The reign of Emperor Alexander I
On the night of March 11-12,
Emperor Alexander I was brought up under the supervision of his grandmother, Catherine II. He was familiar with the ideas of the enlighteners - Voltaire, Montesquieu, Rousseau. However, Alexander Pavlovich never separated the idea of equality and freedom from autocracy. This half-heartedness became a feature of both the transformations and the reign of Emperor Alexander I. His very first manifestos testified to the adoption of a new political course. It proclaimed the desire to rule according to the laws of Catherine II, remove restrictions on trade with England, contained the announcement of amnesty and the reinstatement of persons repressed under Paul I.
All work related to the liberalization of life was concentrated in the so-called. The secret committee, which brought together friends and associates of the young emperor - P.A. Stroganov, V.P. Kochubei, A. Chartorysky and N.N. Novosiltsev - adherents of constitutionalism. The committee existed until 1805. It was mainly engaged in preparing a program for the emancipation of the peasants from serfdom and reforming the state system. The result of this activity was the law of December 12, 1801, which allowed state peasants, bourgeois and merchants to acquire unpopulated land, and the decree of February 20, 1803 "On free farmers", which gave the landowners the right, at their desire, to release the peasants at will land for ransom.

In the reign of Alexander I, the Kingdom of Poland, annexed to Russia, was granted a constitution. The constitutional act was also presented to the Bessarabian region. Finland, which also became part of Russia, received its legislative body - the Seim - and a constitutional structure. Thus, constitutional rule already existed in part of the territory of the Russian Empire, which inspired hopes for its spread throughout the country. In 1818, the development of the "Charter of the Russian Empire" even began, but this document never saw the light of day.
In 1822 the emperor lost interest in state affairs, work on reforms was curtailed, and among the advisers of Alexander I stood out the figure of a new temporary worker - A.A. Arakcheev, who became the first person in the state after the emperor and ruled as an all-powerful favorite. The consequences of the reform activities of Alexander I and his advisers were insignificant. The unexpected death of the emperor in 1825 at the age of 48 was the reason for an open speech on the part of the most advanced part of Russian society, the so-called Decembrists, against the foundations of autocracy.

The Russian army consisted of 220 thousand people, and it was divided into three parts. The first army - under the command of General M.B. Barclay de Tolly - was in Lithuania, the second - General Prince P.I.Bagration - in Belarus, and the third army - General A.P. Tormasov - in Ukraine. Napoleon's plan was extremely simple and consisted in routing the Russian armies piece by piece with powerful blows.
The Russian armies retreated to the east in parallel directions, retaining their strength and exhausting the enemy in rearguard battles. On August 2 (14), the armies of Barclay de Tolly and Bagration joined up in the Smolensk region. Here, in a difficult two-day battle, the French troops lost 20 thousand soldiers and officers, the Russians - up to 6 thousand people.

On December 25, 1812, in St. Petersburg, Emperor Alexander I promulgated a manifesto, which said that the Patriotic War of the Russian people against the French invaders ended in complete victory and the expulsion of the enemy.
The Russian army took part in the overseas campaigns of 1813-1814, during which, together with the Prussian, Swedish, British and Austrian armies, finished off the enemy in Germany and France. The campaign of 1813 ended with the defeat of Napoleon at the Battle of Leipzig. After the capture of Paris by the allied forces in the spring of 1814, Napoleon I abdicated the throne.

In 1818, on the basis of this self-liquidating society, a new one was created - the Union of Welfare. It was already a more numerous secret organization, numbering more than 200 people. It was organized by F.N. Glinka, F.P. Tolstoy, M.I.Muraviev-Apostol. The organization was ramified: its cells were created in Moscow, St. Petersburg, Nizhny Novgorod, Tambov, in the south of the country. The goals of the society remained the same - the introduction of representative government, the elimination of autocracy and serfdom. Members of the Union saw the way to achieve their goal in the propagation of their views and proposals sent to the government. However, they never heard a response.

After the death of Alexander I, his brother Konstantin Pavlovich was to become the Russian emperor, but even during the life of Alexander I, he abdicated in favor of his younger brother Nicholas. This was not officially announced, so initially both the state apparatus and the army swore allegiance to Constantine. But soon Constantine's renunciation of the throne was made public and a re-oath was appointed. therefore
members of the "Northern Society" decided to speak out on December 14, 1825 with the requirements laid down in their program, for which they intended to hold a demonstration of military force at the Senate building. An important task was to prevent the senators from taking the oath to Nikolai Pavlovich. Prince S.P. Trubetskoy was proclaimed the leader of the uprising.
On December 14, 1825, the first Moscow regiment came to Senate Square, led by members of the Northern Society, brothers Bestuzhev and Shchepin-Rostovsky. However, the regiment stood alone for a long time, the conspirators were inactive. The murder of the Governor-General of St. Petersburg M.A. Miloradovich, who had left for the rebels, became fatal - the uprising could no longer end peacefully. By mid-afternoon, a guards naval crew and a company of the Life Grenadier Regiment nevertheless joined the rebels.

Control over public life led to changes in the field of education. In 1828, a reform of lower and secondary educational institutions was carried out. Education was of a class character, i.e. school steps were separated from each other: primary and parish - for peasants, county - for urban inhabitants, gymnasium - for nobles. In 1835, a new university charter was issued, which reduced the autonomy of higher educational institutions.
The wave of European bourgeois revolutions in Europe in 1848-1849, which horrified Nicholas I, led to the so-called. The "gloomy seven years", when censorship control was tightened to the limit, the secret police raged. A shadow of despair loomed before the most progressive-minded people. This last stage of the reign of Nicholas I was, in fact, already the agony of the system that he created.

The direct reason for the war was the old conflict between the Catholic and Orthodox churches over the right to control the holy places for Christians in Palestine. Backed by France, Turkey has refused to satisfy Russia's claims to the Orthodox Church's priority in this matter. In June 1853 Russia broke off diplomatic relations with Turkey and occupied the Danube principalities. In response, the Turkish Sultan declared war on Russia on October 4, 1853.
Turkey relied on the ongoing war in the North Caucasus and provided all kinds of assistance to the mountaineers who rebelled against Russia, including carrying out landings of its fleet on the Caucasian coast. In response to this, on November 18, 1853, the Russian flotilla under the command of Admiral P.S. Nakhimov completely defeated the Turkish fleet on the roadstead of Sinop Bay. This naval battle was the pretext for France and England to enter the war. In December 1853, a combined British and French squadron entered the Black Sea, and in March 1854 a declaration of war followed.
