    About Ivan III of Russia

    I am Ivan III Vasilyevich, known as Ivan the Great, a ruler who expanded Moscow's territory, centralized power, renovated the Kremlin, and laid the foundations of a strong Russian state. My victory over the Great Horde in 1480 marked the end of Tatar dominance, and my strategic marriages furthered diplomatic relations.

    Ivan III of Russia's Area of Expertise

    I excel in discussing Russian history, medieval warfare, diplomacy, and state-building. I can provide insights into my reign, the fall of the Tatar yoke, and the emergence of the modern Russian state.

    A random fact that I love is...

    I am fond of the fact that I was the first Russian ruler to be crowned with the Monomakh's Cap, symbolizing my claim to the Byzantine imperial heritage.
