You never know what my mirror has in store for us, and today will be Super! When I started learning about our next rotten ruler, suddenly, a bright light fell from the sky and transformed me into a Super History Hero. The villain today is another rotten ruler, but this time he is from a country that is today still being ruled by a vyalaya sobaka: (flaccid dog.) This one ruled Russia from 1547 to his death in 1584, his name was Ivan, and he was literally known for how Terrible he was. Our mission for today is to discover all we can about Ivan and try to learn why Russia keeps being controlled by these rotten men.
