About this listen
Why is Ivan the Terrible both feared and seen as “great” by Russians? After Moscow ended Mongol rule, he built Imperial Russia’s foundations: institutionalizing autocracy, controlling nobles via the Service Nobility Decree, and subduing the Church with the Council of a Hundred Chapters. Though cruel (even killing his heir), he created a centralized state that enabled later expansion. Next: his role in Siberian conquest.
