Peter 1 is not a real king. Substitution of Peter I

In Moscow they gossiped: “The sovereign is not of Russian breed, and not the son of Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich.” The clear proof was that the Tsar favored the Germans, which meant he was one of them himself. They only argued about when and who replaced the monarch.

For “indecent speech” they were flogged, tortured, sent to hard labor and into exile, but they could not eradicate the rumors.
According to one version, the boy was replaced by the Germans in infancy. The Tsarevich’s “mothers” gaped, and that’s when the “German little boy” ended up in their arms instead of Pyotr Alekseevich.

According to another, the child was replaced by Tsarina Natalya Kirillovna herself, fearing that her husband would stop loving her if she gave birth to a girl. Allegedly, the queen put a child from a German settlement in a cradle, and gave the daughter to someone. Peter allegedly learned about the substitution from his mother when she was dying.

Evil tongues even found the “real” father of Peter I, who was supposedly an associate of the reformer Tsar Franz-Lefort. This is precisely what explained the general’s closeness to the tsar, his appointment as admiral, and then as head of the Grand Embassy.

According to another version, the king was replaced during a trip to Europe. This happened in Riga, where the real Peter was either walled up in a wall, or “the German king was put in a barrel and thrown into the sea,” and instead of him an impostor came to Russia.
There was a version that the king was tortured in prison by the Swedish queen Christina, who replaced Peter with her man.

It is alleged that Peter I, according to the memoirs of his contemporaries, changed dramatically after returning from the Great Embassy. Portraits of the king before and after his return from Europe are given as evidence of the substitution. It is alleged that in the portrait of Peter before his trip to Europe he had a long face, curly hair and a large wart under his left eye. In portraits of the king after returning from Europe, he had a round face, straight hair and no wart under his left eye. When Peter I returned from the Great Embassy, ​​he was 26 years old, and in his portraits after his return he looked about 40 years old. It is believed that before the trip the king was of heavy build and above average height, but still not a two-meter giant. The king who returned was thin, had very narrow shoulders, and his height, which was absolutely established, was 2 meters 4 centimeters. So tall people were very rare at that time.

In addition, there is a version, shared by a number of Russian historians, that Peter I died in 1691 during military exercises due to an accident. Allegedly, those around him were very afraid of losing their position, so they went for a replacement. The head of the conspiracy was Prince Fyodor Romodanovsky. On his order, they found a “replacement”, the Dutch shipbuilder Jaan Musch, who had come to Russia, and who was supposedly very similar to the tsar. Russia is actually Prince Romodanovsky, hiding behind a foreign impostor. After his death, in 1717, the new environment decided to put an end to the only heir of the real Peter - Tsarevich Alexei, who fled to the Holy Roman Empire. He was lured from there to Russia, and soon died in prison. Thus, according to this version, the Romanov dynasty was interrupted.

One of the reasons that gave rise to the version of the substitution of Tsar Peter I was the research of A.T. Fomenko and G.V. Nosovsky

The beginning of these studies was the discoveries made during the study of an exact copy of the throne of Ivan the Terrible. In those days, the zodiac signs of the current rulers were placed on the thrones. Thanks to the study of the signs placed on the throne of Ivan the Terrible, scientists have found that the actual date of his birth differs from the official version by four years.

Scientists have compiled a table of the names of Russian tsars and their birthdays, and thanks to this table it was revealed that the official birthday of Peter I does not coincide with the day of his angel, which is a blatant contradiction in comparison with all the names of Russian tsars. After all, names in Rus' at baptism were given exclusively according to the calendar, and the name given to Peter breaks the established centuries-old tradition, which in itself does not fit into the framework and laws of that time.

A. Fomenko and G. Nosovsky, based on the table, found out that the real name, which falls on the official date of birth of Peter I, is Isaac. This explains the name of the main cathedral of Tsarist Russia. Thus, the Brockhaus and Efron dictionary says: “St. Isaac’s Cathedral is the main temple in St. Petersburg, dedicated to the name of St. Isaac of Dalmatia, whose memory is honored on May 30, the birthday of Peter the Great.”

Let's look at the following obvious ones historical facts. Their totality shows a fairly clear picture of the replacement of the real Peter I with a foreigner:

1. An Orthodox ruler was leaving Russia for Europe, wearing traditional Russian clothing. Two surviving portraits of the tsar from that time depict Peter I in a traditional caftan. The Tsar wore a caftan even during his stay at the shipyards, which confirms his adherence to traditional Russian customs. After the end of his stay in Europe, a man returned to Russia who wore exclusively European-style clothes, and in the future the new Peter I never put on Russian clothes, including the attribute obligatory for the tsar - royal vestments. This fact is difficult to explain with the official version of a sudden change in lifestyle and the beginning of adherence to European canons of development.

2. There are quite good reasons to doubt the difference in the body structure of Peter I and the impostor. According to exact data, the height of the impostor Peter I was 204 cm, while the real king was shorter and denser. It is worth noting that the height of his father, Alexei Mikhailovich Romanov, was 170 cm, and his grandfather, Mikhail Fedorovich Romanov, was also of average height. The height difference of 34 cm stands out very much from the overall picture of real kinship, especially since in those days people over two meters tall were considered extremely a rare occurrence. Indeed, even in the middle of the 19th century, the average height of Europeans was 167 cm, and the average height of Russian recruits at the beginning of the 18th century was 165 cm, which fits into the general anthropometric picture of that time. The difference in height between the real Tsar and the false Peter also explains the refusal to wear royal clothes: they simply did not fit the newly minted impostor.

3. In Godfried Kneller's portrait of Peter I, which was created during the Tsar's stay in Europe, a distinct mole is clearly visible. In later portraits the mole is missing. This is difficult to explain by the inaccurate works of portrait painters of that time: after all, portraiture of those years was distinguished by the highest level of realism.

4. Returning after a long trip to Europe, the newly-minted tsar did not know about the location of the richest library of Ivan the Terrible, although the secret of the location of the library was passed from tsar to tsar. Thus, Princess Sophia knew where the library was located and visited it, and the new Peter repeatedly made attempts to find the library and did not even disdain excavations: after all, the library of Ivan the Terrible contained rare publications that could shed light on many secrets of history.

5. Interesting fact is also the composition of the Russian embassy that went to Europe. The number of people accompanying the tsar was 20, and the embassy was headed by A. Menshikov. And the returning embassy consisted, with the exception of Menshikov, only of Dutch subjects. Moreover, the duration of the trip has increased many times over. The embassy went to Europe with the tsar for two weeks, and returned only after two years of stay.

6. Returning from Europe, the new tsar did not meet with either his relatives or his inner circle. And subsequently, in a short period of time, he got rid of his closest relatives in various ways.

7. The Sagittarius - the guards and elite of the tsarist army - suspected something was wrong and did not recognize the impostor. The Streltsy revolt that began was brutally suppressed by Peter. But the Streltsy were the most advanced and combat-ready military units that faithfully served the Russian tsars. Sagittarius became by inheritance, which indicates the highest level these divisions.

It is characteristic that the scale of the destruction of the Streltsy was more global than according to official sources. At that time, the number of Streltsy reached 20,000 people, and after the pacification of the Streltsy revolt Russian army was left without infantry, after which a new set of recruits was made and a complete reorganization of the active army was carried out. A notable fact is that in honor of the suppression of the Streltsy revolt, a commemorative medal was issued with inscriptions in Latin, which had never before been used in the minting of coins and medals in Rus'.

8. The imprisonment of his legal wife Evdokia Lopukhina in a monastery, which the tsar did in absentia while at the Grand Embassy in London. Moreover, after the death of Peter, Lopukhina, by order of Catherine I, was transferred to the Shlisselburg fortress, which was famous for its harsh conditions of detention. Subsequently, Peter would marry Marta Samuilovna Skavronskaya-Kruse, a native of the lower classes, who after his death would become Empress Catherine I.

Now let's look at the greatest steps the newly-minted tsar took for Russia.

All official versions claim that Peter I was the greatest reformer who laid the foundations for the formation of the most powerful Russian Empire. In fact, the main activity of the impostor was to destroy the foundations of the former statehood and spirituality of the people. Among the most famous great "acts" of Peter there are both famous and little known facts, testifying to the true appearance and reforms of the new king.

