Years: 1605 - 1605
June
Fyodor is on June 20 strangled in his apartment, together with his mother.
Officially, he is declared to have been poisoned, but the Swedish diplomat Peter Petreius stated that the bodies, which had been on public display, showed traces of a violent struggle.
Although aged sixteen at most, Feodor was known to be physically strong and agile and apparently it took four men to overpower him.
Dmitriy makes his triumphal entry into Moscow.
