In 1552, Czar Ivan IV the Terrible had launched an expedition against the Khanate of Kazan, east of Nijni-Novgorod and a blocking point on the Volga. The use of heavy bombard guns breached the walls of the Tatar city, which was promptly overwhelmed and annexed. In 1556, in the wake of its success against Kazan four years earlier, Czar Ivan IV the Terrible launched a new expedition against the Khanate of Astrakhan, southward down the Volga. The capture of Astrakhan opened an access to the Caspian Sea and put the whole Volga basin under Russian control. Cities like Samara (1586), Saratov (1590) and Tsaritsyne (1589) were founded along the river to ensure proper control.Actions

Ivan III proclaimed himself Czar of all Russians, basing this claim both on his marriage with Zoe Paleologus and having prevailed as strongest of the Russian principalities.

Russia accepted the defection of several Lithuanian nobles to its crown and pursued an aggressive policy to recover the lands it considered its rightful possessions. The two countries fought several wars between 1490 and 1505, resulting in a gradual expansion of the Czar's territories towards the west.Actions

Sylvestr and Adashev belonged to a group of advisors called the Chosen Council, which was of great help in reforming Russia during the earlier part of Ivan IV's reign but fell out of favor following the death of Ivan's first wife Anastasia in 1560. Ivan, who had become unbalanced after his grave illness in 1553, accused his old friends of having poisoned his wife and had them exiled, leaving no one to temper his brutality.Actions

As part of his preparations for the oncoming campaign against Kazan, Ivan IV undertook certain measures to strengthen the army. A decree of 1550 abrogating mestnichestvo, establishing the order and subordination of commanding generals was aimed at increasing the effectiveness of the army. The decree, however, failed to eradicate completely the disputes among the generals on the march. Six companies of musketeers (strel'tsy) were created in 1550 as a small standing army, whose goal was to give more firepower to Russian army, and introduced new ways of conducting warfare. A decree on service of 1556 set norms for the nobles' military obligations, creating and regulating stricter order of military service.Actions

These furs, along with customs duties levied on all Siberian raw materials acquired by Russian entrepreneurs, more than reimbursed the state for the costs of its Siberian conquest and administration.
With the decline of the fur trade in the early 18th century, mining became the chief economic activity in Siberia. The state was the chief entrepreneur, but wealthy private families were also involved and silver, lead, and copper mining began around 1700.

Description
Russian settlement of Siberia was spurred by groups of zemleprokhodtsy (literally, 'crossers of land'), who came mostly from North European Russia and traversed the easy portages linking the east-west Siberian river systems to pioneer new forts and trading communities.Siberian furs constituted an important source of wealth for Russia and figured prominently in Russian trade with Western Europe. These furs, along with customs duties levied on all Siberian raw materials acquired by Russian entrepreneurs, more than reimbursed the state for the costs of its Siberian conquest and administration.
With the decline of the fur trade in the early 18th century, mining became the chief economic activity in Siberia. The state was the chief entrepreneur, but wealthy private families were also involved and silver, lead, and copper mining began around 1700.

Description
The defection of one of Ivan's best field commanders, Prince Andrey Kurbsky, to Poland in 1564 greatly shocked the Czar, who announced later that year his intention of abdicating in view of the boyars' betrayal. The Muscovites, however, led by the clergy, implored him to continue to rule, and in 1565 he acceded to their request on condition that he should be allowed to deal with the traitors as he wished and that he should form an Oprichnina-i.e., an aggregate of territory that would be administered separately from the rest of the state and put under his immediate control as crown land. The term Oprichnina also refers to the reign of terror which was conducted by the oprichniki, members of the tsar's new court, who were primarily drawn from the lower gentry and foreign population. The terror culminated with the proscription of the entire population of Novgorod and the sack of that northern city, which opposed Muscovite dominance (1570). The policy reduced the boyars' political power, disrupted the Russian economy, and contributed to the centralization of the Muscovite state. After 1572, when the oprichniki were disbanded, the term dvor (court) replaced Oprichnina.Actions

