Peter I, or Peter the Great, was one of the most prominent rulers and reformers in the history of Russia. He was a Russian tsar and became emperor in 1721. First, he ruled along with his brother Ivan and his sister Sophia. In 1696, he became the sole ruler.
He was a healthy, lively and intelligent child. He loved war games and loved carpentry, blacksmithing and printing. At the age of 17, he was married.
Peter I is known for drawing Russia further east. He also moved the capital from Moscow to St. Petersburg. Peter traveled extensively in Western Europe and tried to bring Western customs and habits to Russia. He introduced Western technology. He completely changed the Russian government and military system: he increased the power of the monarch and reduced the power of the boyars and the church.
In foreign policy, Peter I waged a war with Turkey (1695-1696) and the Great Northern War with Sweden (1700-1721), as well as the war with Persia (1722-1723). In these wars, he wanted to gain access to the Baltic, Black and Caspian Seas. He managed to get the shores of the Baltic Sea and the Caspian Sea.
Peter I played a large role in Russian history. After his death, Russia became much safer and more progressive than before his reign.
