BACKGROUND
Founded in the 12th century, the Principality of Muscovy, was able to emerge from over 200 years of
Mongol domination (13th-15th centuries) and to gradually conquer and absorb surrounding
principalities. In the early 17th century, a new ROMANOV Dynasty continued this policy of
expansion across Siberia to the Pacific. Under PETER I (ruled 1682-1725), hegemony was extended
to the Baltic Sea and the country was renamed the Russian Empire. During the 19th century, more
territorial acquisitions were made in Europe and Asia. Defeat in the Russo-Japanese War of 1904-05
contributed to the Revolution of 1905, which resulted in the formation of a parliament and other
reforms. Repeated devastating defeats of the Russian army in World War I led to widespread rioting in
the major cities of the Russian Empire and to the overthrow in 1917 of the imperial household. The
communists under Vladimir LENIN seized power soon after and formed the USSR. The brutal rule
of Josef STALIN (1928-53) strengthened communist rule and Russian dominance of the Soviet
Union at a cost of tens of millions of lives. The Soviet economy and society stagnated in the
following decades until General Secretary Mikhail GORBACHEV (1985-91) introduced glasnost
(openness) and perestroika (restructuring) in an attempt to modernize communism, but his initiatives
inadvertently released forces that by December 1991 splintered the USSR into Russia and 14 other
independent republics. Since then, Russia has shifted its post-Soviet democratic ambitions in favor of
a centralized semi-authoritarian state in which the leadership seeks to legitimize its rule through
managed national elections, populist appeals by President PUTIN, and continued economic growth. R