- Introduction of the Russian form of slavery- serfdom, which completely limited the rights of peasants both on old and conquered lands. In one form or another, the consolidation of peasants has existed since the 15th century, but Peter I carried out a tough reform in relation to the peasants, completely depriving them of their rights. A remarkable fact is the fact that neither in the Russian North nor in Siberia serfdom has not become widespread.

- Carrying out tax reform with the introduction of a strict tax system. At the same time, small silver coins began to be replaced with copper ones. Having created the Ingermanland Chancellery, headed by Menshikov, Peter introduced ruinous taxes, which included taxes on private fishing, wearing a beard, and baths. Moreover, adherents of the old rituals were subject to double tax, which served as an additional incentive for the resettlement of the Old Believers to the most remote places of Siberia.

- Introduction to Rus' new system chronology, which put an end to the countdown of time “from the creation of the world.” This innovation had a strong negative impact and became an additional incentive for the gradual eradication of the original Old Believer faith.

- Transfer of the capital from Moscow to the newly built St. Petersburg. Mention of Moscow as an ancient sacred place is found in many sources, including Daniil Andreev in his work “Rose of the World”. The change of capital also served to weaken spirituality and reduce the role of the merchants in Rus'.

The destruction of ancient Russian chronicles and the beginning of rewriting the history of Rus' with the help of German professors. This activity has acquired a truly gigantic scale, which explains minimal amount surviving historical documents.

- Refusal of Russian writing, which consisted of 151 characters, and the introduction of the new alphabet of Cyril and Methodius, which consisted of 43 characters. With this, Peter dealt a severe blow to the traditions of the people and stopped access to ancient written sources.

- Cancellation of Russian measurements, such as fathom, elbow, vershok, which subsequently caused dramatic changes in traditional Russian architecture and art.

- Reducing the influence of the merchant class and the development of the industrial class, who was given gigantic powers, even to the point of creating his own pocket armies.

- The most brutal military expansion into Siberia, which became the forerunner of the final destruction of Great Tartary. At the same time, a new religion was implanted in the conquered lands, and the lands were subject to severe taxes. The time of Peter also saw the peak of the looting of Siberian graves, the destruction of holy places and the local clergy. It was under Peter the Great’s rule that numerous detachments of mound workers appeared in Western Siberia, who, in search of gold and silver, opened old burial places and plundered holy and sacred places. Many of the most valuable “finds” made up famous collection Scythian gold of Peter I.

- Destruction of the system of Russian self-government- zemstvos and the transition to a bureaucratic system, which, as a rule, was headed by hirelings from Western Europe.

- The most severe repressions against the Russian clergy, the virtual destruction of Orthodoxy. The scale of repression against the clergy was global. One of Peter’s most significant punishers was his close associate Jacob Bruce, who became famous for his punitive expeditions to Old Believer monasteries and the destruction of ancient church books and property.

- Widespread distribution of narcotic drugs in Rus' that cause rapid and sustained addiction - alcohol, coffee and tobacco.

- Complete ban on growing amaranth, from which both butter and bread were made. This plant not only improves human health, but also prolongs life by 20-30%.

- Introduction of the provincial system and strengthening of the punitive role of the army. Often the right to collect taxes was given directly to the generals. And each province was obliged to maintain separate military units.

- The actual ruin of the population. So, A.T. Fomenko and G.V. Nosovsky point out that according to the 1678 census, 791,000 households were subject to taxation. And the general census conducted in 1710 showed only 637,000 households, and this despite the fairly large number of lands subordinated to Russia during this period. It is typical, but this only affected the increase in tax taxes. Thus, in provinces where the number of households was decreasing, taxes were collected according to the data of the old census, which led to the actual plunder and destruction of the population.

- Peter I distinguished himself for his atrocities in Ukraine. Thus, in 1708, the hetman’s capital, the city of Baturyn, was completely plundered and destroyed. More than 14,000 people out of the city's 20,000 population died in the bloody massacre. At the same time, Baturin was almost completely destroyed and burned, and 40 churches and monasteries were looted and desecrated.

Contrary to popular belief, Peter I was by no means a great military leader: de facto, he did not win a single significant war. The only “successful” campaign can only be considered the Northern War, which was rather sluggish and lasted for 21 years. This war has caused irreparable damage financial system Russia and led to the actual impoverishment of the population.

One way or another, all the atrocities of Peter, called in official versions history of “reform activities” were aimed at the complete eradication of both the culture and faith of the Russian people, and the culture and religion of the peoples living in the annexed territories. In fact, the newly-minted tsar caused irreparable damage to Russia, completely changing its culture, way of life and customs.

If you study all the facts of history and events that took place but were kept secret, then there is clear evidence that Peter I was replaced by an impostor.

The process of replacing Peter I occurred during his visit to Amsterdam together with the Grand Embassy. Sources that confirm this fact should be considered.

Along with the embassy, ​​a young man about twenty-six years old, who was above average height, had a heavy build, a mole on the left cheek, and wavy hair, set out on the journey. He was an Orthodox Christian who knew the Bible by heart, had excellent education and was very fond of everything Russian.

Upon his return two years later, this man practically did not speak or write Russian, who hated everything that concerned the Russians, i.e. it turns out that he forgot everything he knew before leaving and acquired new skills, the mole on his left cheek also disappeared, and his hair became straight.

These changes happened to the young man in just two years and are therefore considered quite unexpected.

Substitution of Peter the Great

An interesting fact: the papers of the Grand Embassy make no mention of Mikhailov’s illness (Peter went there under that name), but it was no secret to the embassy representatives who this Mikhailov really was.

A sick man with chronic fever returned after this trip, with obvious traces of the use of mercury drugs, which at that time were used to treat only tropical fever.

I would like to emphasize that the Grand Embassy used the northern sea route, and tropical fever could only be contracted if you visited the south, especially the jungle.

In addition, upon the return of Peter I, in cases of complications at sea, he demonstrated extraordinary skills in boarding combat, the features of which can only be known by personally taking part in it.

This all indicates that the man who returned from the Great Embassy is an experienced sailor who fought in many battles at sea and visited the southern side.

Before leaving, Peter I could not take part in such battles, since at that time Muscovy, apart from the White Sea, had no access to the seas, especially tropical ones. And Peter I visited the White Sea extremely rarely.

After visiting the Solovetsky Monastery from a longboat that survived the storm, he personally made a memorial cross in honor of his rescue from that storm. This cross is intended for the Arkhangelsk Monastery.

It is also worth noting the fact that he did not want to see Queen Evdokia, his beloved wife with whom he corresponded and missed while he was away, and immediately sent her without any explanation to the monastery.

D.S. Merezhkovsky, in his work called “Antichrist,” wrote about a complete change in appearance, psyche and character after the return of Peter I.

The Russian embassy that accompanied the tsar included 20 people, the main one was A.D. Menshikov. Returning to Russia, the embassy was represented only by the Dutch (with the well-known Lefort) and Menshikov.

These people brought the Tsar, who spoke Russian very poorly and did not recognize any of his friends and relatives, which immediately suggested a substitution. This is what prompted Queen Sophia, who was the sister of Peter I, to take a bold step - to send the archers to the impostor. It is known from history that this cost her life, since the riot was brutally suppressed, and Sophia was hanged on the Spassky Gate. The impostor who arrived, after exiling the wife of Peter I to a monastery, where she never ended up, ordered his wife to come from Holland. He killed the brother of Peter I - Ivan V, as well as the children Alexander, Lavrenty and Natalya, although this is stated differently in the official version of history. Alexei, the youngest son, was executed after attempting to free the real Tsar from the Bastille.

The impostor Peter I transformed Russia as a conqueror. Russian self-government was destroyed, and it was replaced by bureaucracy foreigners who forcibly promoted debauchery, drunkenness and theft in the country. He turned the peasants into slaves who were subordinate to the nobles (although this is attributed to Ivan IV to idealize the image). There was a defeat of the merchants, as well as the establishment of industrialists. The clergy also survived the defeat, since they represented the main bearer of Russian culture. Because of this, Orthodoxy and attempts to bring it closer to Catholicism were destroyed, which inevitably led to atheism. This impostor also introduced smoking and initiated the consumption of alcohol and coffee. The Old Russian calendar was destroyed, and civilization became 5503 years younger. The Russian chronicles first took everything to St. Petersburg and then burned it, and the German “professors” wrote a different Russian history.

