 DEZZY'S HISTORY LESSON
After she managed to secure the throne for herself, Elizabeth of Russia (1709-1762), ruled her father Peter the Great's empire for two decades and to this date remains one of the most popular Russian monarchs because of her decision not to execute a single person during her reign, her numerous construction projects, and her strong opposition to Prussian policies. During her reign Elizabeth continued the policies of her father and brought about a remarkable Age of Enlightenment in Russia! She encouraged the opening of University of Moscow, the highest- ranking Russian educational institution, and the Imperial Academy of Arts! As the lover of arts herself she turned her court into one of the most splendid ones in all Europe, she built many magnificent palaces including the legendary Winter Palace, but she also modernized Russia's roads. She never married, but she lived with a common serf Razumovsky who never showed interested in power and was loyal to her. The airing rights have already been sold to Serbia, Bulgaria, Mexico and Mongolia. Check out the magnificent trailer below for the twelve part new historical series coming from Russia and tell us what you think: would you watch it and have you read novels about this part of Russian history?
