Peter the Great Absolutism in Russia

Peter the Great Becomes the sole ruler in 1696 What in this picture tells us Peter is royalty?

Why had Russia long been isolated from Western Europe? Feudal Russia Boyars = landowning nobles Serfdom lasts until the 1800s Why had Russia long been isolated from Western Europe?

The Grand Embassy A long visit to learn about European customs and manufacturing techniques Peter travels to Western Europe Learns about art, architecture, and technology Travels as an ordinary man rather than as the czar What symbols in this painting show Peter’s power?

Peter increases his power Takes control of the Russian Orthodox Church Promoted men from lower-ranking positions who were loyal only to him Modernized the army Imposed heavy taxes

Peter makes reforms Westernization: Uses the West as a model for change to strengthen Russia and compete with Europe Increases the status of women by allowing them to attend social gatherings Forces the nobles to dress in Western clothing Makes all men shave their beards or pay a tax Changed to the Julian calendar

“Window to the West” Russia fights Sweden to gain access to the Baltic Sea Provides access to trade and Europe Peter drains swampy land to build St. Petersburg, his new capital Many die from disease and bad working conditions Orders nobles to move to the new city Peter believed Russia’s future depended on a warm water port so they could compete with Western Europe

Winter Palace What kind of power did Peter have to have to make these reforms? To build this kind of palace?

A Counter Case: England

The Magna Carta Guaranteed certain political rights to nobles as protection against the king Early moves toward democracy Make a connection to something this reminds you of!
