EMPIRE. Peter I & Catherine II. ALL EPISODES. Documentary Film:    • EMPIRE. Peter I & Catherine II. ALL EPISOD...   All episodes:    • The Romanovs. The History of the Russian D...   Peter I the Great, as a man of action with explosive temperament, disliked the ritualism connected with the rule of state. Neither in his clothes, nor in his behavior did he try to be a monarch. To reform Russia, he chose quite a difficult way. The army, the education, everyday life – all traditional foundations were reorganized according to European patterns. Peter always felt to be alone against the whole world. Secretly hating the reformer, all people from his surrounding accepted the changes in habitual ways of life. He had no support in his closest circles: his best friend and co-worker Alexander Menshikov was embezzling the state treasury and his wife Catherine was cheating on him. In his last years, Peter was seriously ill. After his death, the Russian throne passed to Catherine Alekseyevna. The most vivid pages of Russian history and the establishment and consolidation of Russian state power are associated with the eighteen Russian Tsars of the House of Romanov which include such historic names as Peter the Great, Catherine the Great, Nicholas I and Alexanders I, II and III. The dynasty ended with the brutal assassination of the last Tsar, Nicholas II and his family by the Bolsheviks in Ekaterinburg in 1917. The Romanov dynasty played a hugely important role in world history, and the series highlights the life stories and characters of the tsars, recounting their rise to power and their contribution to the dynasty, their merits and their faults, their achievements and mistakes, their victories and defeats in war. The series also examines the Russian form of 'Caesarism' as a system of state administration - its advantages and drawbacks and how the Russian state changed under the Romanov's rule. THE ROMANOVS is told in eight epic one-hour episodes using a unique combination of magnificent CGI animation and dramatic reconstruction with careful and accurate attention paid to each period.