Under the pretext of fighting the old faith, the elders who lived for more than three hundred years were destroyed. There was a ban on growing amaranth and eating bread from it, which was the main food for Russian people, which helped destroy longevity on earth, which still existed in Russia at that time.

The liar carried out the abolition of natural measures, such as fathom, elbow, etc., which destroyed ancient Russian architecture and art, and life became ugly. The title system was replaced by the European one, and accordingly the peasants were reduced from class. Russian writing was destroyed, since 151 characters were replaced by 43 characters that made up the writing of Cyril and Methodius. The Russian army was disarmed because the archers were exterminated as a caste, which had special abilities and weapons, and instead they introduced firearms and piercing weapons, and the army was dressed in a different uniform - first French, and then German. The popular name for such regiments is “amusing”.

But the most important crime of this person is rightfully considered to be the destruction of education in Russia, since the place of a universal independent scientist was replaced by a specialist who depended on others.

Before the appearance of this liar, Russians did not know what wine was, and on his orders, everyone was given free water from barrels right in the square. The purpose of this act is to remove from memory past life. During the time of Peter, they persecuted babies who, after birth, remembered past lives and knew how to speak, although they began to persecute them since the time of John IV. This created a curse and so today a child born who speaks only lives for about two hours.

After such actions, no one could call Peter the Great, but already in the 19th century, after all the horrors had been forgotten, stories appeared about Peter the innovator, who did a lot of useful things for the benefit of Russia. Particular attention is paid to potatoes and tomatoes brought from Europe. Before the reign of Peter, there were 108 types of vegetables, nuts, fruits, berries, and cereals, which corresponded to the number of Russian gods. And after Peter, only a few sacred species remained. In Europe, such destruction was carried out much earlier, especially for cereals and nodules associated with human reincarnation. The only good thing the impostor did was introduce the use of potatoes, since the Old Believers did not eat them. Plants that were considered sacred, taken at certain times and were destroyed, left the body devoid of divine reactions. The diet became mixed, which began to provoke a putrefactive process in the body, and people stopped smelling fragrant, but on the contrary began to exude a stench.

Nowadays, fruit is a concept that unites fruits, nuts, berries, and earlier they were called gifts, and fruits were gifts of shrubs and herbs. The campaign regarding the impoverishment of our diet continues today, since kalega and sorghum are almost never consumed, and poppy cannot be grown at all. Many sacred gifts today are known to us only by name.

What happened to the real Peter I? He was captured by the Jesuits and placed in a Swedish fortress. But the king was lucky enough to give a letter to the Swedish king Charles XII, and he helped him get out of captivity. Joint forces organized a campaign against the false king, but the Jesuit-Masonic brethren from Europe and Russian troops (whose relatives were held hostage so that the troops would not side with Charles) were able to win at Poltava. The real Peter I was captured again and sent further - to the Bastille, where he died some time later. He had an iron mask on his face, which caused a lot of talk in Europe and France. King Charles XII of Sweden escaped to Turkey, and from there made an attempt to again organize a campaign against the false king.

It seems that it would be worth killing the real Tsar Peter and not creating problems for himself. But the invaders needed a conflict, and without him alive behind bars, the wars would not have succeeded - neither the Russian-Swedish, nor the Russian-Tatar, which helped with the organization of new states: Sweden, Turkey. In the 18th century, there was talk throughout Russia that Peter was an impostor, and this gave the opportunity to historians who came from the Germans (Miller, Bayer, Schlozer, Kuhn) and distorted the history of the country, without any difficulty to call all the kings false rulers who had no right to the throne, and those who could not be accused of this changed their surname and they became Rurik.

Roman law can be considered the genius of Satanism, since it underlies some of the constitutions of today's states. They created it, despite all the ancient canons and ideas about society. For the first time in history, judicial power was taken away from the priests and transferred to people who were without clergy, and this suggests that the best have faded into the background, and power is in the hands of anyone.

Roman law is presented to people as the crown of all human achievements, when in fact it is the pinnacle of disorder and irresponsibility. The laws of the state under him are based on prohibitions and punishments, which corresponds to negative destructive emotions. This can lead to the fact that society will not be interested in implementing laws, and officials will be opposed to the people.

Unlike Roman law, the Russian state was built not on laws with prohibitions, but on civil conscience, which created a balance between prohibitions and liberties. The famous historian from Byzantium, Procopius of Caesarea, wrote that the Slavs had all the laws only in their heads. Ancient society also had a regulation of relations, which was based on the principles of law. It is from this word that we now have the concept of “canon”. If you take into account the principles of Kon, then a person will be able to avoid making mistakes and reincarnate. Principles are above the law. The word “law” itself means “beyond the law.” The commandments are much more than a law, which is why they have superiority. The commandments have the power to improve human organization and thinking, which can make the principles of law even better.

I.L. Solonevich, who experienced all the pros and cons of Western democracy, wrote that in addition to the Russian monarchy, which already exists for a long time and rests thanks to the people's government, merchants and clergy (we are talking about pre-Petrine times), there is also a dictatorship and a monarchy, which replace each other every 20-30 years.

Diderot, Rousseau, D'Alembert already wrote about hunger, terror, wars, the defeat of France in 1814, 1817, 1940 in the past tense. Hegel, Mommsen, Nietzsche, Rosenberg also already talked about terror, wars, famine and defeats in 1918 and 1945 in the past tense. But the Chernyshevskys, Lavrovs, Mikhailovskys, Milyukovs and Lenins still have hunger, terror, wars in their texts, i.e. defeat is only in the future and it is inevitable.

Solonevich believes that not all philosophers themselves learned ideas that can destroy society; they often helped them in this.

V.A. Shemshuk “The Return of Paradise to Earth”

Peter I has a phrase that demonstrates his attitude towards the Russian people. It is documented and the meaning is this: with any European people you can achieve your goal using humane methods, but with the Russians - not, since these are animals who need to be transformed into people. It is very difficult to believe that it was the animals who thanked him by calling him the Great.

Russophobes explain this by saying that the tsar turned animals into people and it is thanks to this that Russia is called Great. And these grateful people have already called him Great. Or is this how gratitude is shown on the part of the Romanov masters for the fact that all traces of the greatness of the Russians as a people were destroyed, which gave no rest to those who wanted to create a Great History for themselves.

There are many interesting facts about Peter I. Now there is information that the reign of this tsar cost the Russian people 20 million human lives, as discussed in the article by N.V. Levashov “Visible and invisible genocide”.

One of the reasons that gave rise to the version of the substitution of Tsar Peter I was the research of A.T. Fomenko and G.V. Nosovsky

The beginning of these studies was the discoveries made during the study of an exact copy of the throne of Ivan the Terrible.

A. Fomenko and G. Nosovsky, based on the table, found out that the real name, which falls on the official date of birth of Peter I, is Isaac. This explains the name of the main cathedral of Tsarist Russia. Thus, the Brockhaus and Efron dictionary says: “St. Isaac’s Cathedral is the main temple in St. Petersburg, dedicated to the name of St. Isaac of Dalmatia, whose memory is honored on May 30, the birthday of Peter the Great.”

A notable fact is that in honor of the suppression of the Streltsy revolt, a commemorative medal was issued with inscriptions in Latin, which had never before been used in the minting of coins and medals in Rus'.

8. The imprisonment of his legal wife Evdokia Lopukhina in a monastery, which the tsar did in absentia while at the Grand Embassy in London. Moreover, after the death of Peter, Lopukhina, by order of Catherine I, was transferred to the Shlisselburg fortress, which was famous for its harsh conditions of detention. Subsequently, Peter would marry Marta Samuilovna Skavronskaya-Kruse, a native of the lower classes, who after his death would become Empress Catherine I.

Now let's look at the greatest steps the newly-minted tsar took for Russia.

