تاريخ روسيا
Vasili Tatishchev (1686–1750) was a prominent Russian statesman, historian, geographer, and economist, and author of "History of Russia Since Ancient Times", the first major comprehensive Russian history. He founded the cities of Perm and Yekaterinburg and, in 1737, Stavropol-on-Volga – the city which is now Tolyatti.
