Abstract

In medieval Russia, specifically Moscow in the early sixteenth century, times were beginning to change. This period of Russian history saw the end of Appanage Rus and the beginning of the Muscovite state. This alteration in political organization was centred upon the rule of one of history's most notorious names, ivan Groznyi, in English, ivan the Terrible. He was the first ever Tsar of Russia, his reign began as a rather unremarkable one, in the first half of his years in power were viewed by historians as successful ones, where he instituted reforms in the church codes, and military service by the gentry. However, this period shifted rapidly, beginning with the sudden death of ivan the Terrible's wife, Anastasia. ivan believed his wife had been poisoned, and carried out a campaign of vengeance against those he believed to be responsible, beginning with the supposed perpetrators themselves, and soon thereafter carrying on to their immediate family, friends and associates
