Peter I, or Peter the Great (1672-1725), was one of the most outstanding rulers
and reformers in Russian history. He spent his childhood and early 1in the
village of Preobrazhenskoe, where he lived with his mother, loved military games
and enjoyed carpentry, blacksmithing and printing, learned to sail on sailboats, and
only rarely 2 to Moscow for official ceremonies. In 1689, at the age of
seventeen, Peter successfully 3Sofia from power, and at the urging of his
mother 4Eudoxia Lopykhina. The marriage was not a happy one: neither
Eudoxia or their son Alexey shared Peter's interests. Many years later, Alexey was
arrested, charged with treason, and died in the Peter and Paul Fortress under
5circumstances, while Eudoxia was divorced by Peter in 1712 and then
forced to enter a convent. In the same year, Peter married Marta Skavronskaya, the
future Empress Catherine I.
Peter was the first Russian monarch to receive an education both in Russia
and abroad. Even as a boy, he received his education not only from 6tutors,
but also in German Town, a district of Moscow where many enlightened foreigners
lived. There young Peter became 7in the latest developments in science and
technology as well as natural science. Setting off to Europe in 1696 Peter travelled
incognito under the pseudonym of Pyotr Mikhailov. In Prussia, the Tsar studied
artillery and received a 8as a firearms master, and in Holland he learned the
craft of shipbuilding by working at the bustling Dutch docks. Then he set off to
England to study the 9advances in shipbuilding and industry. But this educational and entertaining voyage was cut short after 18 months by news of a
Streltsy revolt in Moscow.
Peter the Great created a system of civil service in Russia by 10the Table
of Ranks: a document defining the classification of all military, naval, court and
civilian officials into fourteen classes, from fourteen as the lowest up to the first.
The Table of Ranks was designed to create a "social elevator" for
hardworking military and government officials and to reduce the abuse of
appointments and promotions in service.
