The End of the Romanov Dynasty
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 20 ส.ค. 2024
- On March the 2nd, 1917, two representatives of the Duma, arrived in Pskov to receive Nicholas’ II abdication. That was the end of the Romanov Dynasty. The video follows the events from the February Revolution 1917 until the murder of the Romanov family and the discovery of their remains, in 1991.
One of the main features of this video is the film with V. Shulgin, one of the two Duma members who met Tsar Nicholas II and received from him his abdication statement. Shulgin related the story in 1957, after Stalin’s death, in a film that was shot in the very same train compartment where they met Nicholas II and received his abdication.
This video is produced as part of the project for the book "The Romanov Royal Martyrs”, which is an impressive 512-page book, featuring nearly 200 black & white photographs, and a 56-page photo insert of more than 80 high-quality images, colorized by the acclaimed Russian artist Olga Shirnina (Klimbim) and appearing here in print for the first time.

These informative and historically accurate videos are unbelievably well done. While heartbreaking, to know the horrific fate that awaited the Romanov family, their true story indeed, needs to be told. This book has been one of the most articulate and accurately written stories ever of their reign and their lives. The artistic photography is breathtaking. Our family will treasure this book. If you have not purchased a copy...purchase it now!!!!!!
Thank you so much for your kind and positive feedback! We are humbled and honored by your words!! Best wishes!
@Tony. O'Brien My friend, the extensive and scrupulous investigation for Nicolas and Alexandra "wrongdoings" was immediately carried by the provisional government and found absolutely nothing of what was circulating against him, the Tsarina, and his people.
The act of the murder of Nicolas, Alexandra, his children, and servants was nothing but a brutal act by impure, cruel, self-called
rulers, who drenched the whole land in blood and tears.

@@RomanovRoyalMartyrs hi! What's the title of the book?
@@DimpBac hello! Thanks for writing! Here's the official website of the book. You can find everything you need here and, if you decide to do so, you can place an order: www.romanovs.eu
@Αντίνοος
You can find more on the subject on the book official site (www.romanovs.eu) and certainly a detail in the book itself; PART ΙI: In the Path of Blood, CHAPTER 5 - CAPTIVITY
The inquiry was immediately carried by the provisional government Minister of justice Kerensky while the family was in captivity in Tsarskoye Selo.
"The investigation lasted eighteen days. The committee appointed by the
Provisional Government responsible for examining all the archives that
were kept at the palace, which registered all the activities of the emperor
during his reign, could not find any incriminating evidence. Not a single
trace of the things his enemies accused him of could be found in Nicholas’
records. He was found completely innocent and absolutely faithful in his
duty to his country and his people"
When Kerensky realized that Nicolas and Alexandra were falsely accused, he did try to provide for the safety of the family or even to ship them out of the country.
Little that he (Kerensky) knew that in a few months to come, he would be chased off the country by the Bolsheviks...
I have been following and researching the history of this family since the age of 12 when I was introduced to the book, Nicholas and Alexandra. I found that the lives of this family were so beautifully written about and started my long journey towards finding out more about them and their tragic ending in a basement of a run down mansion. I am 71 now and I still look for books and stories covering the lives of the duchesses and the last
tsarevich. They truly were the personification of a close knit, loving family and I hope their story will continue to be told to future generations and hopefully be an inspiration to families about what a true loving family should be.
I only discovered them and their story nearly 2 years ago and it’s safe to say there’s so many young people who are learning of them and spreading the unfortunate story but also what they were like as people which I’m glad that they aren’t becoming a lost story
Melania Trump is from this family!
Being Scottish we are taught a great deal of British Royal history in school from a young age, it was always topic I looked forward to, as time went on we began learning about the royal histories of other countries and how most houses can be traced in one way or another to queen Victoria. It was during one of these lessons I first began to learn about the Romanovs. One particular lesson we learned about what had happened to the family. I sat at my tiny desk sobbing my eyes out, I got so upset my mother was called to come and take me home because the teacher couldn’t console me, i just felt so heartbroken for them 😔 I was 10 years old 😔 Thankfully this did not stop my love of history!
