I am Ivan III Vasilyevich of Muscovy, and I was born in 1440 A.D.. I have eight children, six sons, and two daughters. I was the Grand Duke of Russia since I was 22 and I’m a part of the reason why Russia is as big as it is today. I expanded Russia not by war, but dy diplomatically uniting Russian kingdoms. When I started growing Russia it was about half of modern day Kazakhstan and when I was done it stretched from eastern Europe to Siberia. While I was Duke I made the first written laws for Russia and I started the reign of Muscovite Russia. I should get this job because I was a great ruler, and I was very influential.

I trained under my father for 22 years until I became Grand Duke. As I train to be Grand Duke I was Grand Prince, and I had many roles to play when I was Prince. I also learned how to read and write during the Dark Ages. After an unsuccessful coup and the blinding of my father I led the charge against the Khanate of Kazan and won. I fought in many wars, some as a soldier and some as a general. …show more content…
I had weaker surrounding kings join my empire and consolidated power in Russia. By the end of my conquests Russia grew tenfold it grew from Moscow all the way to Eastern Europe to Siberia. After I married my wife Sophia Palaiologina she was the last Byzantine princess and Russia became a “third Roman Empire”. With my wife Sophia I wrote Russia’s first written laws and built the Kremlin walls which still stands today at 16-62

The people of the world are an audience to which the Illuminati entertain with propaganda. Just one of the thousands of recent examples of this type of acting done for the public was President Bill Clinton’s 1995 State of the Union address. The speech was designed to push all of the warm fuzzy buttons of his listening audience that he could. All the green lights for acceptance were systematically pushed by the President’s speech with the help of a controlled congressional audience. The truth on the other hand doesn’t always tickle the ear and warm the ego of its listeners. The light of truth in this book will be too bright for some people who will want to return to the safe comfort of their darkness. I am not a conspiracy theorist. I deal with real facts, not theory. Some of the people I write about, I have met. Some of the people I expose are alive and very dangerous. The darkness has never liked the light. Yet, many of the secrets of the Illuminati are locked up tightly simply because secrecy is a way...
