Pugachev was the son of a small landowner Don Cossack. He
was the leader of Pugachev rebellion on 1773 until 1774. This rebellion
happened at the same time when the Muslims came into confrontation with the
Russians. So, Pugachev’s forces mostly consisted of Muslims who wanted to fight
against the Russian emperor. However, Pugachev was captured in 1775 and he was
sent to Moscow where he was decapitated publicly.
