Russia originated from the East Slavs in the steppes of Eastern Europe, in 882, they established Kievan Rus' and the history of Russia officially began, in different eras, Russia has emerged outstanding and great people, they promote the history of Russia, and pass through the ages.
In 2008, Russian state television held a "Greatest Russian" selection campaign, which was selected by popular vote, and in the hearts of the Russian people, Lenin only ranked sixth, which seemed to be a little low, if Lenin knew that this event only selected 6 people, and he was the first from the bottom, I don't know how he would feel.
In fifth place is Peter the Great, the fourth Alexander Sergeyevich Pushkin, the founder of modern Russian literature, the representative of Russian Romanticism in the 19th century, known as the "father of Russian literature", "If Life Deceives You" is from him.
Third: Stalin
No one expected that Stalin would be able to climb into the top three, after all, Stalin was only Lenin's assistant before, he assisted Lenin in launching the October Revolution, but stalin can be in the top three is normal.
After Lenin's death, Stalin became the first chair in the Soviet Union, he abandoned Lenin's economic policy, went all out to carry out socialist industrialization and agricultural collectivization, and quickly turned the Soviet Union into a heavy industry and military power, and when the Second World War broke out, it was also commanded by Stalin himself.
Second: Stolypin
Peter Arkadievich Stolypin is Russia's richest legendary statesman, and in the history of Russia, I am afraid that few people have been repeatedly praised and devalued as Stolypin. In the 1990s, there were hundreds of books titled Stolypin.
He was known as the "protector of the peasants" for promoting land reform during his lifetime, and as the first person to reform, he changed the course of the history of the 170 million people's state, and he was the only one who could save the Duma monarchy, and he was also a pragmatist.
Even if there is a positive meaning, naturally there is a derogatory meaning, the historians call him the executioner, the iron-blooded prime minister, and the Duma he led was the rebellious gangster Duma... It was because Stolypin was both a controversial man that he was able to take the second seat.
First: Alexander Nevsky
Alexander Nevsky is considered by the Russians to be the "greatest Russian", what did he do? Can win the unanimous approval of the Russians.
Alexander Nevsky was the king of the Russians in the thirteenth century, he was also the richest legendary king in Russia, in the 13th century Russia was troubled by internal and external troubles, full of enemies, at the age of 20 he fought everywhere, in July 1240 Sweden sent 100 warships from the Gulf of Finland to invade the Neva River.
Too late to get his father to mobilize his troops, he could only lead his own army, and this battle of great disparity was won by a surprise raid, Alexander sank 3 Swedish warships and killed 200 people, and they only lost 20 people. He became famous in one battle and was revered as the "Hero of the Neva River".
He was able to resist the Mongol Iron Horse in the First World War, he adopted a policy of gentleness, preserved the unity of Russia, and during World War II, Stalin set up the Order of Alexander Nevsky, and he was once again remembered.