Imagine how creeped out the teacher must have been by such a bizarre display...
@@bewilderedbrit8928 Not at all, she was really sweet but yeah I’m sure she didn’t have this problem in her class very often 😆
You were taught about such brutal murders at 10 years. Did they also teach you about the atrocities committed by the British empire?
Son was a spoiled and a jerk
It is because you understand what Marxism could do to all ppls:
"One should begin with a socialist revolution to liquidate the primitive rubbish of peoples such as Basques, Bretons, Scottish Highlanders ..." - Marx
Honestly Nicholas should not have named any heir. I think he still didn't get that it wasn't just him they wanted to get rid of but Tsarist rule all together. Michael knew what would likely happen to him if he tried to become Tsar. He did the only smart thing he could do and rejected the throne. Nicholas thought he would be allowed to become a farmer and just fade into history with his family he didn't understand until later that that was never going to happen. Its just sad how clueless he really was and I don't think it's all his fault I think he was kept largely in the dark about the state of the country by those around him . Nicholas I think was generally a good man and he and his wife would have been happiest just being a family. They were terrible rulers who were just not prepared for the roles. Who knows what could have been if Nicholas had abdicated far sooner and retired somewhere with his family to live a quiet life. Heartbreaking story all around .
Nicholas did not name an heir. According to the Fundamental Laws of Russia at the time, after Nicholas abdicated for himself and his son, his brother Michael was automatically next in line to the throne. That is how hereditary monarchy works. Every member of the Romanov Dynasty had their place in the line of succession. The goals of the Revolutionaries were varied. Not all wanted to do away with the monarchy. Many aimed for a constitutional monarchy, like England's. The members of the Provisional Government were all expecting Nicholas' son Alexis to be the next tsar (under a regency, of course), and were taken aback by Nicholas abdicating for his son, too. It was only then that they took a harder line. It's not mentioned in the video, but when the members of the Provisional Government met with Grand Duke Michael (technically Tsar Michael II the moment Nicholas abdicated, and he had been proclaimed as such in some towns and in some army units), despite many of them being ardent monarchists, they decided to present a united front and gave him the following ultimatum: either renounce the throne, or they would all resign and he'd be left without a government.
Nicholas was not kept largely in the dark. Many people (even within his own family) warned him about what was happening, and he read police and government reports of unrest. Unfortunately, he had a knack for making bad decisions....and for being under his wife's thumb, and she truly was delusional about the true state of affairs (even though people tried to warn her, too).
Lenin was a manipulative, cruel, arrogant, dismissive, calculating, unwaveringly uncaring, all the opposite of Tsar Nicholas. And this only proved correct with not only the murder of the Romanovs, but of subsequent Russians under Soviet rule. Thankfully the Romanovs’ story is being richly retold with fascination and sadness today.
Not only that. Lenin was a male prostitute in Vienna. As he was so compromised, he got employed by foreign agencies(you can imagine which) to travel to Russia in an armored train with more than 300kg(or 3 tones, I'm not sure) in gold, from Switzerland to Moscow(without stopping anywhere) in order to start a revolution. Refusal from all European royal countries to give them asylum also explains the background of the whole endeavor.
True
The Tsar was an anti semitic despot who thought he was sent by God to rule over others. A very nasty man.
Lenin and his comrades were cruel, greedy and godless men. Russia lived under a cloud of ruthlessness and bloodshed. No one was safe from the Soviets no matter whom they were.
Historical life of the last Romanov is fascinating and at the same time tragic
This is such a well done documentary. Even the narrator’s voice is soothing, yet professional and makes it easier to process the information being delivered. Bravo to your team!
Glad you enjoyed it! We have many more videos on our channel that we trust you will find interesting. Have you been able to watch any more of them yet? Best wishes!
@@RomanovRoyalMartyrs Yes, I have seen some of your other videos. They are as compelling as this one. Best wishes to you, as well!
@@Tempest78 thank you so much! We are very happy to have you aboard! Best wishes!
