History
It was founded in March 1866 by local and military historians and government officials, with its charter approved on 23 May 1866 by Alexander II of Russia and stating its purpose as being "to contribute fully to the development of education in Russian national history". The Society received the highest approval of Alexander II and by his consent it promoted the development of civic education in Russia. On 24 November 1873 it was given the name the "Imperial Russian Historical Society."
In 2013, the Russian President Vladimir Putin charged the RHS to select the existing history textbooks of different publishers in order to build up a uniform teaching of the national history within all the Russian schools. Since the scholastic year 2014/2015, Russian teachers were forbidden to adopt history textbooks that hadn't pass the RHS preventive approval.[1]
