4. Nikita Sergeevich Khrushchev (04/17/1894-09/11/1971)
Soviet statesman and party leader. First Secretary of the CPSU Central Committee, Chairman of the Council of Ministers of the USSR from 1958 to 1964. Hero of the Soviet Union, Three times Hero of Socialist Labor. The first laureate of the Shevchenko Prize, reign 09/07/1. (Moscow city).
Nikita Sergeevich Khrushchev was born in 1894 in the village of Kalinovka, Kursk province, into the family of miner Sergei Nikanorovich Khrushchev and Ksenia Ivanovna Khrushcheva. In 1908, having moved with his family to the Uspensky mine near Yuzovka, Khrushchev became an apprentice mechanic at a factory, then worked as a mechanic at a mine and, as a miner, was not taken to the front in 1914. In the early 1920s, he worked in the mines and studied at the workers' department of the Donetsk Industrial Institute. Later he was engaged in economic and party work in Donbass and Kyiv. Since January 1931, he was at party work in Moscow, during which time he was the first secretary of the Moscow regional and city party committees - MK and MGK VKP (b). In January 1938, he was appointed first secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Ukraine. In the same year he became a candidate, and in 1939 - a member of the Politburo.
During World War II, Khrushchev served as a political commissar of the highest rank (a member of the military councils of a number of fronts) and in 1943 received the rank of lieutenant general; led the partisan movement behind the front line. In the first post-war years he headed the government in Ukraine. In December 1947, Khrushchev again headed the Communist Party of Ukraine, becoming the first secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party (Bolsheviks) of Ukraine; He held this post until he moved to Moscow in December 1949, where he became the first secretary of the Moscow Party Committee and secretary of the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks. Khrushchev initiated the consolidation of collective farms (kolkhozes). After Stalin's death, when the Chairman of the Council of Ministers left the post of Secretary of the Central Committee, Khrushchev became the “master” of the party apparatus, although until September 1953 he did not have the title of First Secretary. Between March and June 1953 he attempted to seize power. In order to eliminate Beria, Khrushchev entered into an alliance with Malenkov. In September 1953, he took the post of First Secretary of the CPSU Central Committee. In June 1953, a struggle for power began between Malenkov and Khrushchev, in which Khrushchev won. At the beginning of 1954, he announced the start of a grandiose program for the development of virgin lands in order to increase grain production, and in October of the same year he headed the Soviet delegation to Beijing.
The most striking event in Khrushchev's career was the 20th Congress of the CPSU, held in 1956. At a closed meeting, Khrushchev condemned Stalin, accusing him of mass extermination of people and erroneous policies that almost ended with the liquidation of the USSR in the war with Nazi Germany. The result of this report was unrest in the Eastern bloc countries - Poland (October 1956) and Hungary (October and November 1956). In June 1957, the Presidium (formerly Politburo) of the CPSU Central Committee organized a conspiracy to remove Khrushchev from the post of First Secretary of the Party. After his return from Finland, he was invited to a meeting of the Presidium, which, by seven votes to four, demanded his resignation. Khrushchev convened a Plenum of the Central Committee, which overturned the decision of the Presidium and dismissed the “anti-party group” of Molotov, Malenkov and Kaganovich. He strengthened the Presidium with his supporters, and in March 1958 he took the post of Chairman of the Council of Ministers, taking into his own hands all the main levers of power. In September 1960, Khrushchev visited the United States as head of the Soviet delegation to the UN General Assembly. During the assembly, he managed to hold large-scale negotiations with the heads of government of a number of countries. His report to the Assembly called for general disarmament, the immediate elimination of colonialism and the admission of China to the UN. During the summer of 1961, Soviet foreign policy became increasingly harsh, and in September the USSR ended a three-year moratorium on nuclear weapons testing with a series of explosions. On October 14, 1964, by the Plenum of the CPSU Central Committee, Khrushchev was relieved of his duties as First Secretary of the CPSU Central Committee and member of the Presidium of the CPSU Central Committee. He was succeeded by becoming the First Secretary of the Communist Party, and becoming the Chairman of the Council of Ministers. After 1964, Khrushchev, while retaining his seat on the Central Committee, was essentially in retirement. Khrushchev died in Moscow on September 11, 1971.
The history of the Russian state goes back much more than a thousand years, and to be completely honest, even before the onset of awareness and establishment of statehood, a colossal number of the most diverse tribes lived on vast territories. The final period of ten centuries, and a little more, can be called the most interesting, full of a wide variety of personalities and rulers that were significant for the fate of the entire country. And the chronology of the rulers of Russia, from Rurik to Putin, is so long and confusing that it would not be a bad idea to understand in more detail how we managed to overcome this long journey of several centuries, who stood at the head of the people at every hour of their lives and why they be remembered by descendants, leaving their shame and glory, disappointment and pride for centuries. Be that as it may, they all left their mark, were worthy daughters and sons of their time, providing their descendants with a great future.
