Yay! I've been eagerly awaiting this video. I've had a fascination with the Romanov family, Czar Nicholas II especially, since I was a child. I'm really looking forward to this 😊

For everyone involved in these videos, you are sincerely appreciated. God bless 👍🏾

Interesting to see that Nicholas and his wife were related to the family of Queen Victoria along not one, but two lineages:
1) Nicholas' mother Maria Feodorovna being the sister-in-law of King-Emperors Edward VII of Great Britain and Friedrich III of Germany, hence the aunt of their sons/successors
2) Alix of Hesse being the grand-daughter of Queen Victoria, through her mother Alice.

These decades before the revolution are a near-mythical age and I always enjoy learning more about it - a time of splendour, sharp contrasts and tensions that ended in an unforgiving war and a cataclysm of change (I think some of the people living in Russia at that time had clear premonitions or an understanding that some kind of terrible upheaval was coming)

I love Russian history, married a man who's great grandmother was from Odessa.

The best book anyone can read on the history of the Romanovs is by Simon Sebago Montefiore....you won't be disappointed! He's written many books on are all brilliant!

After watching the documentary, I believe that Tsar Nicholas was not very intelligent, which made him indecisive and weak. If he had accepted the offered parliamentary rule, Russia would been a different country and we would have a different world today. But that can be said about a thousand different things. Thank you for a good documentary. I learned a lot.

Been fascinated by the Czar since I read one of Danielle Steel’s novels since I was in high school. All knew “ the Czar was the emperor of Russia before the revolution” now I know more . Thnx

This reminds me of King Charles I
He was also offered to change to a monarchy with a parliament.
His refusal cost him the crown and his head.

[CharlesMorris-tp]

[rosecoloredtimes]

Ever since finding out my mother DNA is Russian/Serbian, I’ve been obsessed with Russian history

His biggest mistake was marrying Alix. Alexandra wasn't cut out to be empress. She was too shy and stubborn.
Nicolas II and Alexandra were incompetent and bad rulers but their children didn't deserved to died with their parents 😢.
