Just like Queen Elizabeth’s. Watching this makes me revive the day of mine and Woody.EXE’s Coronation in Wales 2023. I had been ill 6 months prior to the coronation so I was very unstable walking down the Abbey but it was my duty to do so. I can remember my entire family especially my sister, Princess of Wales and Mummy, Princess of Wales crying their eyes out when they witnessed Woody.EXE finally being crowned after 6 months of waiting and i cried on live. It’s not Wales without me and Woody.EXE in it
Say what you will about Catherine but she was remarkable. She was born in a minor German principality and became the ruler of the largest empire of the world.
But in actuality wasn't she a German who married the Tsar and then seized the throne? But anyway one of the greatest rulers of all time-be it man or woman.
@@gidzmobug2323 I have the honor to be Russian, I'm proud of it I will defend My Motherland with my tongue, and with a pen, and with a sword - as long as I have enough life ... Ekaterina's words
I think the issue was Paul. Peter was forced to accept another man's son as his own and as his official heir. That must have been humiliating and frustrating. Peter was sterile from having caught smallpox as a teenager. So, it was actually a necessity for Catherine to produce an heir with another man. In the early years of Peter and Catherine's marriage, Empress Elizabeth kept a very tight rein on both of them and tried to force them to love each other. Elizabeth accepted the truth years later and gave Catherine more freedom, with the intention that Catherine might somehow turn up pregnant with an official Romanov heir. It worked as intended. When Peter became emperor, he actually interviewed Paul's biological father and tried to get him to admit to the fact. It didn't work, but it showed Catherine that Peter intended to get rid of her. Peter was also trying to get his mistress pregnant but without success. Had Peter been able to do so, he could have swept Catherine aside and into a nunnery or prison, and Peter could have imprisoned Paul also. Catherine knew for sure that Peter was sterile, and in fact, no woman ever claimed to have produced a child by Peter. However, Catherine must have still been nervous that Peter's mistress would turn up pregnant. There was no DNA paternity testing back then. If Peter believed the child was his, it was a done deal. I've said all this to say that Peter actually precipitated his own demise by forcing Catherine to plot against him for the throne. Catherine had her own fate to worry about, as well as that of her son. Catherine knew how bold of an ambition it was to even consider trying to usurp the throne of Peter the Great's grandson, but Peter's foolish behavior and political blunders, in particular his hero worship of Frederick the Great, made it all possible.
@@ermiasd2695 Catherine was better for Russia then Peter. He was such a fanboy of Frederick the Great that he effectively put Prussia above his own country. He withdrew Russia from the Seven Years’ War and ended the Russian occupation of East Prussia just because of his admiration for Frederick, meaning the Russian effort during the war had brought no gain at all. His pro-German manners were not just disliked by the nobles, but also by the soldiers and commoners, with his harsh Prussian style of military drill and customs being especially unpopular. Democratic or autocratic, a leader must not put another country above his/her own nation and people. And note there was no democratic movement in Russia at the time that could have been a possibly better alternative to Catherine taking over the throne...
That little boy, her son, was the one who enacted regulations concerning the succession, eliminating women from being ruler. It ultimately aided in the destruction of the monarchy in the early 20th century.
Because she crowns herself Empress after being anointed? That's how the Roman imperial ceremonial was supposed to be until Pope Leo subverted it (causing Charlemagne to leave the Basilica in a foul mood, cf Einhard, his biographer).
It was traditional to do so, as said. It represents that the monarch is God's ruler on earth, anointed by the Church, but with its own authority. Remember, the original Councils were called by the Emperor. Also, there is no Pope in the East. In the West, the Pope became a political ruler (think Papal States), and thus by extension bishops crowned. There was obvious symbolism in God giving power to the monarch, not man himself, but the anointing was sufficient in the Eastern mind. For the West, the power given to the monarch was by placing of the crown, too....it does make sense...but it goes back to the papal authority issue...in the Eastern Orthodox Church...it can get a bit complex perhaps, but that's a simple overview.

