The czar emigrated to the Far East.

Because Russia's 12 emperor did not blindly expand his territory like the two emperors, it is said that compared with those two emperors, there are still shortcomings in this respect.

12 The second emperor of Russia was Alexander II, the eldest son of Nicholas I. Compared with other czars before him, this crown prince was not only the heir to the throne, but also highly valued by his father and received the best education. After Alexander entered politics, he gradually formed his own serfdom reform, which inevitably touched the interests of landlords and nobles. Faced with fierce opposition and heavy resistance, Alexander II decided to carry out the reform to the end. After a period of chaos, Russia's political situation gradually returned to stability. Alexander II's reform of abolishing serfdom had a great influence and was called "the greatest social movement" after the French Revolution.

One of Russia's "Great Emperors" was the first Tsar Peter I, and his great achievements in expanding the territory have made Russians sing praises to this day. During the reign of Peter I, he defeated Sweden through the Great Northern War and won the coveted Baltic Sea estuary in one fell swoop, laying a solid foundation for Russia's westward expansion as a "European country".

Another "great" Catherine II is even more reluctant. During her 34-year rule, the Russian Empire continued to expand westward and southward. During this period, Russia joined Prussia and Austria to carve up Poland three times. Its expansion is remarkable.

For hundreds of years, tsarist Russia was inseparable from the ruling foundation of serfdom. Tsars of past dynasties, including Peter I and Catherine II, dared not touch slavery. However, Alexander II did it.
