I have specified the dates as of Gregorian or Julian calendar dates as far as I can, but for some dates, I am not sure yet.--Jusjih 03:28, 29 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Trivia
I just saw a documentary on Catherine the Great on PBS in the USA where i learned that Elizabeth would have a weekly ball where the guests were to dress as a member of the opposite sex; the men hated that, and "The Tsarina's outfit fitted her remarkably well" (http://www.collider.com/dvd/archive_detail.asp?aid=2268&cid=3&tcid=3) --Jerome Potts 07:22, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
- Hmmm.... that's why she patronized Chevalier d'Eon... :) --Ghirla -трёп- 14:54, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Why was Elisabeth so loved by the average people?
Although I don't know either way on the statement, I find it rather farfetched to claim that zero persons were executed during a span of over twenty years. Could someone provide documentation? Nyttend 21:13, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
