1864 CE to 1875 CE

Russia's State Bank is established in 1866, and the national currency is put on a firmer footing.

The Ministry of Finance supports railroad development, facilitating vital exports, but it is cautious and moderate in its foreign ventures.

The ministry will also found the Peasant Land Bank in 1882 to enable enterprising farmers to acquire more land.

The Ministry of the Interior, however, will counter this policy by establishing the Nobles' Land Bank in 1885 to forestall foreclosures of mortgages.
