Who was Ivan V's co-ruler?

  • Peter I

  • Alexander I

  • Nicholas II

  • Catherine the Great

Answer

Ivan V and his younger half-brother, Peter I (later known as Peter the Great), jointly ruled as co-tsars of Russia from 1682 to 1696. However, due to Ivan's poor health and lack of interest in governing, Peter I gradually assumed more power and became the de facto ruler. Ivan V passed away in 1696, leaving Peter I as the sole ruler of Russia.