Description
Ivan felt that trade with Europe depended on free access to the Baltic and decided to turn his attention westward. In 1558 he went to war in an attempt to establish Russian rule over Livonia (in present-day Latvia and Estonia). Russia was at first victorious and succeeded in destroying the Livonian knights, but their ally Lithuania became an integral part of Poland in 1569. The war dragged on - while the Swedes (guarding their own interests in Estonia) supported Poland against Russia, the Crimean Tatars attacked Astrakhan and even made an extensive incursion into Russia in 1571 - they sacked and burned Moscow, leaving only the Kremlin standing.Actions

Description
Liberating it from the Tatar invaders, the Muscovite state gathered strength and so did the Russian Orthodox Church. In 1448, not long before the Byzantine Empire collapsed, the Russian Church became, in effect, independent from the Patriarchate of Constantinople. Metropolitan Jonas, installed by the Council of Russian bishops in 1448, was given the title of Metropolitan of Moscow and All Russia. In the centuries to come, the growing might of the Muscovite state went hand in hand with the growing authority of the Autocephalous Russian Church. In 1589 Jeremias II, Patriarch of Constantinople, fleeing from Turkish oppression, visited Moscow. The Russians managed to persuade him to appoint metropolitan Job of Moscow patriarch - the final move towards full independence for the Russian Church.Actions

Peasants fled their villages, leaving their holdings reclaimed by weeds. In response Godunov decreed that the peasants were forbidden to leave the estates on which they were born (Ivan IV had passed a similar decree in 1581). The peasants had truly become serfs.Actions

However, he proved to be too much of a coward to play the role of the new pretender, and didn't want to march personally on Moscow. Eventually, a serf Ivan Bolotnikov was summoned to lead the troops. He addressed the populace of Ukraine, and sure enough, managed to attract cossacks, criminals and runaway serfs to join the cause of Dmitry. As soon as he entered Russia, many cities surrendered, and some nobles joined him, but the rebels were defeated in December of 1606 by Skopin-Shuisky, and fled to Kaluga. Early in 1607, Bolotnikov received reinforcements, but was defeated again, and remained in Tula until October 1607, when he agreed to surrender.Actions

Description
Russian settlement of Siberia was spurred by groups of zemleprokhodtsy (literally, 'crossers of land'), who came mostly from North European Russia and traversed the easy portages linking the east-west Siberian river systems to pioneer new forts and trading communities.Siberian furs constituted an important source of wealth for Russia and figured prominently in Russian trade with Western Europe. These furs, along with customs duties levied on all Siberian raw materials acquired by Russian entrepreneurs, more than reimbursed the state for the costs of its Siberian conquest and administration.
With the decline of the fur trade in the early 18th century, mining became the chief economic activity in Siberia. The state was the chief entrepreneur, but wealthy private families were also involved and silver, lead, and copper mining began around 1700.

Description
Russian settlement of Siberia was spurred by groups of zemleprokhodtsy (literally, 'crossers of land'), who came mostly from North European Russia and traversed the easy portages linking the east-west Siberian river systems to pioneer new forts and trading communities.Siberian furs constituted an important source of wealth for Russia and figured prominently in Russian trade with Western Europe. These furs, along with customs duties levied on all Siberian raw materials acquired by Russian entrepreneurs, more than reimbursed the state for the costs of its Siberian conquest and administration.
With the decline of the fur trade in the early 18th century, mining became the chief economic activity in Siberia. The state was the chief entrepreneur, but wealthy private families were also involved and silver, lead, and copper mining began around 1700.

Czar Alexis received a superficial education from his tutor Boris Ivanovich Morozov before acceding to the throne at the age of 16. Morozov, who was also Alexis' brother-in-law, initially took charge of state affairs, but in 1648 a popular uprising in Moscow forced Alexis to exile Morozov. Alexis bowed to the rebels' demands and convened a land assembly (zemski sobor), which in 1649 produced a new Russian code of laws (Sobornoye Ulozheniye), which legally defined serfdom.Actions

