Answer: He introduced the tumbleweed to Russia from Spain

Explanation:

Peter the Great embarked on a Grand Embassy between the years 1697 and 1698 in a bid to strengthen the Holy League as well as to acquire weapons and expert soldiers for his army.

He went to a number of countries including the Dutch Republic, Prussia and England. In both the Dutch Republic and England, he learnt shipbuilding as they were the foremost naval powers of the time.

Upon his return to Russia, he implemented western style in forcing his nobles to shave their beards. Eventually he started a beard tax where nobles and common people would have to pay money to keep a beard.

He did not introduced tumbleweed to Russia from Spain. Tumbleweed which is also known as Russian Thistle, is indigenous to Russia.

Andrew Jackson once said, "One man with courage makes a majority."

zhuklara [117]

What Jackson meant by this quote is if one man stands up for what he believes in, many will follow because it is not that they do not believe in what they are following it is only because they are just too afraid to be the one to stand up.This also means that one man standing up for something he truly believes in is greater than many people standing up for something they don't. This idea influenced his leadership greatly because Andrew Jackson had qualities most Americans admired. He was a patriot, a self-made man, and a war hero and this quote adds to that by showing Americans what he truly believed in and in turn making people want to follow him.
