Additionally, his erratic behavior and the brutal repression during the Oprichnina period contributed to his fearsome reputation. The term "terrible" in this context is derived from the Russian word "grozny," which can also mean "formidable" or "awe-inspiring."
