"The Debauched Empress" features young German princess Sophia marrying Peter, the son of the Russian emperor. The domineering empress wishes to improve the royal bloodline. Sophia dislikes her husband but loves Russia and its warriors. She dutifully gives birth to a son—questionable paternity—but no one seems to mind. After the old empress dies, Sophia orchestrates a coup with military aid, deposing Peter and becoming Empress Catherine.
