Rangtabelle
Peter's distrust of the elitist and anti-reformist Boyars culminated in 1722 with the creation of the "Table of Ranks" (; "Tabel' o rangakh"), a formal list of ranks in the Russian military, government, and royal court. The Table of Ranks established a complex system of titles and honorifics, each classed with a number (I to XIV) denoting a specific level of service or loyalty to the Tsar. The origins of the Table of Ranks lie in Russia's military ranking system, which was also significantly modified and revised under Peter's rule.