Description
Nikon was the patriarch of the Russian Orthodox Church from 1652 to 1666. He undertook an extremely vigorous reform of church discipline and ritual with a view to purging accretions and eccentricities from the Russian rites. His reforms, particularly his correction of service books from the Greek (1654), created a schism in the church and inspired the formation of a major opposition sect, the Raskolniki, who retained the older usages banned by Nikon. Heterodox sects such as the Dukhobors formed and attached themselves to the Raskolniki to avoid persecution. By 1658, Nikon had aroused sufficiently powerful opposition to bring about his banishment, and in 1666 he was deposed and degraded. He was a figure unique in Russian church history, for he opposed any interference by the state in church affairs and considered the two institutions to be distinct and separate. His reforms were maintained after he was deposed.Actions

Fyodor Baikov comes to Beijing in 1656 in an effort to open up diplomatic relations with China. However, misinterpreting the Chinese etiquette made him behave in a way that got the Chinese ministers to believe that Russia acknowledged China as her Master. A message was dispatched to Moscow. The letter contained instructions on the yearly tribute that the vassal 'Russia' must now pay. The Czar had no chance to protest as no one in Moscow could understand Chinese. The Russian government ignored the event as if it has never taken place and China was too busy being subjugated by the Manchu dynasty to care.Actions

Stenka Razin (or Stepan Timofeyevich) was a Don Cossack hetman who carried out a series of successful raids on Persian and Russian settlements 1667-69. Having acquired great fame and wealth, Razin launched a new campaign in 1670 against the czar's fortress cities on the Volga. With a force of about 7,000 Cossacks, he seized Tsaritsyn and Astrakhan. In both towns Razin and his men engaged in drunken orgies and perpetrated savage atrocities against the nobles and military officers - he also replaced the local governments with Cossack institutions of self-rule. Razin continued his advance up the Volga, and along the way he incited the serfs and urban lower classes to join his rebellion. He captured Saratov and proceeded to Simbirsk, while his insurrection spread throughout the Volga region and even into some of the central Russian provinces. Alarmed at Razin's success, Czar Alexis sent an army to relieve Simbirsk. The force inflicted a decisive defeat on Razin's undisciplined and badly equipped troops. Razin fled to the Don, but on April 24, 1671, he was captured by loyalist Cossacks and turned over to the tsarist authorities. Brought to Moscow and tortured, Razin was executed by quartering in Red Square.Actions

Description
Russian settlement of Siberia was spurred by groups of zemleprokhodtsy (literally, 'crossers of land'), who came mostly from North European Russia and traversed the easy portages linking the east-west Siberian river systems to pioneer new forts and trading communities.Siberian furs constituted an important source of wealth for Russia and figured prominently in Russian trade with Western Europe. These furs, along with customs duties levied on all Siberian raw materials acquired by Russian entrepreneurs, more than reimbursed the state for the costs of its Siberian conquest and administration.
With the decline of the fur trade in the early 18th century, mining became the chief economic activity in Siberia. The state was the chief entrepreneur, but wealthy private families were also involved and silver, lead, and copper mining began around 1700.

In order to pay for the ongoing campaign against Turkey in the war of 1676-1681, Russian government headed by Prince Golitsyn attempted to revamp the system of taxation from the one based on land to the one based on the households. Ambitious changes to the local government structures were also planned, though their immediate consequence - the abolishment on January 12, 1682 of Mestnichestvo upset few. However, unexpected death of Fedor III and ensuing instability postponed the reforms until Peter the Great.Actions

Description
In 1697, the 15 years old Charles XII ascended the Swedish throne. Seeing the opportunity, the Russian Czar Peter I allied with Denmark and Poland-Saxony in 1699. However, with British and Dutch naval assistance, Charles XII landed on Zealand and promptly defeated the Danes, then moved to Estland where his badly outnumbered Swedes (1 to 5) won a crushing victory over the Russians. Instead of finishing the Russians, Charles moved against August II of Poland-Saxony and drove him out of Poland in 1704 (having the pro-Swedish Stanislas Leszinski elected King), then subjugating Saxony in 1706. While the Russians started the construction of St-Petersburg (1703) and rebuilt their armies, they also took parts of Estland (1704-1706). Charles then decided to march to Moscow via the Ukraine where the Cossacks under Mazeppa had again risen in revolt (1708). The harsh winter and Russian raids decimated his army and he was finally beaten at the battle of Poltava in 1709. The wounded King escaped to the Ottomans. The Russians were encircled by the Ottomans on the Prut River, but Peter succeeded through bribery to obtain a safe conduct in exchange for Azov. While Charles was still exiled in Turkey, Russian, Danish, Hanoverian and even Prussian troops captured most of the Swedish territory around the Baltic. Having emerged from Turkish internment, Charles got killed in 1718 in front of the Norwegian fortress of Frederickshald. The peace treaties that followed Sweden lost most of her Baltic empire.Actions

