    Alexander I was twenty-three years old when, following the deposition and assassination of his father, Emperor Paul, he ascended the Russian throne.


    Александер I был двадцать восемч лет когда, следующий свержение и предательское из его, император пол, тот всходл русский троно.

    Explaination: Since imperfective verb express a simple action in progress....Accusative because Russian throne is direct object..

    Please explain mistakes in detail or correct the above..Thank you!

    Александру I было двадцать три года, когда, после свержения и убийства его отца, императора Павла, он взошёл на русский престол.

    disposition means свержение exactly in the dictionary.

    Why is it свержения ? Is it because it is "feminine"? How would I know if it is? It does not say in the Russian dictionary.

    свержение is neuter. После свержения = after the disposition. После requires Genitive for the object. "свержения" is the Genitive case form of "свержение".
    "Россия для русских" - это неправильно. Остальные-то чем лучше?

    Строг был с сыном папа Павел,
    бил ремнём и в угол ставил.
    Вырос сын и сверг отца.
    Ламца-дрица-оп-ца-ца! (no translation)

    In reality, facts on Pavel's death is unknown.
