Question

For this discussion forum, begin by reading the following statement and decide whether you agree or disagree with the statement:

Answer 1

I agree with the statement that in a lot of ways, 18th century Russia was just like 17th century Russia.

Why do i agree with the statement above?

This is because the 17th century started with a lot of political chaos such as struggles for power, peasant rebellions, foreign invasions and others while the 18 century saw that  Russia made no improvement as they were said to be politically, economically and socially backwards.

A piece of information that I would like to add is that  at the time when Peter the Great inherited it was known to be not absolutist, not centralized, not respected at all by Europe and they had no colonies.
