Smuta (English spelling)

Japanese: スムータ（英語表記）Smuta

In Russian, it means "Trouble," but as a historical term, it refers to the turmoil in Russia in the early 17th century, also called the "Time of Troubles (Smutnoe vremya)." The historiography of the Soviet Union has rejected the term and concept of "smuta," which was widespread before the 1917 revolution, and instead emphasizes the aspect of "foreign interference and peasant wars." In 1603, while the Boris Godunov government was busy suppressing the "Khlobko Uprising," a young man who called himself Dmitry, the son of Russian Tsar Ivan IV, appeared in Poland.

ロシア語で〈動乱〉の意であるが，歴史用語としては17世紀初頭のロシアの動乱をいい，〈動乱時代Smutnoe vremya〉とも呼ぶ。ソ連邦の歴史学は，1917年の革命前に普及していたこの〈スムータ〉という術語･概念を排し，〈外国干渉と農民戦争〉という側面を強調している。　ボリス･ゴドゥノフ政権が〈フロプコの蜂起〉鎮圧に忙殺されていた1603年，ポーランドにロシアの皇帝イワン4世の皇子ドミトリーと自称する青年が現れる。