Description
Peter established a regular army on completely modern lines for Russia in the place of the unreliable streltsy and the militia of the gentry. While he drew his officers from the nobility, he conscripted peasants and townspeople into the other ranks. The troops were equipped with flintlock firearms and bayonets of Russian make, uniforms were provided, and regular drilling was introduced. For the artillery, obsolete cannons were replaced with new mortars and guns designed by Russian specialists or even by Peter himself (he drew up projects of his own for multi-cannon warships, fortresses, and ordnance). The Army Regulations of 1716 were particularly important - they required officers to teach their men how to act in battle, and to show initiative in the face of the enemy. For the navy, Peter's reign saw the construction, within a few years, of 52 battleships and hundreds of galleys and other craft - thus a powerful Baltic fleet was brought into being. Several special schools prepared their pupils for military or naval service and finally enabled Peter to dispense with foreign experts.Actions

Description
On May 16, 1703, shortly after the fall of Nyen, Peter himself laid the foundation stones for the Peter-Paul Fortress on Zayachy Island. This date is taken as the founding date of St. Petersburg. In the spring of the following year, Peter established the fortress of Kronslot, later Kronshtadt, on Kotlin Island in the Gulf of Finland, to protect the approaches to the delta. At the same time, he founded the Admiralty shipyard on the riverbank opposite the Peter-Paul Fortress - in 1706 its first warship was launched. Around the fortress and shipyard Peter began the building of a new city to serve as his 'window on Europe'. In 1712 the capital of Russia was transferred there from Moscow, although it was still formally on Swedish land. But only under the despotic rule of Czarina Ekaterina II the Great, the most Europeanlike city of St. Petersburg would be imposed as the new capital of the Russian Empire with the construction of the Winter Palace, the Czarina's winter imperial residence. Moscow would remain the Russian capital of orthodoxy and traditions.Actions

Description
Russian settlement of Siberia was spurred by groups of zemleprokhodtsy (literally, 'crossers of land'), who came mostly from North European Russia and traversed the easy portages linking the east-west Siberian river systems to pioneer new forts and trading communities.Siberian furs constituted an important source of wealth for Russia and figured prominently in Russian trade with Western Europe. These furs, along with customs duties levied on all Siberian raw materials acquired by Russian entrepreneurs, more than reimbursed the state for the costs of its Siberian conquest and administration.
With the decline of the fur trade in the early 18th century, mining became the chief economic activity in Siberia. The state was the chief entrepreneur, but wealthy private families were also involved and silver, lead, and copper mining began around 1700.

Description
In 1708, the Great Northern War was raging. In one of their traditional rising against their masters, be they Polish or Russians, the Zaparog Cossacks of Ukraine revolted under the leadership of their Hetman, Mazepa. His appeals to Charles XII of Sweden were listened to and in 1708-1709, the Swedish army moved to Ukraine, in the unfounded hope to find winter supplies and reinforcements. They only met defeat at Poltava, while the Cossack insurrection was utterly suppressed and most Cossacks deported to the eastern provinces of the Russian Empire.Actions

Description
In the course of Peter's reign, medieval and obsolescent forms of government gave place to effective autocracy. In 1711 he abolished the boyarskaya duma, or boyar council, and established by decree the Senate as the supreme organ of state-to coordinate the action of the various central and local organs, to supervise the collection and expenditure of revenue, and to draft legislation in accordance with his edicts. Martial discipline was extended to civil institutions, and an officer of the guards was always on duty in the Senate. From 1722, moreover, there was a procurator general keeping watch over the daily work of the Senate and its chancellery and acting as 'the eye of the sovereign'.Actions