Their story is so sad, cruel and unfair. It brings tears to my eyes. You have done a remarkable effort in bringing their story forward and into the light. RIP their souls to a better place
Thank you SO much, Kim! It means the world to us to know that our work is met with interest! Have you watched any other of our videos? And have you read our book, which is the peak of our project? Best wishes!
They lived rich and powerful before they were alive. It is strange that you, a poor person, feel sympathy for them.
It is sad and cruel, especially the way it was handled, but the Romanovs causes it on themselves. The killing of the grand duchesses was uncalled for. They killed Alexi bc he was the heir apparent while Alix played a huge hand in the downfall of the monarchy by listening to Rasputin. The biggest mistake Nicholas made was leaving Alix in charge when he went to the front line like he was some kind of medieval king. She ran the country into the ground by following Rasputin’s every word. A man with zero military experience should never have been at the front line. He did nothing anyway minus stand in the way. That was another of Rasputin’s ideas.
I agree. I like this channel a lot!! Can’t get enough of their videos!
@@joseeduardotschen9186 thank you so much for your kind words! Have you had the chance to explore our book's website yet? There is an enormous amount of additional materials there. Here's the link: www.romanovs.eu
Notice how, in the first section of historic footage (showing the Tsar and his children at the Army Headquarters), when the party breaks up after the photographs have been taken, the participants fall naturally into line and begin to move away, in accordance with protocol: the Tsar with the Tsesarevitch, Grand Duchess Olga with Grand Duchess Tatiana (the ‘Big Pair’) and Grand Duchess Maria with Grand Duchess Anastasia (the ‘Little Pair’). If you look at how it happens, you will see how naturally this ‘pairing-off’ occurs - done by people who have behaved this way all their lives, to whom this comes as second nature. Protocol.
WOW, great eye and understanding-- oh wow... thank you for this.... so subtle but powerful....
Gorgeous pictures hideous fatel.
That is how the proceeded into to cellar to be shot.
Yes, what's your point.
@@2121beastmode The point is as other respondents have pointed out: protocol. The formal photo-session may now be over, and the members of the Imperial Family may now be moving away from the camera, but they still observe protocol in what they do and in how they align themselves with each other: (1) Tsar and Tsesarevitch - ruler and heir, (2) GD Olga and GD Tatiana - elder daughters, and (3) GD Maria and GD Anastasia - younger daughters. It's all in the protocol of rank and seniority.
This documentary is incredibly done!
Its historically accurate and the narrator has a soothing voice that makes the horribly tragic information that she's delivering bearable to the ears. Bravo!
RIP ROMANOVS!
So glad you liked it! This video is also perfectly done. We'd like to hear what you think: th-cam.com/video/NEHNpqydBbo/w-d-xo.html
@@RomanovRoyalMartyrs
Can you put subtitles in Spanish? I like the history of the Romanovs, but I don't understand English.
I felt like crying looking at the expressions in their eyes as they sat for the portrait.. As if they all knew what was coming.. The dismemberment of the already dead bodies tops all the cruelty in the world.. Whatever did they do to be so treated..!!!
They may have known. There’s a sad story about this mystic monk (I think named Adam?) who in 1808 (or thereabouts) left a sealed envelope for the Emperor to open in 1908. The family was expecting wonderful prophecies and was joyful on the way to open the envelope; they were crestfallen and morose after they read it.
@@oledocfarmer ..I do recall a note that was left under the reign of Paul 1, son of Catherine 11, or The Great. Paul was murdered six years into his reign because he had taken away some of the privilages of the nobles and was working tirelessly to undo all the liberal laws instituted by his mother Catherine.
They did all that ISIS did to their fellow countrymen .
It's just natural to feel for exploiter than exploited. Because human understanding call this Divine rule.
Nothing matters in the end. Exploiters deserve Hell on Earth just like those Romanovs, luxurying off of people's blood.
It's time Russia deals with it past and takes down all Lenin monuments and buries Lenin in an unmarked grave. And rename everything named after commies
Ironic how people before are tired of dynasties yet now Russia is again under a one-man rule. Truly history repeats itself.
