It was not until 1861 that feudalism was dominant economic system - a system in which other European countries were destroyed around 1600 -. Feudalism and serfdom creates self-sufficiency agriculture, which does not leave much surplus in taxes and exports. From the 1960's to the 1970's, Alexander II is the first time that Russia is not an industrialized country.
The emperor was one of the last in the world of the equalityism monarch and by the year 1800 some sort of national parliament was held in most parts of Europe. There are no political representatives, elections, political parties. Several changes were made in the 1860s - city councils, state councils, state councils (Zemstvos), village municipalities (Mir) institutionalized, but they supported aristocracy and were not the majority of the population.
Literacy rate is less than 5%. Women are not permitted to take careers or higher education. Jews can only live in certain areas, they are prohibited from living in the capital or Moscow and can not engage in a specific occupation.

In the 17th century, Russia was regarded as a retrograde and barbaric country from the eyes of major European countries. But after the rule of Peter the Great, this view changed and Russia was no longer considered a retreating country in the Middle Ages and has played a major role in the European equilibrium of power. The period during which this research guide focuses is the latter half of the death of Peter the Great from the year when it came to power in 1682 and ended in 1800. It is the heritage after death in 1725)
In 1825, when the Emperor Nicholas held power, the seed of the revolution lasted. Under his rule, Russia is a retreating country. Other countries have railways, scientific agriculture and industry, but Russia is still agriculture, superstitious agriculture, and horseback riding. Nicholas changed the country and refused to make it more west. This brought Russia behind the late 19th and early 20th century era. After Nicholas, Alexander II took power and used his logic to advance Russia. His first major reform was the release of serfs. On the surface, this release seems to be wonderful for Russia and gives hope to them. But it will burst. The newly released land is very few, head tax is 10% more than gentry. In addition, they also need to pay land redemption.
In the first half of the 19th century I found that in most parts of Western Europe it is "behind feudalism in Russia". It is an integral part of Asia and is considered not representative of European thought. Indeed, at the beginning of the century, farmers ("Saulus") were regarded as assets of the feudal master as they were living a miserable life and can easily be traded. However, they have more rights than slaves and acquired freedom only in 1861. However, with the rapid spread of state secondary education and university education, the number of educated nobility is also increasing. These upper class members are enjoying an elegant way of life but they have a strong interest in the cultural revolution that occurred i
