Catherine the Great, or Catherine II, had many notable accomplishments. Under her leadership, the domain of the Russian Empire was noticeably expanded. She reformed the administration of the government bureaucracy. She showed spectacular aptitude in foreign policy, expanding her country by 200,000 square miles during her reign. Despite being considered an "enlightened monarch", she wound up increasing the power of the landed nobles during her reign, and did not considerably improve the lot of the peasants. She did initiate many reforms. However nobles opposed the reforms since it damaged their power, and others weren't satisfied and wanted even more reform. This led to agitation and civil unrest in the form of riots and rebellions, most notably Pugachev's Rebellion. Catherine backtracked on many of her reforms, reacted brutally towards the peasants and increased repression of the serfs.