All official versions claim that Peter I was the greatest reformer who laid the foundations for the formation of the most powerful Russian Empire. In fact, the main activity of the impostor was to destroy the foundations of the former statehood and spirituality of the people. Among the most famous great “acts” of Peter there are both well-known and little-known facts that testify to the true appearance and reforms of the new king.

A remarkable fact is the fact that serfdom was not widespread either in the Russian North or in Siberia.

Carrying out tax reform with the introduction of a strict tax system. At the same time, small silver coins began to be replaced with copper ones.

The introduction of a new chronology system in Rus', which put an end to the counting of time “from the creation of the world.” This innovation had a strong negative impact and became an additional incentive for the gradual eradication of the original Old Believer faith.

Transfer of the capital from Moscow to the newly built St. Petersburg. Mention of Moscow as an ancient sacred place is found in many sources, including Daniil Andreev in his work “Rose of the World”. The change of capital also served to weaken spirituality and reduce the role of the merchants in Rus'.

The destruction of ancient Russian chronicles and the beginning of rewriting the history of Rus' with the help of German professors. This activity acquired a truly gigantic scale, which explains the minimal number of surviving historical documents.

Refusal of Russian writing, which consisted of 151 characters, and the introduction of a new alphabet of Cyril and Methodius, which consisted of 43 characters. With this, Peter dealt a severe blow to the traditions of the people and stopped access to ancient written sources.

The abolition of Russian measures such as sazhen, kolot, vershok, which subsequently caused dramatic changes in traditional Russian architecture and art.

Reducing the influence of the merchant class and the development of the industrial class, which was given gigantic powers, even to the point of creating their own pocket armies.

The most brutal military expansion into Siberia, which became the precursor to the final destruction of Great Tartaria. At the same time, a new religion was implanted in the conquered lands, and the lands were subject to severe taxes. The time of Peter also saw the peak of the looting of Siberian graves, the destruction of holy places and the local clergy. It was under Peter the Great’s rule that numerous detachments of mound workers appeared in Western Siberia, who, in search of gold and silver, opened old burial places and plundered holy and sacred places. Many of the most valuable “finds” made up the famous collection of Scythian gold of Peter I.

The destruction of the system of Russian self-government - zemstvo and the transition to a bureaucratic system, which, as a rule, was headed by hirelings from Western Europe.

The most severe repressions against the Russian clergy, the virtual destruction of Orthodoxy and the Christian Old Believers. The scale of repression against the clergy was global. One of Peter’s most significant punishers was his close associate Jacob Bruce, who became famous for his punitive expeditions to Old Believer monasteries and the destruction of ancient church books and property.

The widespread distribution in Rus' of narcotic drugs that cause rapid and sustained addiction - alcohol, coffee and tobacco.

A complete ban on the cultivation of amaranth, from which both butter and bread were made. This plant not only improves human health, but also prolongs life by 20-30%.

Introduction of the provincial system and strengthening of the punitive role of the army. Often the right to collect taxes was given directly to the generals. And each province was obliged to maintain separate military units.

The actual ruin of the population. So, A.T. Fomenko and G.V. Nosovsky point out that according to the 1678 census, 791,000 households were subject to taxation. And the general census conducted in 1710 showed only 637,000 households, and this despite the fairly large number of lands subordinated to Russia during this period. It is typical, but this only affected the increase in tax taxes. Thus, in provinces where the number of households was decreasing, taxes were collected according to the data of the old census, which led to the actual plunder and destruction of the population.

Peter I also distinguished himself for his atrocities in Ukraine. Thus, in 1708, the hetman’s capital, the city of Baturyn, was completely plundered and destroyed. More than 14,000 people out of the city's 20,000 population died in the bloody massacre. At the same time, Baturin was almost completely destroyed and burned, and 40 churches and monasteries were looted and desecrated.

Contrary to popular belief, Peter I was by no means a great military leader: de facto, he did not win a single significant war. The only “successful” campaign can only be considered the Northern War, which was rather sluggish and lasted for 21 years. This war caused irreparable damage to the Russian financial system and led to the virtual impoverishment of the population.

One way or another, all of Peter’s atrocities, called “reform activities” in official versions of history, were aimed at the complete eradication of both the culture and faith of the Russian people, and the culture and religion of the peoples living in the annexed territories. In fact, the newly-minted tsar caused irreparable damage to Russia, completely changing its culture, way of life and customs.

Isn’t it time to involve geneticists in the issue of Peter 1?

Peter the Great - this image was created in the history of the Great Russian People for the third Tsar from the Romanov dynasty. Great is a very strong word. What did Pyotr Alekseevich Romanov do that was so “great” to earn such a great name for himself in history?!

“With other European peoples you can achieve goals in humane ways, but with Russians - not so... I am not dealing with people, but with animals, which I want to transform into people” - a similar documented phrase of Peter 1 very clearly conveys his attitude towards the Russian people. It’s hard to believe that these same “animals,” in gratitude for this, nicknamed him the Great.

Russophobes will immediately try to explain everything by saying that yes, he made people out of animals and that’s the only reason why Russia became Great and the “animals” who became people gratefully called him the Great for this. Or maybe this is the gratitude of the Romanov owners for the perfectly fulfilled obligations to destroy precisely the traces of the greatness of the Russian People, which haunted those who wanted to create for themselves Great History, the ruling circles of states that until recently were provincial outlying provinces? And it was precisely this very Greatness of the Russian People that did not allow them to create it?

One of his “great deeds” for the benefit of the Russian people was the transition to the Christian calendar, as a result of which 5,508 years of history disappeared from Russian history, after the Creation of the World in the Star Temple and all history before that. This is such a “trifle”, some twenty to thirty thousand years. Peter 1 declared himself Emperor of the Russian Empire, and these same “unnecessary” many thousands of years of the past of the Russian people, in the best possible way, should have served to justify the title of Emperor, as a sign of the revival of former glory.

But, before we talk about the “revival of the glory” of our ancestors (who, in theory, should be Russian - Slavs), first, let’s pay attention to the size of the “Great” Empire of Peter the Great. On all uncorrected maps before 1772, including the maps included in the first edition of the Encyclopedia Britannica, the territory under the Romanov dynasty “extended” in the west from Riga, Smolensk to Belgorod, ending in Little Tartary, better known as the Zaporozhye Sich.

In the south, the border ran along the Don, bending around the Volga in the lower and middle reaches, passing north of Samara and at this latitude abutting the Ural (Ripean) mountains. In the east, the border ran along the Ural Mountains, abutting the Kara Sea. In the north, bordering Lapland and Sweden. And the Romanov Empire was called Moscow Tartary (Muscovite Tartary). It turns out interestingly that the Tsar of Moscow, on all European maps until the end of the 18th century, was called the ruler of Moscow Tartary, on some - even the Duke of Moscow.

In the same Encyclopedia Britannica, the Russian Empire, better known as Great Tartary, refers to the territory east of the Don, at the latitude of Samara to the Ural Mountains and the entire territory east of the Ural Mountains to Pacific Ocean in Asian:

“TARTARY, a vast country in the northern parts of Asia, bounded by Siberia on the north and west: this is called Great Tartary. The Tartars who lie south of Moscow and Siberia, are those of Astracan, Circassia, and Dagistan, located north-west of the Caspian-sea; the Calmuc Tartars, who lie between Siberia and the Caspian-sea; the Usbec Tartars and Moguls, who lie north of Persia and India; and lastly, those of Tibet, who lie north-west of China".

(“Tartaria, a huge country in the northern part of Asia, bordering Siberia in the north and west: which is called Great Tartaria. Those Tartars living south of Muscovy and Siberia are called Astrakhan, Cherkassy and Dagestan, living northwest of the Caspian Sea are called Kalmyk Tartars and who occupy the territory between Siberia and the Caspian Sea; Uzbek Tartars and Mongols, who live north of Persia and India and, finally, Tibetans, living northwest of China").

As follows from the Encyclopedia Britannica of 1771, there was a huge country of Tartaria, the provinces of which had different sizes. The largest province of this empire was called Great Tartary and covered the lands of Western Siberia, Eastern Siberia and the Far East. In the southeast it was adjacent to Chinese Tartary [please do not confuse it with China]. To the south of Great Tartary there was the so-called Independent Tartary [ middle Asia]. Tibetan Tartary (Tibet) was located northwest of China and southwest of Chinese Tartary.

