The Seven Years' War

I do not like Frederick the Great of Prussia. I want his power to be reduced, so that he won't be a threat to my empire. So because of that sole reason, becauseI do not like Frederick of Prussia, I sided against Prussia and Great Britain in the Seven Years' War alongside France and Austria. Although I was afflicted by a serious illness that began with a fainting fit at Tsarskoe Selo in 1757, neither that or the fall of Bestuzhev interfered with my furious determination to see this horrible man crushed. The war had finally brought him to the edge of ruin, and he was despairing of any success at all (which, of course, brought me secret glee). I held together the shaky elements of the anti-Prussian alliance because of my unshakeable firmness and determination to DESTROY THIS MAN. I knew that this man must be reduced to the rank of Prince-Elector because if not, he would harm his neighbors in the future. I must protect the country of my birth, that my father died for! I have tried to subtly reconcile Great Britain and France, if only because then we could all be united against that stupid Prussia. However, this backfired a little, and only led to France wholeheartedly throwing everything they had into the war! I guess Louis was just a teeny bit jealous of me, I am so much better after all. However, even though we had been on the verge of winning, the serious illness that had been pursuing me all these years.. had finally caught up to me.

There's me looking amazing on that horse.
