George Kennan wrote a book about the Marquis de Custine's mocking comments on this ruler's court. Auguste de Montferrand designed the monument to this man that features Razamanov's depiction of him riding into Sennaya Square to stop a cholera riot. He built the Mariinsky Palace for his daughter, and his ministers negotiated an exclusivity clause for Russian ships in the (*) Dardanelles in return for sending aid against Muhammad Ali. Besides the Treaty of Hünkâr İskelesi, his reign saw Sergey Uvarov put forth the slogan of "Orthodoxy, Autocracy, and Populism." He presided during the November Uprising and came to power only because his brother Constantine refused, forcing him to quash the Decembrists. For 10 points, name this Russian tsar, a son of Paul who succeeded his brother Alexander I.