In the north of India was the Mongol Tartary (Mogul Empire) [modern Pakistan]. Uzbek Tartary (Bukaria) was sandwiched between Independent Tartary in the north; Chinese Tartary in the northeast; Tibetan Tartary in the southeast; Mongol Tartary in the south and Persia in the southwest. In Europe there were also several Tartaries: Muscovy or Moscow Tartary (Muscovite Tartary), Kuban Tartary (Kuban Tartars) and Little Tartary.

What Tartaria means was discussed above and, as follows from the meaning of this word, it has nothing to do with modern Tatars has nothing to do with modern Mongolia, just as the Mongol Empire has nothing to do with modern Mongolia. Mongol Tartary (Mogul Empire) is located on the site of modern Pakistan, while modern Mongolia is located in the north of modern China or between Great Tartary and Chinese Tartary. There are thousands of kilometers of distance between the Mongol Empire of the eighteenth century and modern Mongolia, and they lie on opposite sides of the greatest Himalayan mountain range on earth and were inhabited by completely different peoples who had nothing in common with each other. And, in general, the word Mogul (Mogul) is of Greek origin and means Great and, thus, has nothing to do with the self-name of any Asian tribe.

Thus, looking at the maps of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, we will see at least nine to ten different Tartaries, which suggests that, until quite recently, they were parts of one whole, a single Slavic-Aryan Empire, in the Middle Ages in Western Europe called Great Tartary. The reason for the appearance of so many Tartaries is the splitting off of outlying provinces from the Slavic-Aryan Empire (Great Tartary), as a consequence of the weakening of the Empire, as a result of the invasion of the Dzungar hordes, which captured and completely destroyed the capital of this Empire - Asgard-Irian in 7038 from S.M. Z.X. or 1530 AD.

But, even after the loss of the outlying provinces, at the end of the eighteenth century, the Slavic-Aryan Empire was the most big country world and included part of south-eastern Europe, Western Siberia, Eastern Siberia, the Far East, a significant part of North America and many islands and archipelagos. Isn’t it true, an impressive list of territories over which the hand of the Romanov rule did not extend until the time of Catherine II. But, more about this a little later, but for now, let’s return to the era of “Peter the Great”.

At the time of Peter 1, his “great empire” was the territory of Muscovy (Moscovy) or Moscow Tartary (Muscovite Tartary), which, again, suggests that, relatively recently, it itself was a province of the Slavic-Aryan Empire (Great Tartary), the separation of which occurred during the reign of Dmitry Donskoy, who seized absolute power in the Vladimir-Suzdal principality. Before Dmitry Donskoy, absolute monarchical power did not exist in this principality-province of the Slavic-Aryan Empire. The position of the worldly Grand Duke was not hereditary, but appointed from among the most worthy people princely family.

In fact, initially, princes were people who possessed knowledge and skills, the predisposition to which was transmitted through genes. “Knaz” in the proto-language (i.e., at the genetic level) means: “related to the perfection (refinement) of the Earth” or, simply, knaz - “the intimacy and refinement of the Earth.” In other words, people who achieved enlightenment with knowledge became princes - evolutionarily advanced in relation to the bulk. Not everyone could achieve enlightenment with knowledge, and it could not be bought, stolen, or appropriated. When such a state was achieved, such a person seemed to glow from within, which many could see and feel. That is why such people were referred to as “Shining”, which later, after the essence of this concept was distorted, became the norm for addressing everyone who “on paper” was a “prince” as “Your Excellency.”

Of course, the properties and qualities necessary for such enlightenment by knowledge were fixed on genetic level and were passed on to children. But, genetics was only a necessary condition To achieve enlightenment with knowledge, the personal qualities of carriers of such genetics were sufficient. Therefore, not all children, and sometimes none of the prince’s children at all, achieved enlightenment with knowledge. Or some of those who reached the initial stages of enlightenment, due to misunderstanding, or because of the best intentions, or because of distorted personal ambitions, could “break the woods.”

This is what is observed in the actions of Dmitry Donskoy, who, sufficiently poisoned by the poison of the ideas of Christianity, considered absolute personal power the only way to achieve prosperity for your homeland. His abolition of the position of thousand, after the death of his last thousand, the noble boyar Vasily Velyaminov, was an irreparable mistake of Dmitry Donskoy, which bore fruit in the form of the “Great Russian Revolution” of 1917.

The unreasonable actions of the son of the last thousand - boyar Vasily Velyaminov - Ivan Velyaminov, who, having lost this position for himself, betrayed Dmitry Donskoy and became the head of the opposition to Dmitry Donskoy. Demanding the restoration of ancient traditions, he turned for help to the enemies of the Slavic-Aryan Empire, the Genoese merchants, who were backed by the Catholic Church and all the monarchs of Western European countries, who themselves relatively recently became from appointed heads of provinces, absolute rulers in “their domains” and fiercely hated Slavic-Aryan Empire.

The attraction of obvious enemies of the Slavic-Russians by Ivan Velyaminov to his side only further convinced Dmitry Donskoy of the correctness of his actions. The mistake of a patriot of the Russian land, who, without a doubt, was Dmitry Donskoy, and the blindness of the offended noble boyar Ivan Velyaminov, led to a civil war within the province, which, during the life of Dmitry Donskoy, would be called Moscow Tartaria. As a result of this civil war, the army (horde) of Dmitry Donskoy completely defeated the army (horde) of Ivan Velyaminov (Mamaia), which included, along with Genoese mercenaries and knights of Western Europe, squads of Russian princes, Russian Cossacks who stood for the old traditions .

If boyar Ivan Velyaminov had not turned for help to the obvious enemies of the Russian land, modern history could have been completely different. It seems that this “help” was cleverly offered to him, and personal resentment made Ivan Velyaminov blind in the choice of means to defend his rights and rendered “ disservice"Russian statehood. The whole point is that the presence of the position of tysyatsky, who owned military power, almost equal to the power of the Grand Duke, created a balance of power, not allowing either the Grand Duke, appointed by the civil ruler of the province, who, in fact, was Dmitry Donskoy, nor the tysyatsky, to whose position Ivan Velyaminov claimed, which, by the way, was also an appointed position, to receive absolute power - power that inevitably leads the country to disaster.

Absolute power corrupts, especially, a person who is spiritually immature or immature, which, in fact, turned out to be both main characters in a historical play, the script of which was carefully thought out by the same director. Certain words were spoken to both, at certain moments, in a certain emotional state, and both, unfortunately, began to play according to notes that were clearly not written by them themselves, and the history of the whole world “took” a completely different path and, moreover, one of the worst.

Nevertheless, what happened happened and the next part of the Slavic-Aryan Empire almost completely separated from the mother body of the Empire. It separated and became practically independent from the metropolis, but, nevertheless, one of the main characters did not play quite as expected from him.

Dmitry Donskoy, having received absolute power, managed to maintain complete independence from behind-the-scenes players and preserve most of the traditions accepted in the Slavic-Aryan Empire and, thereby, maintain fairly close and friendly relations with the latter, which forced the directors to look for other ways to destroy the Slavic-Aryan Empire . The non-interference of the main military forces of the Empire in what was happening in their western province was caused by the fact that, at that time, they were involved in military conflicts on their far south-eastern borders with the hordes of the Dzungars, who were slowly but surely forced out by the Chinese and who had nothing left another way to move north and northwest, and this meant one thing - a continuous war of destruction. The result of this confrontation was the destruction of the capital of the Empire of Asgard-Iria in 7038 AD or in 1530 AD.

Thus, before the appearance of Pyotr Alekseevich Romanov on the historical arena, his grandfather, working off his debts to his masters, destroyed the Rank and Pedigree Books. It would seem that what was so special, well, the Romanovs destroyed these books in order to hide their usurpation of the royal power from everyone, well, they wrote their Velvet Book in return. What's so special about this?!

