Vasily Tatishchev

Enlightened reformer and savvy historian Vasily Tatishchev has served in the military for some time, rising fast in the ranks only to take on an administrative position within a government bureau. He has requested to retire from active service and pursuit his writing instead, a request we must ponder since he could be of continued use by remaining at his governmental post.
