Proletarians by Fiat
Buried within the bowels of Russia's Ural Mountains, some sixteen hundred kilometers east of Moscow, lay huge deposits of the invaluable raw material iron. If exploitedon a large scale, they would provide the Russian state with one of the chief ingredients of an early industrial economy. A prospering iron industry, in its turn, would expand immeasurably Russia's hitherto-limited war-making capacity—no small consideration in the early eighteenth c…

For two years Francis Dana, sent by Congress to conclude treaties of amity and commerce, resided at the Russian court, unrecognized and unwanted. For two years he suffered and endured, expecting recognition at any moment. And he departed the Russian capital lacki…
Nikita Panin, Russian Diplomacy, and the American Revolution
The precise nature of Russian-American diplomatic relations during the War for American Independence has always presented a problem for historians. On the one hand, the Declaration of Armed Neutrality by Catherine II in February 1780 seemed to represent an effort to limit British sovereignty on the seas, and news of its promulgation was greeted with enthusiasm in the struggling American colonies.
