Tsarist Russia was a freer current. Actually there In the centenary year of the revolution, many are discussing on how was Russia under the last Tsar. This is a discussion revived after the book of Michael Sigara “the Empire must die” and his speech at the St. Petersburg international cultural forum. In particular, they discussed the idea that tsarist Russia was a freer current.
