Anastasia, if you will be mine, I will protect you from the boyars. If you will be mine, I will raise you to the throne. If you will be mine, we will rule Russia together!

Not only the Germans are stumbling-blocks to our ambitions, but also you boyars. In opposing my campaigns in the Baltic, you are worse than the Germans and the Livonians. You are Russia's worst enemies.

I need the maritime towns, the Baltic towns. Riga. Revel. I need Narva. Once again the Rigans and the Hanseatics have intercepted the English ships. Once again they deprive me of lead, of sulfur, and my artillery of trained gunners! I shall use force to stop these treacherous neighbors from throttling our commerce.

Czar's Guard Aleksei Basmanov
Surround yourself with new men who have sprung from the people and who owe you everything. With them, forge about you an iron ring, a circle of spears pointing towards the enemy. Choose men who will renounce everything, who will deny father and mother to serve only the Tsar and the dictates of his will.

Czar Ivan IV
We shall need a strong and undivided State if we are going to crush those who oppose the unity of the Russian land. Only a State strong and unified within its frontiers can defend itself beyond them. Our native land is no more than a trunk whose limbs have been hacked off. The sources of our waterways and rivers, Volga, Dvina, Volkhov are ours, but the ports at their mouths are under foreign control. Our ancestral lands have been torn from us. That is why, this coronation day we are going to set about retaking occupied Russian territory.

Boyarina Efrosinia Staritskaya
To whom will you swear an oath of allegiance?
Prince Andrei Kurbsky
To Dmitri, the heir apparent. To Ivan's son.
Boyarina Efrosinia Staritskaya
And Anastasia! It's the widow's still-warm bed which fills your thoughts. You want to make her your mistress. Swear allegiance to Vladimir. Money doesn't buy men like you. They have to be offered a kingdom. With Vladimir on the throne it is you who will act as regent. He is worse than a child. He is moronic. You will be absolute master! Swear allegiance to Vladimir.

Czar Ivan IV
A Tsar can only rule if he holds the reins. A State without reins is as uncontrollable as a horse without a bridle. But he who ranges itself at the side of the Tsar will be rewarded. He will rejoice in the Tsar's bounty and the admiration of our soldiers.
