Rather than pay any attention to the warnings that Catherine was coming for his title, Peter continued to play his violin and entertain his mistress. He also had no time for the Russian Orthodox Church, isolating him further. Peter didn’t have a lot of love for the country he ruled, while his support of Prussia’s Frederick II didn’t sit well with the nobility either. In the six months Peter was in charge he managed to anger all the wrong people, which includes military leaders and the church. Unlike the stalemate that takes place in the season 2 premiere and Peter’s choice to abdicate due to his hunger, it only took a matter of days for Catherine to take the throne. ![]() ![]() ![]() Sacha Dhawan and Douglas Hodge in 'The Great' (Image credit: Gareth Gatrell/Hulu)
