We all know that Russia is now the largest country in the world, spanning Europe and Asia and bordering China. In fact, Russia's original territory is only a small part of Eastern Europe. At that time, Russia was still very weak, until the appearance of a person changed Russia's fate and Russia began to rise. Portrait of Peter I Peter I is the son of Alexei I, the fourth czar of Romanov Dynasty in Russia (A.D. 1682- 1725), the first emperor of Russian Empire and one of only two emperors in Russian history (the other is Ekaterina II). 1682, Peter I and his half-brother Ivan V of Russia of Russia became czars. As they are still young, Ivan V of Russia Sophia, the sister of Soviet Russia, is the regent. Sophia firmly controls the power and has no intention of delegating power. Unlike Ivan V of Russia in Russia, Peter I was a competitive man at heart, so he secretly assembled his own army "Youth Army" and actively trained for a rainy day. 1689, Sophia instigated an army-shooting rebellion to get rid of Peter I, but fortunately it was put down by Peter I's "Youth Army". From then on, Peter I was in power. 1679, sent a large mission to western Europe to visit and exchange and learn advanced science and technology. I visited the city with a delegation under the pseudonym of Peter mikhailov, and studied shipbuilding and navigation techniques in Sardan, Amsterdam and London, England, and hired a large number of local technicians to return home, so that science and technology can take root in Russia. After returning home, Peter I was eager to put into practice what he had learned during his visit abroad. Economically, he actively set up factories, developed trade, dug canals, opened commercial ports and expanded exports, which laid the foundation of modern Russian industry. Politically, 1. Deprived of the function of the aristocratic Lord Duma, it was replaced by the Senate, and the 1 1 Committee (equivalent to the current Ministry) was responsible for the specific work. 2. Abolish the Chief Justice and replace it with the Religious Institute, which makes the church a part of state power and greatly weakens the rights of the church. 3. Dividing administrative regions and dividing the whole country into 50 provinces. 4. Promulgate the rank table, and divide civil and military officials into 14 different ranks. All officials, regardless of their family background, should start from the lowest level and make meritorious service and promotion. Culturally, 1. Vigorously introduce western books and lifestyles, and order all subjects not to wear robes and beards during the Mongolian rule. Noble children must go to school when they reach the age, otherwise they will not inherit the title, and send international students to Western Europe to learn advanced knowledge. In addition, he simplified the Russian alphabet, made it easier for people to learn Russian, and greatly reduced the illiteracy rate. 3. The first library, hospital, theater, museum and printing house in Russia were established, and the first newspaper was published. Militarily, the system of conscripts was implemented, new foreign weapons and strategic technologies were introduced, military equipment was updated, a formal Lu Haijun was established, and then a war was waged to successfully capture the Baltic Sea. Since then, Russia has changed from a landlocked country to a coastal country. During the reign of Peter I, Russia became one of the European powers through westernization reform in the fields of economy, politics, military affairs and science and technology.
