Sofia Volgina's third book about Catherine the Great tells about the final years of her life, which were full of great deeds of the enlightened Russian Empress. She, “Voltaire’s student,” is quite rightly called the smartest head in all of Europe. Her private life is seething with love passions, which do not negatively affect her internal and external government activities. The main concern of the Russian Empress is taking care of her subjects. The ability to deeply understand people, the ability to use their best abilities for the benefit of the Fatherland, greatly influenced the progressive development of the entire state. Loud victories in the Russian-Turkish war, local government reforms, and the opening of schools for the common people not only strengthened her throne, but also brought Catherine the Great well-deserved popular love.
