Peter II Alekseyevich (23 October [O.S. 12 October] 1715 – 30 January [O.S. 19 January] 1730) was the Emperor of Russia from 1727 until his death in 1730. He was the only son of Tsarevich Alexei Petrovich (son of Peter the Great "Peter I Emperor of Russia" by his first consort Eudoxia Lopukhina) and Princess Charlotte.
With Peter's death, the direct male line of the Romanov Dynasty ended. He was succeeded by Anna Ivanovna, daughter of Peter the Great's half-brother and co-ruler, Ivan V.
