Russia is absolutely terrified of Ivan the Terrible and he despises his own human name.
Russia was Novgorod when he was younger (Battle of Ice was fought between Novgorodians and the Teutonic Knights).
Ivan the Terrible had attacked Novgorod and it acted out on a massacre and left Novgorod crippled.
It was Ivan's lowest point and he was severely hurt by it.
Actually, this might just be the breaking point for his mentality that made him the way he is. Very twisted. (although he was beforehand)