A secular official - the ober-prokuror, or chief procurator - was appointed by the tsar to supervise the Holy Synod's activities. The Holy Synod ferociously persecuted all dissenters and conducted a censorship of all publications.Actions

The tsar Peter I the Great had the aim of modernising Russia and introducing the ideas of the Enlightenment. For this reason he decided to create a scientific institute like those in London, Paris or Berlin. The Academy of Sciences was created by Peter's decree the 22nd January 1724. Scientific meetings of the Academy were already held in 1725, and in December 1725, after Peter's the Great death, the official opening took place. The event was of great importance for revival of the country: every field of life in Russia needed development of science, education and culture. Working at the Academy project Peter the First invited a number of outstanding European scientists.Actions

The death of the last Duke of Kurland, Frederick William, in 1711, left no heirs to the Duchy except the weak and ill Ferdinand, and a lot of contenders in Russia and Poland. In 1726, the Polish Sejm managed to impose Maurice of Saxony, the bastard son of the current Polish King, as Duke, but only to change her mind and ask his withdrawal. At the same time, Russia was pushing for her own candidate, the Duke of Holstein-Gottorp, son-in-law of the Czarina Catherine I. After much bribing, negotiation and behind the scene diplomacy, Maurice was summoned to either leave or suffer war. It started in 1727, with Russia firmly committed and sending 8,000 troops to conquer the Duchy within 8 days. The war did not last long enough to embrace all of Europe and Maurice fled to France where he then had a brilliant military career.Actions

Description
The Swiss Leonhard Euler was, perhaps, the best mathematician of the 18th century. Through the requests of Daniel Bernoulli and Jakob Hermann, Euler was appointed to the mathematical-physical division of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Euler left Basel on 5 April 1727. He had joined the Russian Academy of Sciences two years after it had been opened by Catherine I the wife of Peter the Great. At the Academy Euler had many colleagues who would provide an exceptional environment for him: he carried out projects dealing with cartography, science education, magnetism, fire engines, machines, and ship building. The core of his research program was now set in place: number theory, infinitesimal analysis including its emerging branches, differential equations and the calculus of variations, and rational mechanics.Actions

Action C of 179053 - The Reversion of all alliances for Austria
Description
In 1740s the problem of Maria Theresia's succession to the Austrian throne and to the Habsburg inheritance caused a big instability in the European balance of powers which led to the War of Austrian succession. The peace that followed the conflict, provoked by the foreign opposition to the Pragmatic Sanction stated by the former Emperor Charles VI and ended with the Treaty of Aix-la-Chapelle in 1748, resulted in a well defined rivalry between major European powers forming essentially two main political formations: the alliance of the socalled 'Bourbon family pact' (France, Spain, Naples and the latest Parma, all with members of the same House of Bourbons) with Prussia and the alliance between Austria, Russia and England. Disappointed by England's interested approaches to the emerging power of Prussia wich led to the Convention of Westminster, a treaty with which both countries would avoid any foreign military presence or access in the German territories, Austria strengthened her political ties with Saxony, Russia and Sweden and started new diplomatic handlings with France, traditionally an arch-enemy of the Habsburgs since the old dispute over the Burgundian inheritance but for sure the most powerful antagonist to the rising British colonial empire. And an alliance with France would also mean the support of Spain and the Bourbon Italian monarchies. That diplomatic move would lead to a huge world conflict fought in the years between 1756 and 1763: the socalled 'Seven Years War'.Actions

The debates went on for months and came to nothing. Catherine's Instruction to the commission was a draft of a constitution and a code of laws.

