what gets me is ivan the terrible was actually called grozny in russian which is closer to formidable or awe inspiring than just terrible so even his scary nickname got lost in translation and hes still the most infamous one. the original was even worse
Ivan the Terrible kinda did a lot of shit too. Doubled the territory, introduced formal source of law, developed local governance... Not that he wasnt a batshit crazy mfer, especially closer to the end of his life, but a lot of his reputation comes from him pissing off nobility a lot.
Well I know this probably gonna be mentioned like a lot but... Wasnt Ivan the IV name technically Ivan the Grozny which was supposed to mean like awe inspiring, formidable, and/or powerful It was a translation issue that led to Ivan IV being named The Terrible
