Answer 1

Events not related to the foreign policy of Nicholas I:

1. Синопское сражение (Battle of Sinop): The Battle of Sinop took place on November 30, 1853, during the Crimean War. It was a naval battle between the Russian and Ottoman Empire fleets in the Black Sea near the port of Sinop. The Russian fleet, under the command of Admiral Pavel Nakhimov, attacked and destroyed the Ottoman fleet, which consisted of outdated ships. The battle resulted in a significant victory for the Russians and led to increased tensions between Russia and the Western powers, ultimately leading to their intervention in the Crimean War. [[1]]

2. Подавление восстания в Венгрии (Suppression of the Hungarian Revolution): The Hungarian Revolution of 1848 was a widespread uprising against Habsburg rule in the Kingdom of Hungary. It began as a peaceful protest for political reforms but escalated into a full-scale revolution. The revolutionaries sought independence and democratic reforms. However, the Austrian Empire, under the leadership of Emperor Franz Joseph I and supported by Russian troops, suppressed the revolution by military force. The revolution was ultimately unsuccessful, and Hungary remained under Austrian control. [[2]]

3. Русско-иранская война (Russo-Persian War): The Russo-Persian War of 1826-1828 was a conflict between the Russian Empire and Persia (modern-day Iran). The war was primarily fought over territorial disputes in the Caucasus region. The Russian Empire, under the command of General Ivan Paskevich, achieved several victories and occupied significant parts of Persia. The war ended with the signing of the Treaty of Turkmenchay in 1828, which resulted in Persia ceding large territories to Russia and recognizing Russian influence in the region. [[3]]

4. Пекинский договор (Treaty of Beijing): The Treaty of Beijing, also known as the Convention of Peking, was signed on October 18, 1860, between the Qing Dynasty of China and the Russian Empire. The treaty followed the Second Opium War and the capture of Beijing by Anglo-French forces. The treaty settled territorial disputes between Russia and China, with Russia gaining significant territories in the Far East, including the Amur region and the Primorsky Krai. The treaty also established trade and diplomatic relations between the two countries. [[4]]

These events are significant in Russian history and had an impact on the geopolitical situation of the time. However, they are not directly related to the foreign policy of Nicholas I, who was known for his conservative and expansionist policies.