Description
After the Pugachev revolt, Catherine realized that for her the people were more to be feared than pitied, and that, rather than freeing them, she must tighten their bonds. Before her accession to power, Catherine had planned to emancipate the serfs, on whom the economy of Russia was based. When confronted with the realities of power, Catherine saw very quickly that emancipation of the serfs would never be tolerated by the owners, whom she depended upon for support, and who would throw the country into disorder once they lost their own means of support. (The fortune of a noble was evaluated not in lands but in the 'souls' he owned.) Catherine instead turned her attention to organizing and strengthening a system that she herself had condemned as inhuman. She imposed serfdom on the Ukrainians who had until then been free. By distributing the crown lands to her favorites and ministers, she worsened the lot of the peasants, who had enjoyed certain autonomy. At the end of her reign, there was scarcely a free peasant left in Russia.Actions

Description
Russian settlement of Siberia was spurred by groups of zemleprokhodtsy (literally, 'crossers of land'), who came mostly from North European Russia and traversed the easy portages linking the east-west Siberian river systems to pioneer new forts and trading communities.Siberian furs constituted an important source of wealth for Russia and figured prominently in Russian trade with Western Europe. These furs, along with customs duties levied on all Siberian raw materials acquired by Russian entrepreneurs, more than reimbursed the state for the costs of its Siberian conquest and administration.
With the decline of the fur trade in the early 18th century, mining became the chief economic activity in Siberia. The state was the chief entrepreneur, but wealthy private families were also involved and silver, lead, and copper mining began around 1700.

Paul I, in an effort to strengthen the autocracy, reversed many of Catherine's policies - he reestablished centralized administrative agencies she had abolished in 1775, increased bureaucratic control in local government, and sought to impose limits on the authority of the nobles. While Catherine caused many ordinary Russians to be enslaved through serfdom, Paul was the first Russian czar to limit the work required of these unfortunate people. At Gatchina, Paul educated their children, lent them money, instituted a system of free medical care, gave them more land for their use, and upgraded agricultural technology. In short, he was a model landlord. When it came to Russia's most humble people, as both czar and grand duke, he sought to end their suffering and improve their lives. In this, he put into action the Enlightenment ideas parroted, but never followed unless it suited her, by his mother.Actions

Description
In the 18th century Malta became a place of interest to the ever-expanding empires: Austria, England, France, and even Russia. Ekaterina II considered the island a great asset in her plans for expansion in the Balkans, and indeed, in 1768 a Russian squadron suddenly arrived off Malta, trying to enlist the Order's military help in their expedition against the Ottomans. Simultaneously, the empress' agents attempted to rouse the Maltese population against the Knights, and only with the help of the French royal court did the Order evade the threat. However, the French Revolution caused the Knights great financial problems, as over half of their lands were confiscated. When with the third partition of Poland the Russian czar took control of the Order's estates in Courland and Volyn, he decided to follow his mother's strategy, and declared himself the Protector of the Order of St. John. Distressed by the Revoltion and the Knights' internal problems, Grand Master Emmanuel de Rohan accepted the offer in 1797.Actions

Alexander abolished many barbarous and cruel punishments then practiced and in 1802 introduced a more orderly administration of government by the creation of eight ministries. He improved the condition of the serfs and promoted education, doubling the number of Russian universities by establishing those at Saint Petersburg, Kharkiv, and Kazan. Nevertheless, despite the humanitarian ideas inculcated in him by his tutor La Harpe and despite his own wish to make his people happy, Alexander lacked the energy necessary to carry out the most urgent reform, the full abolition of serfdom. The institution of serfdom was, in the Czar's own words, 'a degradation' that kept Russia in a disastrously backward state. But to liberate the serfs, who composed three-quarters of the population, would arouse the hostility of their noble masters.Actions

Russian settlement of Siberia was spurred by groups of zemleprokhodtsy (literally, 'crossers of land'), who came mostly from North European Russia and traversed the easy portages linking the east-west Siberian river systems to pioneer new forts and trading communities.Siberian furs constituted an important source of wealth for Russia and figured prominently in Russian trade with Western Europe. These furs, along with customs duties levied on all Siberian raw materials acquired by Russian entrepreneurs, more than reimbursed the state for the costs of its Siberian conquest and administration.
With the decline of the fur trade in the early 18th century, mining became the chief economic activity in Siberia. The state was the chief entrepreneur, but wealthy private families were also involved and silver, lead, and copper mining began around 1700.

