Tsesarevna
Tsesarevich (, ) was the title of the heir apparent or heir presumptive, presumptive in the Russian Empire. It either preceded or replaced the Eastern Slavic naming customs, given name and patronymic. Usage It is often confused with the much more general term tsarevich, the title for any son of any tsar, including non-Russian rulers such as those of Crimean Khanate, Crimea, Siberia Khanate, Siberia, and Kartl-Kakheti, Georgia. Normally, there was only one ''tsesarevich'' at a time (an exception was Grand Duke Konstantin Pavlovich of Russia, Grand Duke Konstantin Pavlovich, who was accorded the title until death, even though law gave it to his nephew), and the title was used exclusively in Russia. The title came to be used invariably in tandem with the formal style "Successor" (), as in "His Imperial Highness the Successor Tsesarevich and Grand Prince". The wife of the ''Tsesarevich'' was the tsesarevna (). History In 1721 Peter the Great discontinued use of "tsar" as his m ...

The Apostle Paul's exhortation to Timothy specified that intercession prayers should be made for all people.

Yet Jesus Christ, who is our true life, has the power of ffectingthis". Throughout all of Ignatius's letters, the word for prayers of intercession appears nineteen times, and Ignatius asks ...

16th-century Russian Women
The 16th century began with the Julian year 1501 (represented by the Roman numerals MDI) and ended with either the Julian or the Gregorian year 1600 (MDC), depending on the reckoning used (the Gregorian calendar introduced a lapse of 10 days in October 1582). The Renaissance in Italy and Europe saw the emergence of important artists, authors and scientists, and led to the foundation of important subjects which include accounting and political science. Copernicus proposed the heliocentric universe, which was met with strong resistance, and Tycho Brahe refuted the theory of celestial spheres through observational measurement of the 1572 appearance of a Milky Way supernova. These events directly challenged the long-held notion of an immutable universe supported by Ptolemy and Aristotle, and led to major revolutions in astronomy and science. Galileo Galilei became a champion of the new sciences, invented the first thermometer and made substantial contributions in the fields of phy ...

People From The Tsardom Of Russia
The term "the people" refers to the public or common mass of people of a polity. As such it is a concept of human rights law, international law as well as constitutional law, particularly used for claims of popular sovereignty. In contrast, a people is any plurality of persons considered as a whole. Used in politics and law, the term "a people" refers to the collective or community of an ethnic group or nation. Concepts Legal Chapter One, Article One of the Charter of the United Nations states that "peoples" have the right to self-determination. Though the mere status as peoples and the right to self-determination, as for example in the case of Indigenous peoples (''peoples'', as in all groups of indigenous people, not merely all indigenous persons as in ''indigenous people''), does not automatically provide for independent sovereignty and therefore secession. Indeed, judge Ivor Jennings identified the inherent problems in the right of "peoples" to self-determination, as i ...