And what is special is that, thanks to this, the falsification of Russian history became possible: with the invitation by the “primitive” Slavs of the Varangians to rule, the emergence of the Mongol-Tatar yoke for three hundred years, which simply did not exist in nature, since it was the Russians, the Slavs and they were Mongols, Tartars, as the inhabitants of Western European countries called our ancestors...

Peter “The Great” is a very interesting and controversial historical figure. Take, for example, the rumors about his substitution during the trip of young Peter with the Great Embassy. A young man of twenty-six years old, above average height, thickly built, physically healthy, with a mole on his left cheek, with wavy hair, well-educated, loving everything Russian, an Orthodox (or more correctly, orthodox) Christian, who knows the Bible by heart, is leaving with the embassy. etc. and so on.

Two years later, a man returns who practically does not speak Russian, who hates everything Russian, who never learned to write in Russian until the end of his life, having forgotten everything he knew before leaving for the Grand Embassy and miraculously acquired new skills and abilities, without a mole on his face. left cheek, with straight hair, a sickly man who looked forty years old. Isn't it true that somewhat unexpected changes occurred with the young man during his two years of absence.

What is curious is that the papers of the Grand Embassy do not mention that Mikhailov (under this name young Peter went with the embassy) fell ill with a fever, but for the embassy officials it was no secret who “Mikhailov” actually was. A man returns from a trip, sick with chronic fever, with traces of long-term use of mercury drugs, which were then used to treat tropical fever. For reference, it should be noted that the Grand Embassy traveled along the northern sea route, while tropical fever can be “earned” in southern waters, and even then only after being in the jungle.

In addition, after returning from the Grand Embassy, ​​Peter 1, during naval battles, demonstrated extensive experience in boarding combat, which has specific features that can only be mastered through experience. Which requires personal participation in many boarding battles. All this together suggests that the man who returned with the Great Embassy was an experienced sailor who participated in many naval battles and sailed a lot in the southern seas.

Before the trip, Peter 1 did not take part in naval battles, if only because during his childhood and youth, Muscovy or Moscow Tartaria did not have access to the seas, with the exception of the White Sea, which simply cannot be called tropical. And Peter 1 did not visit it often, and only as an honorary passenger. During his visit to the Solovetsky Monastery, the longboat he was on was miraculously saved during a storm, and he personally made a memorial cross for the Archangel Cathedral, on the occasion of salvation in the storm.

And if we add to this the fact that his beloved wife (Queen Eudokia), whom he missed and often corresponded with when he was away, upon returning from the Grand Embassy, ​​without even seeing her, without explanation, he sent to a nunnery . Upon returning from the Great Embassy in the summer of 7207 AD or 1699 AD, almost simultaneously, P. Gordon, who was the “mentor” of young Peter, and his “friend” Lefort “suddenly” died. It was at their suggestion that young Peter had the desire to travel incognito with the Great Embassy.

We can continue to list the differences between the person who went to the Grand Embassy and the one who returned from it. Many facts speak in favor of the substitution of Peter 1 during this trip. Most likely, the substitution occurred due to the fact that the real Peter turned out to be far from being as accommodating as the owners of P. Gordon and Lefort wanted him to be. In such a scenario, no one will envy the fate of the real Peter. One way or another, the real Peter 1, or foundling, accomplished all his “Great Deeds” only after his return from the Great Embassy. Let's refresh our memory of these "great things":

1. Introduction, immediately after the arrival, of the Christian calendar from the summer of 7208 from S.M.Z.H. or from 1700 A.D. Raised as an Orthodox sovereign, he knew very well about the Christian calendar, but, nevertheless, did not even think about chronology reform. Even in the very word “chronology” there are ancient Russian traditions of counting - summer... from the Creation of the World in the Star Temple (the signing of a peace treaty between the Slavic-Aryan Empire and Ancient China). Thus, the multi-thousand-year history of the Russian people disappears, as if by magic, and conditions arise for the fabrication, somewhat later, of a modern version of this history by the “great Russian historiographers”... Bayer, Miller and Schlozer. After several generations, few people remembered what and how it was before Peter the Great.

2. The introduction of serfdom, actually slavery, for one’s own people, slavery, which never existed in the Slavic-Aryan Empire and in any of its provinces. Even prisoners of war captured during hostilities did not become slaves, in the usual sense of the word. Captured enemies did not humiliate themselves, they worked in the “master’s” household as workers and ate with him from the same table, slept in the same house. After several years of punishment, the prisoner of war was offered to either return to his homeland, or stay, as equal in all respects, start a family, etc. The whole “slavery” consisted in the fact that his work was not paid. And, with such an attitude among Russians towards people in general, at the beginning of the eighteenth century, Russians themselves were made slaves, in the worst sense of the word, and this was done by none other than the sovereign father, whose decisions were considered pleasing to the Lord God.

For many thousands of years, no one has ever been able to turn the Russian people into slavery; the Russian soul does not accept slavery with all its fibers. But the enemies of the Russian people find the only possible option for the enslavement of the Russian people - through an absolute monarchy. The establishment of an absolute monarchy by Dmitry Donskoy brought its first, but, unfortunately, not its last bitter fruits and served as the beginning of the genocide of the Russian people, about which, for some reason, no one is in a hurry to make a fuss and stand up for their rights.

3. Peter’s “reforms” and wars also had a negative economic effect. The population fell from 18 to 16 million people between 1700 and 1725. The introduction of serfdom, with its slave labor, set the economy far back. While almost all countries of Western Europe were freeing themselves from the remnants of slavery, realizing that without this they were doomed, in Muscovy their protege introduced slavery. If Peter 1 really cared about the interests of the Russian people, then, after visiting a number of European countries with the Grand Embassy, ​​he could not help but notice this and pay attention to it. And if neither himself nor his embassy employees who permanently live in the missions noticed, then this can only mean the following:

a) He is a useless statesman and political figure who should not be allowed within a shot of running the state. According to the old tradition, the destruction of which was started by Rurik and completed by one of his descendants, Dmitry Donskoy, such a person could never become the head of the state.

b) Peter 1 is a mentally and mentally retarded person, who, moreover, should not be allowed to helm the state.

c) Peter 1 was recruited or zombied by anti-Russian forces during his trip with the Grand Embassy. Recruitment is doubtful, due to the fact that the recruiters could not offer him anything that he would not already have, being an absolute monarch.

d) Peter 1 was lured into the Grand Embassy by cunning by his false friends and, in one of the countries visited by the embassy, ​​he was replaced by an outwardly similar person who was not even a double. Numerous differences between the person who left with the Great Embassy and the one who returned from it and the analysis of actions after returning make this assumption very probable and, in principle, the only logical one.

4. Petrine church reforms were directed both against Orthodox Christianity and against the Magi-guardians of Slavic-Aryan Vedism who went underground. Peter 1 ordered the removal of old books from all monasteries, cities and villages for “making copies”, and no one saw the books brought to the capital after that, just as no one saw the copies “made” of these books. It is also curious that failure to comply with this order was punishable by deprivation of life. It's a strange concern for books, isn't it?

5. The expulsion of Cossack hordes (troops) from the borders of Muscovy forced Peter 1 to begin forming an army according to the Western European model. For this purpose, Peter 1 attracted military personnel from European countries, providing them with enormous benefits and privileges in relation to Russian officers. Foreigners despised everything Russian and mocked the Russian men, driven into the army by the monarch's will. The dominance of foreigners in the army, on public service, in the system of education and upbringing of the younger generation, led to the emergence of confrontation between the aristocracy and the people. Disclaimer Cossack troops because of their support of old traditions, it was a big strategic mistake. It was the principle of Cossack lavas that the Bolsheviks used when creating their cavalry armies, which played a decisive role in the civil war of 1918-1924.

6. The defeat of the Swedish army led to the weakening of Sweden and the loss of its influence on the countries of Europe, which led to their strengthening, and due to the victories of the Russian troops. The territorial gains were incommensurate with the losses suffered by the country - two million people. At that time, the entire population of Europe did not exceed twenty million. It was with Peter 1 that the genocide of the Russian people, the Slavs in general, began. It was from Perth 1 that the lives of Russians became a bargaining chip in the dirty political games of Western European politicians.

