Was Peter the great Russia a good leader?
Outwardly, yes and then mostly where the upper classes of society were concerned. New buildings were built in the Western style, Court and nobles dressed like their Western counterparts and started to talk French; and their wives came out of the womens' quarters where they had been virtually locked up until then. Also, Russia adopted several 'Western' techniques, especially where the army and navy were concerned. Other things remained much the same: the ancient feudal structure with its many millions of serfs and much of the fatalistic ( and some would say 'serf') mentality that persists in Russia even to this day.
What is the story Anastasia about?
"Anastasia is about the lost princess of the tzar empire of russia. When the princess was little, the commoners started a civil revolution and burned the palace. Anastasia's family was killed except for her grandmother, a dutchess in Paris. When Anastasia and her grandmother tried to escape, Anastasia fell off the train and hit her head, causing amnesia. The story is her trying to find her way to Paris, based on a clue 'together in Paris' which is inscribed on her necklace. Anastasia is taken to Paris by a pair of cons looking to find a princess look-a-like so they can 'reunite' her with her grandmother and 10million reubels reward. The villain is the sorcerer Rasputin, who traded his soul for forbidden magic so he could kill the entire royal family. But Anastasia is alive, so his mission is incomplete, which means she must also survive his attempts on her life." This is what the cartoon movie is about.

Did Peter the Great believe in the Divine Right of King?
His religion was Russian Orthodox Christianity. He had friends who were Catholic and Lutheran and attended a few services in the Lutheran church. He said he hated Jews more than Muslims but had 13 officers in his army hung when they were planning a pogram and hired Jews who would convert to Orthodoxy. He sent an atheist to Siberia because he said religion is the basis of an oath and without an oath there is no society. He had a girl friend and a wife who were Lutheran though the last converted on having their child. He certainly did not hate other religions and when told to burn all churches of the foreigners and throw them out of Russia on the deathbed of Joachim the head of the Orthodox Church, he went out and bought a "German" suit. He was supported as the Tzar by the Orthodox Church and had no reason not to practice the religion although he did make it subordinate to the government after the death of Adrian, the successor of Joachim.
