Count Grigory Aleksandrovich Potemkin, the son of a Russian officer, adjutant general, chief of foreign intelligence, the richest and most powerful official of the Russian Empire at the end of the 18th century, for better or for worse, met with an unknown, small German Princess Fike, who was destined to become the greatest ruler of the most powerful empire of the Age of Enlightenment. Count Potemkin's entire life was devoted to serving Russia and the Empress. He was respected, hated and feared, and admired. But he died, like many great people, lonely, betrayed and sold.
