Historical Perspective

This is an interesting article about a group of people I have never heard of before. The historical background was interesting and help set the information into perspective. One area that I feel would add depth to this historical background and help understand why some people have decided to follow the reforms by Catherine the Great and the 'Old Believers' did not was to know what these reforms were. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mattdimos (talk • contribs) 02:12, 2 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
