Fair enough that the show doesn't strive for the insane amount of historical accuracy, and it mainly focuses on the homourus aspects which it does well, they could have had the real king of Sweden instead of prince Hugo, and noted that Peter III was actually a close relative to Charles XII
@erikbengt1074 The show genres itself as "anti-history". It even says in the title of each episode something about being not accurate historically. Surprised to find a Russian so easily offended.
@erik bengt Different points of view I believe. There are not many russian tsars we hate as much as her. That`s why watching this show is so bloody schizophrenic for me. :)
@erik bengt Did she mess with Poland? :) She was behind all three partitions of Poland (1772, 1793, 1795) after which we vanished from maps of Europe for 123 years (untill end of WWI). If I`m to choose three historical figures I hate the most those would be Hitler, Stalin and Sophie von Anhalt-Zerbst a.k.a. Catherine II. And "honorable mention" would go to Charles X Gustav who ruined Poland perhaps more than both Hitler and Stalin combined. ;)
