Tsarevich Alexei Petrovich of Russia (Russian: Алексей Петрович; 28 February 1690 – 26 June 1718) was a Russian crown prince, grand duke, and first son of Tsar Peter I, also known as Peter the Great, and Tsaritsa Consort Eudoxia Lopukhina. Despite his status as heir apparent, Tsarevich Alexei's life was characterized by conflict with his father, repeatedly thwarting Peter's plans to raise him as successor to the throne and continue his modernizing policies. This culminated in his brief defection to Austria, scandalizing the Russian government and public and leading to harsh reprisals against Alexei and his associates. Following his return to Russia, Alexei was arrested on his father's orders and died under interrogation, likely as a result of torture. Read more on Wikipedia
