WEIRD Things You Did Not Know About Catherine the Great

Ah, 18th century Russia. The only thing more dangerous than being the emperor was not being the emperor, and the only thing uniting Russia’s political landscape was its total lack of unity.

Yet, among all this, one woman found herself ruling for decades, bringing the enlightenment to Russian court, and even teaching the rest of Europe a thing or two about progress. More progressive than Elizabeth, less murderous than Peter the Great, Catherine the Great was on a quest to bring Russia into a new era, and have a little fun doing it!

Welcome back to Nutty History. Today we’re learning about Catherine the Great. Usurper, patron of the arts, hoarder of books, terrible mother, sought after lover, and friend to philosophers everywhere. Let’s dig in!