Main stages: rulers of Russia in chronological order, table
Not every Russian, no matter how sad it may be, is well versed in history, and he can hardly list the rulers of Russia in chronological order for at least the last hundred years. And for a historian, this is far from such a simple task, especially if you also need to briefly talk about the contribution of each of them to the history of their native country. That is why historians decided to conditionally divide all this into main historical stages, connecting them according to some specific characteristic, for example, by social system, foreign and domestic policy, and so on.
Russian rulers: chronology of stages of development
It is worth saying that the chronology of the rulers of Russia can tell a lot even to a person who has no special abilities or knowledge in historical terms. The historical, as well as personal, characteristics of each of them largely depended on the conditions of the very era when they happened to lead the country at that particular period of time.
Among other things, over the entire historical period, not only the rulers of Rus' from Rurik to Putin (the table below will definitely be of interest to you) were replaced by one another, but also the historical and political center of the country itself changed the place of its own deployment, and often this did not depend at all from the people, who, however, did not suffer much from this. For example, until the forty-seventh year of the sixteenth century, the country was ruled by princes, and only after that came monarchization, which ended in November 1917 with the Great October Revolution, very tragically.
Further more, and almost the entire twentieth century can be attributed to the stage of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, and subsequently the formation of new, almost completely independent states in the territories previously belonging to Russia. Thus, all the rulers of Russia, from Rurik to Putin, will help us better understand the path we have taken up to this point, point out the advantages and disadvantages, sort out the priorities and clearly weed out historical mistakes so as not to repeat them in the future, again and again.
Russian rulers in chronological order: Novgorod and Kyiv - where I came from
Historical materials, which have no reason to doubt, for this period, which begins in 862 and ends with the end of the reign of the Kyiv princes, are actually quite scarce. However, they allow us to understand the chronology of the rulers of Russia at that time, although at that time such a state simply did not exist.
Interesting
The chronicle of the twelfth century, “The Tale of Bygone Years,” makes it clear that in 862, the great warrior and strategist, famous for his enormous strength of mind, the Varangian Rurik, taking his brothers, went at the invitation of local tribes to reign in the capital city of Novgorod. In fact, it was then that a turning point in the history of Russia came, called the “calling of the Varangians,” which ultimately helped unite the Novgorod principalities with the Kyiv principalities.
Varangian from the people of Rus' Rurik replaced Prince Gostomysl, and came to power in 862. He ruled until 872, when he died, leaving his young son Igor, who might not have been his only offspring, in the care of his distant relative Oleg.
Since 872, regent Prophetic Oleg, left to look after Igor, decided not to limit himself to the Novgorod principality, captured Kyiv and moved his capital there. It was rumored that he did not die from an accidental snake bite in 882 or 912, but it is no longer possible to find out thoroughly.
After the death of the regent in 912, Rurik’s son came to power, Igor, which is the first of the Russian rulers to be clearly traced in both Western and Byzantine sources. In the fall, Igor decided to collect tribute from the Drevlyans in a larger amount than was required, for which they treacherously killed him.
Prince Igor's wife Duchess Olga ascended the throne after the death of her husband in 945, and managed to convert to Christianity even before the final decision on the baptism of Rus' was made.
Formally, after Igor, his son ascended the throne, Svyatoslav Igorevich. However, since at that time he was three years old, his mother Olga became regent, whom he successfully moved after 956, until he was killed by the Pechenegs in 972.
In 972, the eldest son of Svyatoslav and his wife Predslava came to power - Yaropolk Svyatoslavovich. However, he only had to sit on the throne for two years. Then he simply fell into the millstone of civil strife, was killed and ground into the “flour of time.”
In 970, the son of Svyatoslav Igorevich ascended to the Novgorod throne from his personal housekeeper Malusha, Prince Vladimir Svyatoslavich, who later received the nickname for accepting Christianity Great and Baptist. Eight years later, he ascended the Kiev throne, seizing it, and also moving his capital there. It is he who is considered the prototype of that same epic character, covered for centuries with glory and a certain mystical aura, Vladimir the Red Sun.
Grand Duke Yaroslav Vladimirovich the Wise sat on the Kiev throne in 1016, which he managed to seize under the guise of unrest, which arose after the death of his father Vladimir, and after him his brother Svyatopolk.
From 1054, the son of Yaroslav and his wife, the Swedish princess Ingigerda (Irina), named Izyaslav, began to rule in Kyiv, until he died heroically in the midst of a battle against his own uncles in 1068. Buried Izyaslav Yaroslavich at the iconic Hagia Sophia in Kyiv.
Starting from this period, that is, 1068, several personalities ascended the throne who did not leave any serious mark in historical terms.
Grand Duke, by name Svyatopolk Izyaslavovich took the throne already in 1093 and ruled until 1113.
It was at this moment in 1113 that one of the greatest Russian princes of his time came to power Vladimir Vsevolodovich Monomakh that he left the throne after just twelve years.
