When Peter the Great came to power in Russia he changed everything. He wanted Russia to be like the Western countries, more industrialized. He made everything he could be more like the West, school, military, court, language, everything. 100, 200 years later, looking back on his reign, people began to wonder, "Did he go too far? Was there something good and uniquely Russian that we had that got lost in our haste to change?"
"Can we ever get it back?"
Well it was me who wanted to change
