Summary

What would Russia look like today if there had never been a Peter the Great? Peter I did so much for Russia, including changing the education system to reach more people, reorganizing the government and the Russian Orthodox Church, and even modernizing the dress and social living standards of the Russian people.

From this audiobook, you will learn about:

  • Peter I, the Ten-Year-Old Tsar
  • Reforming Russia
  • The Great Northern War
  • The Persian Invasion
  • Peter the Great’s Death
  • And much more!

Peter grew up in a Russia that was stuck in archaic times, but he recognized the need for change, and when his time came to rule over his country he met the challenge head-on. Peter the Great turned Russia into one of the greatest powers of the world.
