So in my TL the Hats' War ends with Russia taking Finland instead of returning much of it to Sweden and opting to have a relative become heir to the Swedish crown. And as Bestuzhev wanted I intend for Peter III to get some early ruler training as King of Sweden. But I wonder should I have Peter become Emperor of Russia, but without Catherine as his wife or should I have Empress Elisabeth overthrown by an Austrian? orchestrated coup and have Ivan VI return to power. And seeing as he is untouched clay I have a lot of options with him. But I want to use Peter III, because he was a good ruler (no matter what vitriol Catherine mass spread against him). So opinions? vote? comments?
