The Russian Academy of Sciences was created in 1724 in St Petersburg. It was not only intended to coordinate and produce science, but also to aid in solutions to practical problems. Many foreign scientists were invited to participate, one of which was Joseph Nicholas De L'Isle, the younger brother of Guillaume De L'Isle, the royal geographer in Paris.
