He was loved by the people: for all his long reign, neither the simple people nor the servile nobility have never rebelled against his power - but until now Ivan the Terrible is reproached as a "despot" and a “bloody tyrant”. On his conscience, ten times fewer lives than that of modern European monarchs - but they continue to represent him with a "outburst" and a “demoniac sadist”. Under Tsar Ivan Vasilyevich, the territory of the country doubled, millions of acres of fertile land were conquered from the wild field, more than 70 cities were built, and predatory slave states of the eastern neighbors were crushed - but its blessed reign was shed and a donation as one of the black periods" of our history. This Russophobic myth has been poisoning the minds for more than a century - after centuries, the enemies of Russia have been using attacks on the personality and rule of Ivan the Terrible to denigrate all our past and the very Russian statehood. This book restores the truth, paying tribute to the greatest genius of power, the first Russian autocrat, comparison with the comparison of which neither Tudors, nor Habsburgs, nor Valois can withstand. This is a fresh look at the grandiose figure of Ivan IV, a radical reassessment of his role in history, the solidification of his great life and tragic death
