Nikolai 1 Pavlovich Romanov.

A high school student. Black curls, blue eyes, fair skin, medium height, thin. Brave, emotional, always stands up for and protects those he loves and values. A future great poet.

In the foreign policy of Nicholas I, several directions can be distinguished:
The fight against revolutions in Europe. The Emperor considered the suppression of any liberation movements to be his primary goal in order to preserve the monarchical foundations. For his role as the "gendarme of Europe," which he played in suppressing the Polish uprising of 1830–1831 and the Hungarian revolution of 1849, Nicholas I earned this nickname.

The solution to the "Eastern Question." Russia sought to strengthen its position on the Black Sea coast, protect its southern borders, secure control of the Bosphorus and Dardanelles straits, and protect the Orthodox population of the Balkans. This resulted in the Russo-Persian War of 1826–1828 and the Russo-Turkish War of 1828–1829.

Caucasian War (1817–1864).

The Crimean War of 1853–1856 ended with Russia's defeat and the signing of the Treaty of Paris, under which the country lost the southern part of Bessarabia and the right to station a navy and military forts in the Black Sea.

The reign of Nicholas I marked an era of bureaucratic centralization and the search for a national idea. Some key areas of domestic policy:
Increased centralization and bureaucratization of government. The functions of His Imperial Majesty's Chancellery (HIM) expanded, becoming the most important institution in the country. In 1826, the Third Section of the HIM was created for political investigation, and in 1827, the Separate Corps of Gendarmes.

Codification of legislation. Under the direction of M. M. Speransky, the "Complete Collection of Laws of the Russian Empire" was published in 1830, and the "Code of Laws of the Russian Empire" in 1833.

Reforms to the peasant question. Secret committees were created to discuss reforms, measures were taken to improve the situation of state peasants (P.D. Kiselev's reform), and the ban on the public sale of peasants, which resulted in the separation of families, was prohibited. In 1842, a decree on "obligated peasants" was issued, allowing landowners to grant freedom to serfs in exchange for service. However, serfdom was not completely abolished under Nicholas I.

Infrastructure development. In 1837, the first railway in Russia, the St. Petersburg–Tsarskoye Selo line, opened.

Nicholas was not trained for the role of emperor—his primary focus was military affairs. From childhood, he was fascinated by engineering, fortification, and draftsmanship. In 1810, he began his military service. In 1817, he married the Prussian princess Friederike Louise Charlotte Wilhelmina, who, after converting to Orthodoxy, received the name Alexandra Feodorovna.

A turning point in Nicholas's fate came in 1825. His elder brother, Emperor Alexander I, had no children, and his second brother, Grand Duke Konstantin Pavlovich, entered into a morganatic marriage and formally renounced his claim to the throne. Alexander I signed a secret manifesto appointing Nicholas as his heir. However, few knew the document's contents, and after Alexander I's death in 1825, an interregnum ensued. This led to the Decembrist uprising of December 14, 1825, which Nicholas I brutally suppressed.

Nicholas I Pavlovich (June 25 (July 6) 1796 – February 18 (March 2) 1855) – Emperor of All the Russias, Tsar of Poland, and Grand Duke of Finland. The third son of Emperor Paul I and Empress Maria Feodorovna, brother of Alexander I, and father of Alexander II.
