About Feodor I Of Russia
- Fyodor I Ivanovich (Russian: ????? I ????????) or Feodor I Ioannovich (Russian: ?????? I ?????????); 31 May 1557 – 16 January (NS) 1598), also known as Feodor the Bellringer, (Russian: ?????? ???????) was the last Rurikid Tsar of Russia (1584–1598). Feodor's mother died when he was three, and he grew up in the shadow of his father, Ivan the Terrible.
- A pious man of retiring disposition, Feodor took little interest in politics, and the country was effectively administered in his name by Boris Godunov, the brother of his beloved wife Irina.
- His childless death left the Rurikid dynasty extinct, and spurred Russia's descent into the catastrophic Time of Troubles. In Russian documents, Feodor is sometimes called blessed (Russian: ?????????).
- He is also listed in the "Great Synaxaristes" of the Orthodox Church, with his feast day on January 7 (OS).
