The first superpower. Alexander the Blessed and Nikolai the Unforgettable

by Boris Akunin

Overview

"The First Superpower" - the seventh volume of the "History of the Russian State" - tells the reader what are the reasons for the rapid rise and subsequent weakening of the Russian Empire, at what cost the state achieved a leading position in the world, and to what results the experience of "superpower" led. This volume is dedicated to the events of the first half of the 19th century, the era of the reign of the sons of Emperor Paul: Alexander, the idol of Russian liberals, and Nicholas, the idol of Russian guardians. These two political regimes, very different in ideology and style, gave Russia a new rhythm of breathing, which continues to this day. What lessons can be learned from studying the Alexander-Nikolaev era?