Very beautiful. It's interesting to know that during the coronation the tsar was allowed to take his communion with the priests behind the icon screen. This was the only time that this was permitted. Women were not allowed behind the icon screen. But Catherine the Great did it. She was a great woman.
It's not ironic at all, considering that she became Russian when she married Piotr. Even less so when you realise that his putting the Russian Orthodox clergy in Lutheran robes and the Russian army in Prussian uniforms is a taste of what she's referring to, when she denounces her husband for humiliating the Church, the Army and the Nation. 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝
Catherine The Great was actually born in Szczecin, Poland. Not even her husband Peter was Russian, he was from Germany, but he became the Tsar as a result of his bloodline.
No, she was born in Stettin, Prussia. And yes, they both were german by blood. But unlike her husband, she became more russian than some of russians. There was even proverb in Russia: "Russian Peter (the first, not husband of Catherine, who was the third) wanted us to become german, but german Catherine made us russian."
Tea and coffee is the basis for all beer and whiskey. The decent ones. Alec "McGuinness" Montgomery and Edward "Newcastle- Marrone"/"tea only" O'Hara.. William Alistair McDonald is my grandfather so I would know!
Catherine would hardly be an icon for femisim. Russia remained very much a patriarchy under her absolute rule, all members of her ruling counsel and ministers remained 100% male. The ruling class and religious order remained all male. She sympathized with the so called enlightenment, but if it threaten the social order, or her power it was crushed. She did nothing bring gender equality to Russia, nor was it on her agenda. Next, she didn't hate or dislike men. Finally, the primary factor to her becoming empress of Russia was because she had a lot of powerful male support encouraging her to take the throne, and actively conspiring to push power into her hands and away from Peter. I don't this qualifies her as an icon of feminism.
She didn't really like women to be considered feminist. Even Dashkova, the woman who worshipped her and helped her get to power, was treated as a joke by her. She enjoyed male company much more. Maybe because women were much less educated at the time?

French was the lingua Franca of European nobility and their courts. Peter the Great made French the court language, not until after Napoleon did Russian become the official language for Russian nobles and the Tsars court.
A great, rousing, pro-Russia speech from a German princess. Catherine was a crafty one--she saw she could gain power if only she became far more nationalistic than her dumb husband. Her husband had also been raised in a German court when young, but he was too silly and stoopid to realize that the Russians wanted a Russian leader. As soon as she landed in St. Petersburg, Catherine sussed out the situation quite quickly, enthusiastically converted to Russian Orthodoxy, and crammed as quickly as possible her language lessons so she could become totally fluent in Russian within a few years. Then when her dumb husband gave away all the lands the Russian armies had sacrificed for and won in the Seven Years' War to Frederick the Great of Prussia--her husband's personal hero!--while Russia got nothing in return, that's when she realized she could strike and overthrow him. And she struck alright. Crafty, crafty...
SARAH FERGUSON , BY TURNING INTO AN ACTRESS, WILLL BE A GOOD CATHERINE, THE GREAT, OF RUSSIA . SARAH WILL ACT NORMALLY , WILL NOT BE HARD FOR HER, TO ACT AS CATHERINE, THE GREAT.
The Russian Orthodox Tsars crowned themselves...it actually is a theological matter on how the Pope became a political ruler, and thus, crowned, through bishops, rulers. In the East, there is the original concept of how the Emperor called the Councils. Thus, the Emperor, while subject to God obviously, plays a strong role in the Church...it gets into theological differences with the Great Schism and the papacy. Remember, there were the Papal States.