7. Peter the Great “cut a window” to Europe, ensured Russia’s access to Gulf of Finland, after the return of old Russian territories, as a result of the victory over the Swedes. It would be correct to say that he “opened a window” to Muscovy for European countries. Before Peter 1, the penetration of foreigners into the lands of Muscovy was very limited. Basically, embassy people, some merchants and a very small number of travelers received the right to cross the border. Under Peter 1, crowds of adventurers and adventurers poured into Muscovy, eager to fill their empty pockets with the riches of the Russian land. It is curious that all of them were provided with enormous benefits and advantages in relation to both the truly Russian aristocracy and the Russian merchants and business people.

8. To maintain his army, Peter 1 needed huge funds, most of which were immediately stolen, both by Russian rogues and by his beloved foreigners. Moreover, most of them were stolen by foreigners, many of whom, in their homeland, were poor or came from impoverished noble families, or were second, third, etc., sons and could not hope for any inheritance. Some of them, having filled their pockets with unprecedented wealth, returned to their homeland, while others preferred to continue making money at the expense of the people who were strangers to them.

9. Peter 1 introduces many taxes to replenish the rapidly emptying treasury. It is he who brings vodka from Sweden and creates a state vodka monopoly. Vodka was sold in state taverns, taverns and pits (horse changing stations). Before the Romanovs, drunkenness was a vice in Rus', for which, even in the time of Ivan IV, people were imprisoned and subject to a heavy fine. It was Peter 1 who began to promote drunkenness in Rus', launching a wide advertising campaign, instilling drunkenness at all levels of society, forcing people to drink by his own example. The vodka monopoly brought fabulous profits to the treasury, which was necessary for his goals. The money paid by the treasury began to quickly return back, at minimal cost.

IN Soviet times, the Bolsheviks “increased” the experience of Peter “the Great” by making vodka a liquid currency, through which they robbed people, taking away from them even those pitiful pennies that were paid to them in the form of salaries, etc. This list could be continued almost indefinitely. All the “great activities” of Perth 1, by the time of his death in the summer of 7233 from SMZH or 1725, had led Muscovy (which, under him, became known as the Russian Empire) to a deplorable economic state, comparable only to Time of Troubles, in the creation of which the Romanovs and their relatives played a significant role. The victories over Sweden brought enormous disasters to the Russian people, or more precisely, to the part of them groaning under the yoke of the Romanovs, a real yoke, and not the Mongol-Tatar yoke invented by them, which simply never existed.

Let's take a look at the “Great Empire” of Peter the Great (see Fig. 1).

The map of 1717 shows Muscovy during the time of Peter I. The Romanov possessions, of course, significantly exceeded the size of any European country, but, nevertheless, they were not the Russian Empire whose history is presented to us by “Russian” historians. In the east, the border of the Empire of Peter I runs along the western spurs of the Ural Mountains and nothing more!

It is curious that this map shows two Novgorods as cities (Novogrod - Novgorod on Ladoga and Novogorod - Novgorod on the Volga) and a region within the Golden Ring, a group of cities of which on the map is called NOVOGROD with a capital letter.

This confirms the assumption of A.T. Fomenko that in Rus' the metropolis of the Golden Ring was called Mister Veliky Novgorod, and not a small city on Ladoga. On the map, even Moscow, being the capital, is not highlighted as Mr. Velikiy Novgorod- a group of cities forming the trade and cultural center of Muscovy.

This is another confirmation of the falsification of Russian history.

Unfortunately, there is practically nothing in the history of the Russian people that, in one form or another, has not been falsified. Maybe it’s time for all of us Russians to learn the truth about the Great Past of our people, and not the IS(Z)TORY(I)I, served to us on a “plate”?! Only, the question arises - who benefits from such a “saucer”?!

“About Essence, Mind and many other things” and “Possibilities of Mind”.

Nowadays, few people know that on Russian soil the term “Orthodoxy” was borrowed from the Old Believers and introduced into Christianity only in the 17th century by Patriarch Nikon, during the time of Alexei Mikhailovich Romanov, and before that, Byzantine Christianity in Rus' was called orthodox, i.e. true believers. The Romanov dynasty destroyed the Great Russia or Ancient Rus'.

Peter the Great was especially successful in this, who:

1) destroyed a single Power. India, Persia, Turkey, China, Scandinavia, Palestine, and Bulgaria withdrew. Serbia, Siberia,

Far East, etc.;

2) betrayed the Ancient Faith of the Ancestors. Destroyed the Old Believers and Magi. Suppressed the uprisings of the Russian people;

3) untied civil war between the center and the provinces, removed bells from churches for cannons;

4) slaughtered the boyars and destroyed the old Family Books

5) allowed incest, introduced the fashion of marrying foreign women, allowed family ties, which marked the beginning of the genetic degeneration of the nation, especially the ruling strata;

6) reformed the calendar, completely taking away Russia’s past. I began to write history and laws for myself;

7) abolished the patriarchate and introduced a Synod.

Peter I, who received the nickname Peter the Great for his services to Russia, is a figure for Russian history not just iconic, but key. Peter 1 created Russian Empire, so it turned out the last king of All Rus' and, accordingly, the first All-Russian Emperor. The son of the Tsar, the godson of the Tsar, the brother of the Tsar - Peter himself was proclaimed the head of the country, and at that time the boy was barely 10 years old. Initially, he had a formal co-ruler Ivan V, but from the age of 17 he already ruled independently, and in 1721 Peter I became emperor.

For Russia, the years of the reign of Peter I were a time of large-scale reforms. He significantly expanded the territory of the state, built the beautiful city of St. Petersburg, incredibly boosted the economy by founding a whole network of metallurgical and glass factories, and also reducing imports of foreign goods to a minimum. Moreover, Peter Great first from Russian rulers began to adopt from Western countries their best ideas. But since all the reforms of Peter the Great were achieved through violence against the population and the eradication of all dissent, the personality of Peter the Great still evokes diametrically opposed assessments among historians.

Childhood and youth of Peter I

The biography of Peter I initially implied his future reign, since he was born into the family of Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich Romanov and his wife Natalya Kirillovna Naryshkina. It is noteworthy that Peter the Great turned out to be the 14th child of his father, but the first-born for his mother. It is also worth noting that the name Peter was completely unconventional for both dynasties of his ancestors, so historians still cannot figure out where he got this name from.

The boy was only four years old when the Tsar Father died. His elder brother and godfather Fyodor III Alekseevich ascended the throne, took guardianship of his brother and ordered him to be given the best possible education. However, Peter the Great had big problems with this. He was always very inquisitive, but just at that moment Orthodox Church started a war against foreign influence, and all Latin teachers were removed from the court. Therefore, the prince was taught by Russian clerks, who themselves did not have deep knowledge, and Russian-language books of the proper level did not yet exist. As a result, Peter the Great had a meager vocabulary and wrote with errors until the end of his life.

Tsar Feodor III reigned for only six years and died due to poor health at a young age. According to tradition, the throne was supposed to be taken by another son of Tsar Alexei, Ivan, but he was very sickly, so the Naryshkin family actually organized a palace coup and declared Peter I the heir. It was beneficial for them, since the boy was a descendant of their family, but the Naryshkins did not take into account that the Miloslavsky family will rebel due to infringement of the interests of Tsarevich Ivan. The famous Streletsky revolt of 1682 took place, the result of which was the recognition of two tsars at the same time - Ivan and Peter. The Kremlin Armory still preserves a double throne for the brother tsars.

Young Peter I's favorite game was practicing with his troops. Moreover, the prince’s soldiers were not toys at all. His peers dressed in uniform and marched through the streets of the city, and Peter the Great himself “served” as a drummer in his regiment. Later, he even got his own artillery, also real. The amusing army of Peter I was called the Preobrazhensky regiment, to which the Semenovsky regiment was later added, and, in addition to them, the tsar organized an amusing fleet.

Tsar Peter I

When the young tsar was still a minor, behind him stood his older sister, Princess Sophia, and later his mother Natalya Kirillovna and her relatives the Naryshkins. In 1689, brother-co-ruler Ivan V finally gave Peter all power, although he nominally remained co-tsar until he died suddenly at the age of 30. After the death of his mother, Tsar Peter the Great freed himself from the burdensome guardianship of the Naryshkin princes, and it was from then on that we can talk about Peter the Great as an independent ruler.

