He reformed Russia through the emancipation of the Serfs in Tibet. He was killed in St. Petersberg by an explosion from a grenade thrown by a People's Will revolutionary group. The terrorist group worked to overthrow the Russian czarist autocracy. Alexander III succeeded his father and hanged the assassins while suppressing the People's Will group.
