No invader from the west can comprehend the emptiness of the steppes, deal with the vast distances of Russia, or survive the merciless campaigns of "General Winter". Russia also has the advantage of time and space, should a war go badly. Russian soldiers may be rough and ready, but her generals are cunning commanders. There are potential allies and some, like the English, have very large treasuries. Napoleon has set himself up as the equal of the Tsar, and that is an implicit challenge. There may be incidental gains to be made in Poland and Prussian-dominated Germany, but the threat of the new French Empire is real. This is why Russia now contemplates war against France again. If Russia is to be seen as a major power in Europe, she must behave as a major power, or accept French domination of Europe. Now Alexander is beginning to realise that a French, or rather, Napoleonic hunger for victories will drag Russia into war once again. Paul had taken Russia to war against revolutionary France. Rumour has it that Tsar Alexander was complicit, at the very least, in his father's death. It is also a nation that is recovering from the assassination of the reforming Tsar Paul in 1801, a man who was too interested in reform to be left on the throne. Russia is a giant, if it can be mobilised to face the deadly danger to peace that is Napoleon Bonaparte.