Description
In the Congress of Vienna, Poland again was the victim of the victorious powers appetite. As most Poles had been staunch supporters of the French to the very end - only a group of Polish nobles around Prince Adam Czartoryski had accepted the Czar as Poland's lord - they were not represented on the Congress. Russian Czar Alexander planned the reestablihment of a Polish Kingdom in dynastic union with Russia. This kingdom would comprise of the Duchy of Warsaw an possibly include territories further east, acquired by Russia in the Polish Partitions 1772-1795.However, the British side had objections, and a compromise was found according to which the province of Posen became Prussian, and the rest of the Duchy of Poland (Congress Poland) was reestablished as a Kingdom, in dynastic union with Russia. Cracow was declared a free city under the joint protection of its three neighbours, Austria, Prussia and Russia.

Action B of 24028 - A New Protector for Order of St. JohnDescription
In the 18th century Malta became a place of interest to the ever-expanding empires: Austria, England, France, and even Russia. Ecaterina II considered the island a great asset in her plans for expansion in the Balkans, and indeed, in 1768 a Russian squadron suddenly arrived off Malta, trying to enlist the Order's military help in their expedition against the Ottomans. Simultaneously, the empress' agents attempted to rouse the Maltese population against the Knights, and only with the help of the French royal court did the Order evade the threat. However, the French Revolution caused the Knights great financial problems, as over half of their lands were confiscated. When with the third partition of Poland the Russian czar took control of the Order's estates in Courland and Volyn, he decided to follow his mother's strategy, and declared himself the Protector of the Order of St. John. Distressed by the Revolution and the Knights' internal problems, Grand Master Emmanuel de Rohan accepted the offer in 1797.Actions

Influenced by Russia, the opposition forced the King to 'join' and called Russian troops to restore order. This led to a renewed invasion of Poland in 1793 by her neighbouring countries, which deprived her of most of her territory. She would disappear after the 1794 popular uprising of Kosciuszko and the final dissolution of the state in 1795.Actions

With the creation of a Legislative Assembly to limit the monarchic power, several reasons pushed France towards war in 1792. Internally, the republican party of the Girondins were calling for a war to rid Europe of monarchy and despotism but also to rid France of any internal reactions. Externally, the nobility, the socalled emigrés, fleeing to Austria and Prussia requested that those powers intervene to restore the French monarchy. Louis XVI, King of the French, saw in a war failure the possibility to restore absolutism. But the dissolution of the Ancien Régime in France alarmed all the European royal courts fearing that the French Jacobinism would have spread in the whole continent and provoked deep destabilization inside their own absolutist government systems.Actions

There he learned about the wealth and power of the Russian emperor and journeyed in horse-drawn sleighs, in winter, to Moscow. Although Russia and England had diverging interests in establishing relationships with each other, the Muscovy Trade Company formed to exploit the new trade was a commercial success, in particular with the Russian fur trade.Actions

Action A of 12125 - The Napoleonic Wars for FranceDescription
Napoléon argued that he wanted to build a federation of free peoples in a Europe united under a liberal government. But if this was indeed his goal, he intended to achieve it by taking power into his own hands. He supposedly intended to grant constitutions, introduce laws, abolished feudalism, create efficient governments and foster education, science, literature and the arts. The other powers of Europe looked on with alarm at an expansionist France, bringing its revolutionary ideals and fervour abroad in the wake of Napoléon's military might. Through the Treaties of Tilsit Russia became briefly an ally of France and that is when it attacked Sweden which couldn't count on help of any of its allies at that time. Russia took over Finland easily enough, and though it later turned against France once more, Finland would remain under Russian rule for over a century. Rather than fully incorporate Finland into Russia, tsar Alexander granted Finland autonomy as a grand duchy and Russia respected the constitution, and civil and religious rights already established under Swedish rule, at least for the time being.Actions

