D. Modernization of Russia

Explanation:

Peter I was much different than the Russian rulers before him. Unlike his predecessors that were trying to keep the structure of the society as it is, Peter I didn't fancied that at all. He thought that Russia has been falling behind on cultural, social, economic, and political level behind the West, so his primary goal was to modernize Russia.

This mean that some social structure needed to be dismembered, and numerous others reshaped. Some local and regional political authorities were stripped of their power, and lot of Western cultural traits were enforced on the ordinary Russia citizen.

Peter I was a great admirer of the Western culture, but he was in love with the French culture, which was taken as basis for modernizing the Russian one.
