How was the nobility of Russia formalized by Peter the Great and later Catherine the Great?

History

lana [24]3 years ago
5 0

The Russian nobles didn't enjoy the privileges and dignity the European nobles used to enjoy. Peter the Great introduced some reforms which formalized the nobility of Russia. He ennobled the new comers and reduced the influence of Boyars, Russia's elites. He introduced the table of ranks - a set of 14 ranks applied to civil services and military as well. Anyone who attained at least the 8th rank was ennobled.The nobles were educated, westernized and bureaucratized.  

Catherine the Great also took some measures with regard to nobility. She realized the dependence on nobility and thus She gave them more control over their lands and serfs. Further The 1785 charter to nobility established them as a separate estate and assured their privileges and dignity.

1. What condition is the Raths’ house in?
masha68 [24]

Answer:

A thousand petty shabbiness's bore witness to the negligence of the Raths. The front door had been scratched by a dog which had been run over the year before. The hot water faucet in the bathroom dripped. Almost all the furniture needed to be refinished, reupholstered, or cleaned. And besides that, the house was too small, ugly, and almost precisely like the houses on all sides of it.