Action A of 3499 - Ending the Stagnation for PolandDescription
Stanislas II Poniatowsky (1764-1795) had been elected King of Poland under Russian pressure. The favorite of Catherine II of Russia, he aspired to reform the conditions of his realm, described as 'anarchy tempered by civil war'. Russia placed her supporters in the 1767 Confederation of Slutsk to prevent any curtailment in the Liberum Veto. Civil war occurred in 1768 and by 1772, the powers of Russia, Prussia and Austria, under the inspiration of Frederick II, proceeded to the first partition of Poland, taking border provinces from her and demanding that the Liberum Veto be maintained and all reforms abandoned.Actions

Action A of 3500 - Ending the Stagnation for PolandDescription
The 1788-1791 Four Years Diet of Poland took opportunity of the war between Russia, Turkey and Sweden (1788-1790) to attempt the transformation of Poland into a hereditary constitutional monarchy, which was proclaimed in the Constitution of May 1791. Influenced by Russia, the opposition forced the King to 'join' and called Russian troops to restore order. This led to the partition of the country in 1793, between her neighbouring countries, which deprived Poland of most of her territory. She would disappear after the 1794 popular uprising of Kosciuszko and the final dissolution of the state in 1795.Actions

Action A of 3789 - The Restoration of the French Monarchy for FranceDescription
Many countries had viewed the French revolution with neutral mistrust or eager interest, but with the Reign of Terror and the Execution of King Louis most countries became abhorred. The New Republic and its ideas undermined the 'Old Order' that existed in most European countries. Those several alliances were set up to restore the Bourbons to the French Throne, crush the revolution and get Europe back to normal again. This succeeded in 1814 and again in 1815 when foreign armies brought Louis XVIII on the throne. Louis XVIII was the brother of the Executed King Louis of France and in early life was known as the Comte de Provence. He remained in Paris after the outbreak of the French Revolution in 1789 but escaped to Belgium two years later. After King Louis' execution in 1793 he proclaimed himself regent, and after the death of his brother's heir in 1795, he took the title Louis XVIII. He lived as an exile in various European countries until he became King after Napoléon's first abdication in 1814. On Napoléon's return to power in 1815, however, Louis again fled to BelgiumActions

The permanent Russian exploration and colonization of Siberia that started under Ivan the Terrible had regularly continued all along the 17th century, with most of eastern Siberia discovered by the end of the century (Kamchatska was reached in 1679). The Amur basin had been explored by Khabarov in the 1650s and in 1689, a Russo-Chinese border conflict was settled by the first Chinese-European agreement, the Treaty of Nerchiinsk, fixing the Amur border. In 1727, the Kyakhta treaty would even make provisions for a Russian trading station to be established in Peking, the capital of the new Manchu dynasty (1644-1911).Actions

As most Poles had been staunch supporters of the French to the very end - only a group of Polish nobles around Prince Adam Czartoryski had accepted the Czar as Poland's lord - they were not represented on the Congress. Russian Czar Alexander planned the reestablihment of a Polish Kingdom in dynastic union with Russia. This kingdom would comprise of the Duchy of Warsaw an possibly include territories further east, acquired by Russia in the Polish Partitions 1772-1795.However, the British side had objections, and a compromise was found according to which the province of Posen became Prussian, and the rest of the Duchy of Poland (Congress Poland) was reestablished as a Kingdom, in dynastic union with Russia. Cracow was declared a free city under the joint protection of its three neighbours, Austria, Prussia and Russia.

Sweden was looking to get into the conflict between Russia and Poland from 1607, mainly because King Sigismund of Poland was an arch-enemy of King Karl IX of Sweden. Vasily Shuisky was very reluctant to invite the Swedes, yet he was in a very precarious position. Poland didn't follow the articles of 1608 treaty, and pretender was still getting regular reinforcements from Poland. Finally, tsar Vasily gave in, and in 1609 Skopin-Shuisky signed an agreement with Sweden. Sweden was to send 2,000 cavalry and 3,000 infantry mercenary force, for which the Russians were to pay. In addition, the King promised non-specified number of troops as a token of his friendship. In return, Russia was to recede its claim on Livonia, cede Korela to Sweden, and enter into alliance with Sweden against Poland. The treaty provided Russian government with some quality troops, but forced Poland into a full-scale war against it.Actions
