Answer to Tuesday Trivia:
D - Russia

Catherine the Great of Russia (1729-1796) was one of the most powerful leaders that large nation had ever known, and, once she organised the assassination of her weak husband Peter III, and took the throne as sole leader in his stead, this Prussian born Queen also took her adopted land, shook it up, dusted it off, revitalised and modernised it to such an extent that it grew to become one of the most powerful nations in the world. Unfortunately, by carrying on the relentless tradition followed by past and future leaders of her empire, these achievements came at the cost of maintaining a relentless grip on the throat of Russia's millions of serfs. This would ultimately bring about the downfall of Russia's monarchy in 1917.
