Russia’s First Civil War: The Time of Troubles and the Founding of the Romanov Dynasty Rockstar Romance People all across America areThe Time of Troubles was a period of great upheaval in Russian history. It began when the ancient ruling dynasty died out in 1598 and Boris Godunov defeated rival boyars to become the tsar.
