How Did Peter The Great Impact The Russian Revolution

Peter the Great was considered on of the greatest czar of all Russian history. He did attempt to build a bigger army to overpower other European countries, but that costed a great deal of money and a raise in taxes. In 1700, he went to war with Sweden, raging on for 21 years. As Russia took on the victory of the battle, they gained power over the Baltic Sea and transformed the Russian Tsardom into the Russian Empire. Soon, Russia became the world’s top producer in cast-iron melting. This production, bolstered Russian industry and the military. The Tsar designed new guns, made both army and navy professional, standing units, and governments along with military promotions become based on merit instead of bloodline. Still, he wanted more than
just to have Western European firepower. And that’s how his western attire began including the law to have one’s beard shaved.
So to my conclusion, Peter wasn’t the best, nor the worst. He achieve great accomplishments and also failed to keep a couple people happy. Although, if you think about it, those people might’ve been even worse if Peter hadn’t come along to lead Russia.
