Ending the Time of Troubles was Michael's primary foreign policy achievement. This period of political and economic instability in Russia from 1598 to 1613 was marked by widespread famine, social unrest, and foreign invasions. Michael's diplomacy and military campaigns restored stability, secured Russia's borders, and established a new dynasty, the Romanovs, who ruled Russia for over 300 years.
