The show, like all Historical dramas, was part truth and part myth. Catherine's personality was actually far less ruthless than in that show. At least, when the fate of Russia wasn't at stake.
Didn't the historical Catherine kill Peter? In the show, The Great, he was not killed yet as of season 2.
She did, but not until after he had already been the Czar for six months.
Yeah, I see.
