		Vasily's grand nephew, Prince Vasily Vasilievich Nemoy ("the Mute") was Vasily III's taciturn aide-de-camp who accompanied him on every military campaign and came to become a grey cardinal of Muscovite politics.
		Upon the death of Vasily's widow, Elena Glinskaya, he challenged the authority of Prince Ivan Belsky, procured his incarceration, married Anastasia of Kazan (Ivan III's granddaughter), and proclaimed himself regent (1538).
		Vasily Nemoy died later that year, and the power devolved upon his younger brother, Prince Ivan Vasilievich Shuisky, who started his rule by ousting Metropolitan Daniel from office and contriving the election of Joasaphus Skripitsin as the new head of the Russian Orthodox Church.

	Ivan III of Russia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Sometimes referred to as the "gatherer of the Russian lands", he quadrupled the territory of his state, claimed Moscow to be a Third Rome, built the Moscow Kremlin, and laid foundations for the Russian autocracy.
		Deserted by Casimir IV, and surrounded on every side by the Muscovite armies, which included a Tatar contingent, the republic recognized Ivan as autocrat, and surrendered (January 14, 1478) all her prerogatives and possessions (the latter including the whole of northern Russia from Lapland to the Urals) into his hands.
		But the clever Greek lady prevailed in the end, and it was her son Vasily, not Maria of Tver's son, Ivan, who was ultimately crowned co-regent with his father (April 14, 1502).

		Russia's total population is around 145.5 million and it is decreasing at a rate of 0.33% per year (1999 estimate) due to low birth rate and high male mortality.
		However, the autocratic powers of the czar didn't reached a zenith until the reign of Ivan IV, who became known as "Ivan the Terrible" or Ivan the Dread." Ivan IV (1533-84) enlarged the scope of his control and consolidated his power to achieve unlimited rule, which included recognition by the Orthodox church as emperor.