She did not build the empire, she sat down on a throne of the empire which was built by the Russian tsars to her. The first official emperor of Russia was Pyotr 1
Catherine The Great, Taurean ♉. Queen Joan of France (Jeanne de Valois, 23rd April 1464) Taurean ♉. Queen Anne Boleyn, Taurean ♉, if she was born 5th May 1507 Archduchess Maria Theresa of Austria, Taurean ♉. Queen Mary ll of England, Scotland and Ireland, Taurean ♉. Maria Christina of The Two Sicilies, Queen of Spain, Taurean ♉. Queen Isabella of Castille, born April 22, 1451, Taurean ♉. Juliana of The Netherlands, Taurean ♉. Queen Elizabeth ll of The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, Taurean ♉. (Princess Charlotte, Taurean ♉ should her elder brother abdicate).
So this is just apophenia; which means you’re seeing patterns where none exist. You’re trying to allege that great female queens were born in Taurus. However, only three on your list would be considered great queens, Mary II is forgotten to history, eclipsed by her husband and her sister. Your list also precludes two of the most famous female rulers in history: Queen Elizabeth I & Queen Victoria. Moreover three of your names weren’t/aren’t queens. Side note: Queen Elizabeth II’s official birthday is in June with the trooping of the color. Yes she was born in April, but the monarchy only recognizes her June birthday, hence why the jubilees are held then.
@@johndavidson3600, Says you. Queen Mary ll is not at all forgotten. She was a much more thoughtful Queen towards all the people of her realms than her self indulging lesbian sister (Queen Anne, Aquarius ) who got so fat she had to be lifted in and out of carriages. Queen Elizabeth ll was born 21st April 1926 she is not a June baby. She draws towards the end of her long reign having failed The Church of England. Tony Blair had the consideration to convert to Catholisism after he stepped down, Boris Johnson, on the other hand rides over Queen and Country and doesn't care, he shares his birthday with King James lst of England, Gemini, The King who brought us The King James Bible of 1611, still so relevant today. Queen Victoria (Gemini) was not the greatest Queen, for forty years of her reign she wore black and grieved for Albert, basically self indulgent. The most productive thing she did was produce children who married other Royals in other countries. My distant relation Richard Wagner met her once. Queen Elizabeth l, Protestant Virgo, successful.

So this is just apophenia; which means you’re seeing patterns where none exist. You’re trying to allege that great female queens were born in Taurus. However, only three on your list would be considered great queens, Mary II is forgotten to history, eclipsed by her husband and her sister. Your list also precludes two of the most famous female rulers in history: Queen Elizabeth I & Queen Victoria. Moreover three of your names weren’t/aren’t queens. Side note: Queen Elizabeth II’s official birthday is in June with the trooping of the color. Yes she was born in April, but the monarchy only recognizes her June birthday, hence why the jubilees are held then.
@@johndavidson3600,
Says you.
Queen Mary ll is not at all forgotten. She was a much more thoughtful Queen towards all the people of her realms than her self indulging lesbian sister (Queen Anne, Aquarius ) who got so fat she had to be lifted in and out of carriages.
Queen Elizabeth ll was born 21st April 1926 she is not a June baby. She draws towards the end of her long reign having failed The Church of England. Tony Blair had the consideration to convert to Catholisism after he stepped down, Boris Johnson, on the other hand rides over Queen and Country and doesn't care, he shares his birthday with King James lst of England, Gemini, The King who brought us The King James Bible of 1611, still so relevant today.
Queen Victoria (Gemini) was not the greatest Queen, for forty years of her reign she wore black and grieved for Albert, basically self indulgent. The most productive thing she did was produce children who married other Royals in other countries. My distant relation Richard Wagner met her once.
Queen Elizabeth l, Protestant Virgo, successful.
Uprated.
None - This is Imperial Russia!

But it is in our powA to write the futurA!
Love that accent :)
What a miserable coronation in front of a crowd of soldiers? Why not in Moscow? :-)
Should have retaken Constantinople while she had the chance.. the great what could have been
Ummm wasn't she a Russian monarch not a British one??
She is. What made you ask that question?
JD Lancelot her accent is british
+Vivie 0X0 so you feel that she should use Russian accent?
JD Lancelot yea
+Vivie 0X0 I think as far as the language used in films are concerned, English is widely understood. some more her slang sounds aristocratic. sexy too.
