Abstract
The article presents a new look at the cultural and diplomatic significance of the Prut march of 1711 and its influence on the rise of the cultural trend of Pan-Slavism in the middle of the 19th century. The main reason is Peter's acceptance of the mantle "defender of the Balkan Christians" - a term from the diplomatic arsenal, which later influenced the development of the Russian imperial form of pan-Slavism. The purpose of the article is to provoke a new dialogue about the origin of this movement and about the great significance of the Great Northern War for Eastern European diplomacy.