For the next seven years, until 1132, the son of Monomakh, named Mstislav Vladimirovich.
Beginning in 1132, and again for exactly seven years, the throne was occupied by Yaropolk Vladimirovich, also the son of the great Monomakh.
Fragmentation and civil strife in Ancient Rus': the rulers of Russia in order and at random
It must be said that the Russian rulers, the chronology of whose leadership is offered to you for general education and increasing knowledge about their own historical basis, always cared for the statehood and prosperity of their own people, one way or another. They consolidated their positions in the European arena as best they could, but their calculations and aspirations were not always justified, but one cannot judge their ancestors too harshly; one can always find several weighty or not so weighty arguments in favor of one or another decision.
During the period when Rus' was a deeply feudal land, fragmented into the smallest principalities, persons on the throne of Kyiv changed at a catastrophic speed, without even having time to accomplish anything more or less significant. Around the middle of the thirteenth century, Kyiv generally fell into complete decline, leaving only a few names about that period in the memory of descendants.
Great Russian rulers: chronology of the Vladimir principality
The beginning of the twelfth century for Rus' was marked by the emergence of late feudalism, the weakening of the principality of Kyiv, as well as the emergence of several other centers from which strong pressure was observed from large feudal lords. The largest such centers were Galich and Vladimir. It is worth dwelling in some detail on the princes of that era, although they did not leave a significant mark on the history of modern Russia, and perhaps their role was simply not yet appreciated by their descendants.
Rulers of Russia: list of times of the Moscow Principality
After it was decided to move the capital to Moscow from the previously capital Vladimir, the feudal fragmentation of the Russian lands began to gradually decrease, and the main center, of course, began to gradually and unobtrusively increase its own political influence. And the rulers of that time became much more fortunate; they managed to hold on to the throne longer than the miserable Vladimir princes.
Since 48 of the sixteenth century, difficult times have come in Russia. The ruling dynasty of princes actually collapsed and ceased to exist. This period is usually called timelessness, when real power was in the hands of boyar families.
Monarchical rulers of Russia: chronology before and after Peter I
Historians are accustomed to distinguishing three periods of formation and development of Russian monarchical rule: the pre-Petrine period, the reign of Peter, and the post-Petrine period.
After difficult troubled times, the glorified Bulgakov came to power. Ivan Vasilievich Grozny(from 1548 to 1574).
After the father of Ivan the Terrible, his son was blessed to reign Feodor, nicknamed the Blessed(from 1584 to 1598).
It is worth knowing that Tsar Fyodor Ivanovich was the last of the Rurik family, but he was never able to leave an heir. People considered him inferior, both in terms of health and mental abilities. Beginning in the year 98 of the sixteenth century, times of unrest began, which lasted until the year 12 of the next century. The rulers changed like pictures in a silent movie, each pulling in his own direction, thinking little about the good of the state. In 1612, a new royal dynasty, the Romanovs, came to power.
The first representative of the royal dynasty was Michael, he spent time on the throne from 1613 to 1645.
Alexey's son Fedor took the throne in 76 and spent exactly 6 years on it.
Sofya Alekseevna, his blood sister was involved in government from 1682 until 1689.
Peter I ascended the throne as a young man in 1689, and remained on it until 1725. This was the greatest period in Russian history, the country finally gained stability, the economy took off, and the new king began to call himself emperor.
In 1725, the throne was occupied by Ekaterina Skavronskaya, and left him in 1727.
In 30 she sat on the throne Queen Anna, and ruled for exactly 10 years.
Ivan Antonovich stayed on the throne for only a year, from 1740 to 1741.
Ekaterina Petrovna ran from 41 to 61 years old.
In 1962 she took the throne Catherine the Great, where she stayed until 1996.
Pavel Petrovich(from 1796 to 1801).
Following Paul came Alexander I (1081-1825).
Nicholas I came to power in 1825 and left it in 1855.
A tyrant and a slob, but very responsible Alexander II had the opportunity to bite his family's legs by lying on the floor from 1855 to 1881.
The very last of the Russian tsars Nicholas II, ruled the country until 1917, after which the dynasty was completely and unconditionally interrupted. Moreover, it was then that a completely new political system called a republic was formed.
Soviet rulers of Russia: in order from the revolution to the present day
The first Russian ruler after the revolution was Vladimir Ilyich Lenin, who formally ruled the huge colossus of workers and peasants until 1924.

Due to the stampede that occurred during his coronation, many people died. Thus, the name “Bloody” was attached to the kindest philanthropist Nikolai. In 1898, caring for world peace, he issued a manifesto calling on all countries in the world to completely disarm. After this, a special commission met in The Hague to develop a number of measures that could further prevent bloody clashes between countries and peoples. But the peace-loving emperor had to fight. First in the First World War, then the Bolshevik coup broke out, as a result of which the monarch was overthrown, and then he and his family were shot in Yekaterinburg.
