???????? From the Principality of Muscovy to Eternal Russia, the land of tsars and Cossacks carries an imaginary marked by traditions and a desire for expansion. But what is the reality of this land ruled by the House of Romanov? What did the enlightened autocrats Peter the Great and Catherine II bring? Had Russia become a European power equal to France in the 17th and 18th centuries? What remains of these intellectual, artistic, diplomatic and industrial exchanges? Eric Pincas, Thierry Sarmant and their guests offer you a journey to the heart of Holy Russia, from the Kremlin to Peterhof Palace, from the Bering Strait to the banks of the Neva. With the participation of: Francine-Dominique Liechtenhan, research fellow at the CNRS, specialist in the history of Russia, author of Elisabeth I of Russia; Éric Pincas, journalist and editor-in-chief of the Historia magazine; Thierry Sarmant, historian and archivist, author of 1715. France and the World; Marie-Karine Schaub, lecturer in modern history, specialist in relations between Europe and Russia in the 17th century. ????
