Your Favorite Russian Leader?

Postby The Weeks Clan » Thu May 02, 2013 1:01 pm

So who is your favorite Russian leader? Is he or she a leader of Imperial Russia? Soviet Russia? Or the new Russian Republic?

I am by no means an expert on Russia but I do have an interest in the nation. And If pressed I woul say Catherine the I of Russia is my favorite. She was the first woman to rule Imperial Russia and is known for continuing Peter's policies of modernizing the Russian Empire. She cut the military budget in a time of peace and thus took a heavy tax burden off the peasentry and is generally remembered as a fair and just ruler.

So, who is your favorite Russian Leader NSG?

They were all pretty terrible.
Anti-Liberal: Liberalism is an ideology based on blind idealism with no regard for rationality.
Anti-Conservative: Conservatism is an ideology based on bigotry and traditionalism with no regard for compassion or rationality.
Anti-Moderate: Moderatism is an ideology that just seeks to compromise without any real regard for the outcome.
Anti-Libertarian: Libertarianism is based on greed and blind idealism and has no regard for rationality or compassion.

Both liberalism and conservatism are clown ideologies. However I take liberalism even less seriously than conservatism.

None of them. Shitty tsars, followed by shitty USSR dictators, followed by shitty drunkard (Yeltsin) followed by shitty pseudo-dictator (Putinvedev)
I support peace in Israel and Palestine. The governments and people in power on all sides are an absolute disgrace, and their unwillingness to pursue peace is a disservice to the people they are meant to be serving. The status quo is not simply untenable; it is unquestionably unacceptable.

Peter I.

Just because he was the least suckiest of all my nations leaders.

*sigh* Why can't Russia ever have any good leaders? Why does the West hog them all? Bastard Westerners, keeping all the good leaders for themselves! >:(
