^ From the work of the modern historian E.V. Anisimov.

“The fate of Catherine proved that the human will, desire can become no less real and powerful factor in history than dozens of multi-gun ships and thousands of soldiers. Empress Catherine created glory for herself, which became her powerful weapon, like that warship that was called “Catherine’s Glory” ...

The French diplomat Corberon wrote in his report that the fame that the empress created for herself, her decisive character, her abilities and luck replace her skillful statesmen and experienced generals.

... The Empress entered the history of Russia as an outstanding statesman, and the era of her reign became a time of grandiose reforms and the publication of the most important legislative acts ...

Before her were the real goals of strengthening the autocracy, carrying out the necessary military, administrative and estate reforms. It implemented them in a unified way, with one general idea - to maximally contribute to the development and improvement of that "regular" state, the foundations of which were laid by Peter the Great.

... Catherine's legislative acts outlived her for a long time and, together with the basic laws of Peter the Great, became the basis of Russian statehood for many decades. Actually, the ambitious queen-legislator probably dreamed of such a conclusion of the historian.

C4. What chronological period in the history of Russia is referred to in the document? Specify its scope. Under what name did this period go down in history?

“This century has gone down in world history under the name of the “Century of Russia”. Two brilliant reigns symbolized this century: it began with the reign of Peter I the Great and ended with the activity of Catherine II, also called the Great. According to A.S. Pushkin, in this century "Russia entered Europe like a ship launched from the stocks - with the sound of an ax and the thunder of cannons."

At the beginning of the century, St. Petersburg was founded, and in the middle of it, Moscow University was founded. In this century, Russia has become a European power, firmly taking its place in the alliance of other states and loudly declaring itself as a great and powerful country.

The century ended with the victorious Italian and Swiss campaigns of A.V. Suvorov, when "the Russian bayonet broke through the Alps." This century passed the baton of glory and deeds to the centuries to come.

Now let's get to work.

Roosevelt. ... Turning to a more important and more interesting issue for the Soviet Union - operations through the Channel<Ла-Манш>, I want to say that we have been drawing up our plans for the past year and a half, but due to lack of tonnage, we have not been able to determine the date of this operation ...
