Today we are going to zoom in on that period just after the dust had settled — roughly 1792 onwards — and have a look at what Russia looked like from a geopolitical standpoint
We'll also be talking about a man, sadly for the last time, who had become one of the titans of Russian History. Grigory Potemkin. (in a way I'm glad because for some strange reason my pronunciation of his name was inconsistent to say the least)
And then we'll be spending some time with a general who, if you remember from the last episode, had won every major battle that he had been involved in - Alexander Suvorov. Which for the Polish/Lithuanian commonwealth would spell even more disaster.
And finally, we’ll take a quick peek at what was going on in France where the Ancien Regime was being turned upside down and what Catherine’s thought about it all.
