Catherine the Great never visited Odesa. She was of course originally German, who got the top job in Russia by marriage followed by assassination. There's a gripping biography of her by Robert Massie https://t.co/f5eKSKG0iF — PolitiTweet.org

At the most intense moment of Catherine's love affair with Prince Potemkin, he accused her of unchastity. To defend herself, she wrote him a detailed account of every love affair in her life to that point. The account survived, which is why historians know so much about her. — PolitiTweet.org