He continued military operations in Crimea against Ottoman Empire, conducted a series of Azov campaigns, which resulted in the capture of the Azov fortress. To strengthen the southern borders, the tsar built the port of Taganrog, but Russia still did not have a full-fledged fleet, so it did not achieve final victory. Large-scale construction of ships and training of young nobles abroad in shipbuilding begins. And the tsar himself studied the art of building a fleet, even working as a carpenter on the construction of the ship “Peter and Paul”.

While Peter the Great was preparing to reform the country and personally studied the technical and economic progress of the leading European countries, a conspiracy was hatched against him, with the king’s first wife at its head. Having suppressed the Streltsy revolt, Peter the Great decided to redirect military operations. He concludes a peace agreement with the Ottoman Empire and begins a war with Sweden. His troops captured the fortresses of Noteburg and Nyenschanz at the mouth of the Neva, where the Tsar decided to found the city of St. Petersburg, and placed the base of the Russian fleet on the nearby island of Kronstadt.

Wars of Peter the Great

The above conquests made it possible to open access to the Baltic Sea, which later received the symbolic name “Window to Europe.” Later, the territories of the Eastern Baltic were annexed to Russia, and in 1709, during the legendary Battle of Poltava, the Swedes were completely defeated. Moreover, it is important to note: Peter the Great, unlike many kings, did not sit in fortresses, but personally led his troops on the battlefield. IN Battle of Poltava Peter I was even shot through his hat, meaning he really risked his own life.

After the defeat of the Swedes near Poltava, King Charles XII took refuge under the protection of the Turks in the city of Bendery, which was then part of the Ottoman Empire, and today is located in Moldova. With help Crimean Tatars and the Zaporozhye Cossacks, he began to escalate the situation on the southern border of Russia. In seeking the expulsion of Charles, Peter the Great, on the contrary, forced Ottoman Sultan restart the Russian-Turkish war. Rus' found itself in a situation where it was necessary to wage a war on three fronts. On the border with Moldavia, the tsar was surrounded and agreed to sign peace with the Turks, giving them back the Azov fortress and access to Sea of ​​Azov.

In addition to the Russian-Turkish and northern wars, Peter the Great escalated the situation in the east. Thanks to his expeditions, the cities of Omsk, Ust-Kamenogorsk and Semipalatinsk were founded, and later Kamchatka joined Russia. The Tsar wanted to carry out campaigns in North America and India, but failed to bring these ideas to life. But he carried out the so-called Caspian campaign against Persia, during which he conquered Baku, Rasht, Astrabad, Derbent, as well as other Iranian and Caucasian fortresses. But after the death of Peter the Great, most of these territories were lost, since the new government considered the region not promising, and maintaining a garrison in those conditions was too expensive.

Reforms of Peter I

Due to the fact that the territory of Russia expanded significantly, Peter managed to reorganize the country from a kingdom into an empire, and starting in 1721, Peter I became emperor. Of the numerous reforms of Peter I, transformations in the army clearly stood out, which allowed him to achieve great military victories. But no less important were such innovations as the transfer of the church under the authority of the emperor, as well as the development of industry and trade. Emperor Peter the Great was well aware of the need for education and the fight against an outdated way of life. On the one hand, his tax on wearing a beard was perceived as tyranny, but at the same time, there appeared a direct dependence of the promotion of nobles on the level of their education.

Under Peter, the first Russian newspaper was founded and many translations of foreign books appeared. Artillery, engineering, medical, naval and mining schools were opened, as well as the country's first gymnasium. And now secondary schools Not only the children of nobles, but also the offspring of soldiers could visit. He really wanted to create a mandatory primary school, but did not have time to implement this plan. It is important to note that the reforms of Peter the Great affected not only economics and politics. He financed the education of talented artists, introduced the new Julian calendar, and tried to change the position of women by prohibiting forced marriage. He also raised the dignity of his subjects, obliging them not to kneel even before the king and to use full names, and not call yourself “Senka” or “Ivashka” as before.

In general, the reforms of Peter the Great changed the value system of the nobles, which can be considered a huge plus, but at the same time the gap between the nobility and the people increased many times and was no longer limited only to finances and titles. The main disadvantage of the royal reforms is the violent method of their implementation. In fact, this was a struggle between despotism and uneducated people, and Peter hoped to use the whip to instill consciousness in the people. Indicative in this regard is the construction of St. Petersburg, which was carried out in difficult conditions. Many artisans ran away from hard labor, and the tsar ordered their entire family to be imprisoned until the fugitives returned to confess.

Since not everyone liked the methods of governing the state under Peter the Great, the tsar founded the political investigation and court body Preobrazhensky Prikaz, which later grew into the notorious Secret Chancery. The most unpopular decrees in this context were the ban on keeping records in a room closed from outsiders, as well as the ban on non-reporting. Violation of both of these decrees was punishable by death. In this way, Peter the Great fought against conspiracies and palace coups.

Personal life of Peter I

In his youth, Tsar Peter I loved to visit the German Settlement, where he not only became interested in foreign life, for example, learned to dance, smoke and communicate in a Western manner, but also fell in love with a German girl, Anna Mons. His mother was very alarmed by such a relationship, so when Peter reached his 17th birthday, she insisted on his wedding to Evdokia Lopukhina. However, they did not have a normal family life: soon after the wedding, Peter the Great left his wife and visited her only to prevent rumors of a certain kind.

Tsar Peter I and his wife had three sons: Alexei, Alexander and Pavel, but the latter two died in infancy. The eldest son of Peter the Great was supposed to become his heir, but since Evdokia in 1698 unsuccessfully tried to overthrow her husband from the throne in order to transfer the crown to her son and was imprisoned in a monastery, Alexei was forced to flee abroad. He never approved of his father's reforms, considered him a tyrant and planned to overthrow his parent. However, in 1717 the young man was arrested and taken into custody in Peter and Paul Fortress, and next summer they handed down a death sentence. The matter did not come to execution, since Alexei soon died in prison under unclear circumstances.

A few years after the divorce from his first wife, Peter the Great took 19-year-old Marta Skavronskaya as his mistress, whom Russian troops captured as booty of war. She gave birth to eleven children from the king, half of them even before the legal wedding. The wedding took place in February 1712 after the woman converted to Orthodoxy, thanks to which she became Ekaterina Alekseevna, later known as Empress Catherine I. Among the children of Peter and Catherine are the future Empress Elizabeth I and Anna, the mother, the rest died in childhood. It is interesting that the second wife of Peter the Great was the only person in his life who knew how to calm his violent character even in moments of rage and fits of anger.

Despite the fact that his wife accompanied the emperor on all campaigns, he was able to become infatuated with young Maria Cantemir, the daughter of the former Moldavian ruler, Prince Dmitry Konstantinovich. Maria remained Peter the Great's favorite until the end of his life. Separately, it is worth mentioning the height of Peter I. Even for our contemporaries, a more than two-meter man seems very tall. But during the time of Peter I, his 203 centimeters seemed completely incredible. Judging by the chronicles of eyewitnesses, when the Tsar and Emperor Peter the Great walked through the crowd, his head rose above the sea of ​​people.

Compared to his older brothers, born by a different mother from their common father, Peter the Great seemed quite healthy. But in fact, he was tormented by severe headaches almost all his life, and in last years During the reign of Peter the Great, he suffered from kidney stones. The attacks intensified even more after the emperor, together with ordinary soldiers, pulled out the stranded boat, but he tried not to pay attention to the illness.

At the end of January 1725, the ruler could no longer endure the pain and fell ill in his Winter Palace. After the emperor had no strength left to scream, he only moaned, and everyone around him realized that Peter the Great was dying. Peter the Great accepted his death in terrible agony. Doctors named pneumonia as the official cause of his death, but later doctors had strong doubts about this verdict. An autopsy was performed, which showed a terrible inflammation of the bladder, which had already developed into gangrene. Peter the Great was buried in the cathedral at the Peter and Paul Fortress in St. Petersburg, and his wife, Empress Catherine I, became the heir to the throne.
