- Elizaveta Petrovna (29 December [O.S. 18 December] 1709 ? 5 January 1762 [O.S. 25 December 1761]), also known as Yelisavet and Elizabeth, was the Empress of Russia from 1741 until her death. She led the country into the two major European conflicts of her time: the War of Austrian Succession (1740? 8) and the Seven Years' War (1756? 63). On the eve of her death, Russia spanned almost 4,000,000,000 acres (16,000,000 km2).
