		The mere fact that Catherine II, a small German princess without hereditary claim to the throne, ruled Russia from 1762 to 1796 amid the loyalty of the great mass of the people, and the respect and admiration of her neighbors, is sufficient proof of the force of her character.
		Though she had mounted the throne by a military revolt and entered on great schemes of conquest, she never took an intelligent interest in her army.
		She neglected it in peace, allowed it to be shamefully administered in war, and could never be made to understand that it was not in her power to improvise generals out of her favorites.
