	Yemelyan Pugachev - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Yemelyan Ivanovich Pugachev (Russian: Емелья́н Ива́нович Пугачёв), born in 1740 or 1742 and executed in 1775, was a pretender to the Russian throne who led a great Cossack insurrection during the reign of Catherine II.
		Pugachev, the son of a small Don Cossack landowner, married a Cossack girl, Sofia Nedyuzheva, in 1758, and in the same year participated in Seven Years' War as part of the Cossack expedition to Prussia under the command of Count Zakhar Chernyshev.
		Pugachev told the story that he and his principal adherents had escaped from the clutches of Catherine, and had now resolved to redress the grievances of the people, give absolute liberty to the Cossacks, and put Catherine herself away in a monastery.

		Yemelian Ivanovich Pugachev (Russian: Емелья́н Ива́нович Пугачёв, best transliterated as Emel'yan Ivanovich Pugachov), born in 1740 or 1742 and executed in 1775, was a pretender to the Russian throne who led a Cossack insurrection during the reign of Catherine II.
		The story of Pugachev's strong resemblance to the murdered tsar Peter III, who in 1762 had been overthrown by his wife, the future empress Catherine II, comes from a later legend.
		Pugachev dubbed himself Peter III the better to attract to his standard all those numerous dissidents who attributed their misery to the government of Catherine, for the populace generally remembered Peter as Catherine's determined opponent.

	MSN Encarta - Catherine the Great
		An illiterate Don cossack, Yemelyan Pugachev, took advantage of grievances among cossacks of the Ural Mountains and the fact that the bulk of the army was away fighting the Ottomans to raise the banner of revolt.
		Pugachev proclaimed himself Emperor Peter III (he and his supporters claimed the tsar had escaped the murder, which they said Catherine had plotted, 11 years earlier).
		The empress referred to herself as the “first landlord of the realm.” The new system of local self-government, which she introduced in 1775 and which lasted until 1864, was related to the Pugachev rebellion and the resulting panic and collapse of all local authority.

		There were numerous rebellions against this bondage, most often in conjunction with Cossack uprisings, such as uprisings of Ivan Bolotnikov (1606-1607), Stenka Razin (1667-1671), Kondraty Bulavin (1707-1709), and Yemelyan Pugachev (1773-1775).
		While the Cossack uprisings benefited from the peasant disturbances, and in turn received an impetus from Cossack rebellion, none of the Cossack movements were directed against the institution of serfdom itself.
		Between the end of the Pugachev rebellion and the end of the eighteenth century, there were hundreds of outbreaks across Russia, and there was never a time when the peasantry was completely quiescent.

		Gradually the necessity of a fortress fell away completely and in 1688 Samara became an ordinary town which witnessed both the traffic of merchants’ caravans and the spreading of peasant unrest, common for Russia of that time.
		Historic data say the citizens took rather an active part in the major people’s movements and gave a cordial welcome to at least two legendary leaders of rebels, Stepan Razin and Yemelyan Pugachev.
		Having a large and active population, Samara was elevated to a major city of an uyezd (“district” in Russian) in 1781 and a new stage of the development of the city began with the foundation of the Samara Region in 1851.

		Catherine the Great embarked on a programme of reforms during her reign, though she made it clear that she had no intention of limiting her authority.
		But any ideas she might have had of improving the lives of the peasants were suspended indefinitely following a peasant rebellion led by the Don Cossack Yemelyan Pugachev in 1773-74.
		When Catherine died in 1796 the throne passed to her son, Paul I. A mysterious figure in Russian history (often called the Russian Hamlet by Western scholars), he antagonised the gentry with attempts to end some of their privileges, and was killed in a coup in 1801.
