In early November, Bolotnikov arrived, and Pashkov moved to Kotly.

Time Of Troubles
The Time of Troubles (russian: Смутное время, ), or Smuta (russian: Смута), was a period of political crisis during the Tsardom of Russia which began in 1598 with the death of Fyodor I (Fyodor Ivanovich, the last of the Rurik dynasty) and ended in 1613 with the accession of Michael I of the House of Romanov. It was a time of lawlessness and anarchy following the death of Fyodor I, a weak and possibly intellectually disabled ruler who died without an heir. His death ended the Rurik dynasty, leading to a violent succession crisis with numerous usurpers and false Dmitrys (imposters) claiming the title of tsar. Russia experienced the famine of 1601–03, which killed almost a third of the population, within three years of Fyodor's death. Russia was occupied by the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth during the Polish–Russian War (also known as the ''Dimitriads'') until it was expelled in 1612. It was one of the most turbulent and violent periods in Russian history. ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Khlopko Rebellion
The Khlopko Rebellion was an anti-feudal uprising in Russia of the peasant and servile masses, which was the result of the strengthening of serfdom and the great famine of 1601–1603 at the beginning of the Time of Troubles. Among the many robber detachments operating at that time, the largest, operating near Moscow itself, was the detachment of the chieftain, Khlopko Kosolap, by whose name the phenomenon was named. History The main part of the rebels was the kholops who fled from the estates due to the great famine of 1601–1603, as their masters refused to feed them, but hoped to claim their rights at them after the end of the famine.
