He was accused of murder by Shouisky, but it seems unlikely that his victim would have been recognized as legitimate by Patriarch Job anyway.
He was accused of murder by Shouisky, but it seems unlikely that his victim would have been recognized as legitimate by Patriarch Job anyway. He became regent thanks to his sister Irena's marriage, and in that role he instituted the ukaz, which tied serfs to their land. When his brother-in-law Fyodor died, he was elected tsar, and things went relatively well until the brother of Fyodor whom he allegedly murdered reappeared as "the false Dimitrii." For 10 points, name the tsar whose sudden death brought about the Time of Troubles.
