  • Thank you!

  • thanks for helping me on my russian history midterm :D

  • ur a history nerd

  • Why to read the Wikipedia page!! :D

  • And I am interested: what EXACTELY about EVEL,S part of catherine you ,ve mean???

  • I can repeat and understand the only thing: as much more person GREAT in her (his) actions, reformes etc.. as much others judge her- she is EVEl, but why be not to say that also that in her "time" Russian built 150 more cities? population grows two times MORE? borders became to be STRON.. etc.. etc. etc?

  • 2d of May TODAY! Greating for Birthday of GREAT Ecatherina (Ecatherine II)

  • Before you write comments, think about why Catherine the Great all referred to the descendants.

    Regarding your thoughts I'll say it again her thoughts: A person with a good heart is trying to draw all things and the good thing, a man with a bad heart, trying to find a good evil. (Not about you it said?)

  • One fact that Catherine first decided to try on his body shot tons of smallpox (the Empress - and did it first!) - This fact speaks for itself. After a successful experiment in Russia has begun widespread vaccination against this terrible disease.

  • Only RUSSIAN can speak the truth about Russian. And the truth is that even today, the rulers of all countries commit evil. And Before we discuss and judge the rulers (particularly from other countries and states) display all are in good condition in your family .. with your loved ones and relatives.

  • 2. Carry into the heart of what the other could not carry, there is a solid experience of the soul, but inflict a good thing he could not inflict another, there is a commendable thing.

    3. States that do not respect is the sovereign, the rulers, which have no respect for elders, nor to the fathers and mothers, are close to collapse.

    And then you say that evil can say that? ))) Ha ha ..

  • "She was one of the most evil women in history" - I am Russian.. And Seems that don,t know EVEN DROP about Her Character..

    Poor knowledges in history , specially about Russia.

    I will not describe all humanism in Catherine 2, just few facts.

    I will cite an example of some of her quotes:

    1. A man with a good heart is trying to draw all things and the good thing, a man with a bad heart, trying to find a good evil.

  • She was one of the most evil women in history, who gave misery to the poor farmers who were serfs and already treated as slaves. I guess her psychotic, as well as Mad Albright's, for instance, is a result of excessive "feminism", which is resulted in a desire to show that women can be as evil s some men at least, if not more.

  • @Freeseselj If you don,t know about Catherine Great NOTHING don,t judge! If you talk about her- that,s mean that she is great.. WE< Russin had MORE "EVEL" as you said about such things Emperess.. Like Ivan, like Peter..But When they were leader of Russia Russia growing up! It,s easy to judge and to put you nose where you don,t know and don,t understand NOTHING.

  • @nikapnz As far as I understand, putting noses in other countries means criticizing them unjustly and for the wrong reasons. I don't say bad things about Russia today, and indeed, it would be difficult to find bad things about Russia today. But the fact remains that "Catherine the Great" was a very evil woman, and didn't bring honor to Russia (and wasn't Russian anyway).

  • @Freeseselj I am convinced once again: the more real and great reforms makes a historical figure, the more "evil" people see in this person.

    Yes, during the reign of Catherine people died - 6 warrior that she was forced to lead with the states bordering on Russia. But how else could Ekaterina strengthen border state? Prompt.

  • @Freeseselj

    And I think you will agree with the simple fact: the moment that her actions have turned Russia into the greatest power the world at that time paid off so far.

    And of course, the actions of Catherine does not compare with the actions of Hitler or Stalin, for example.

    And if now people such as Peter the Great and Catherine the Great (incidentally, it was the sole ruler of the award of such title), Russia would be more powerful, and cultural power.

  • @Freeseselj

    I could cite many more facts. But I think that this will be enough prviesti one phrase that is talked about it the Russian people (and speak Russian so far) It was the most Russian of all Russian people of that time. She was the most orthodox of all the Orthodox of the time.

  • @Freeseselj

    The rest .. Evil is in every man. and the extent to which he is known world. So you and I are absolutely equal in this matter to her. But hardly can we judge and evaluate the harm against our more modest Affairs))

    And by the way- if you have someone who understand RUssian.. please, wahct these interviews with the most know and respectfull people of Russian culture (this programmes said you more then me and more then you as own :)) ) about Catherine the Great.

  • Thanks this helped me a lot for my AP class