That is ironic.
And of course after 1917 it was pure terror
Russia is doing better now than ever by far, while other countries are falling in quality of life…
@nikolaihalliday9807 yeah I didn't even understand her comment. No one is starving under Putins rule.
The "Revolution" was paid for by Wall St. money-Jacob Schiff>$20 million to Trotsky who then purchased an army that stormed the capital. We were lied to about the proletariats.
Wow, in spite of terrifying events that kid was still willing to stand up. In addition, even being sick with hemophilia it still took a few tries to kill him off with bullets. Wonder what kind of Tsar he would have been
The reason the bullets bounced off him was because he had so many diamonds and jewels sewed into his undergarments that he was effectively wearing a bulletproof vest.
A single stone would have fed 00s of children who starved every day in Tsarist Russia of hunger and poverty because everything they produced was taken as taxation to fund the Tsars greed nad excess. THAT is the type of Tsars he would have been. A mass killing Tyrant, like every other Tsar.
@@sisyphusvasilias3943 AMEN!!
Next the rich will help feed there people
I'm glad
And so they replaced the Romanovs with other mass killing tyrants. Futile!
This story is so sad, imagine being one of them.Also, I have seen a video of all the kids playing, they were so sweet
Utterly fantastic. Im drawn into these times like a passion ive never had before.
So intriguing. I love it.

I am absolutely fascinated with all of the photos...thank you Eastman Kodak...for all these great photos and I often put myself in these photos and think of how I would of felt.
Such a sad story! This world! Beautiful family! Your heart can't help but go out to them! ❤️
It's impossible to look at this cruelty and godlessness without tears.
May God blessed Romanov's beautiful family! 🙏☦💔
Amen!
The cruelty of what? The people of Russia who were starving to death?
Or the fact that the people were sick of starving to death and killed the monarchy in that country for allowing it to happen?
Tell me what makes you sad? What are you feeling sad about?

As a one , whose two fore grandfathers got killed by czar' s army in ww1, i get very heart -broken whenever i remember killing of romanov family , especially female members and 14 year old boy of the family
Btw , the semavour that i inherited from my grandmother still bears seal of russian czardom
Wonderful comment! Thank you so much for sharing! Here's a recommendation for another video here on our channel: th-cam.com/video/NEHNpqydBbo/w-d-xo.html
What a beautiful family. Truly heart breaking.
I don't know why I never learned about this family's story-history but I'm happy that I am now. Your videos are an excellent educational tool for those with new or renewed interest!
Because you are human, humans are curious.
This is an old documentary
They have found Alexei and Maria in a grave approx: 230 feet away
And I watched it wonderful beautiful ceremony where they finally laid them to rest in a place of honour
Back in 2007.
I will never understand why they had to kill the children so sad 😭
According to the Bolshevik Sverdlov, he and Lenin decided that it was necessary to kill “the Royals” lest they serve as a rallying point for the Whites during the civil war. In truth, the Whites also despised the monarchy and would never have backed them.
They were rich didn't want to help the poor
possible is not dead ewrifing .
Im not speak English:)
Sorry .Romanov family Rosja end Poland !
Just like the mafia kill the sons so they won’t avenge them
It was important because had they lived, White army would have an incentive, the spirit to continue the civil war.
What happened to the Romanov family is horrific, cruel and sad. I look forward to reading The Romanov Royal Martyrs. I have enjoyed reading about the Romanov history. History has always been a favorite of mine.
The martyrs were the impoverished press-ganged into the army for 25 years and never seen again! These were vile despotic inhumane parasites!
Thank you ,you all whom made also invested their hearts and souls into all the work in putting all of these short documentary and beautiful pictures,also a brilliant Book ,God Bless you all for keep there stories alive . fr Canada 🇨🇦 P.E.I..
I love the Romanovs may they rest in peace
Awful what happed to the Romanovs anf there family.
They are here in spirit now to help us. The evil that would only grow-- has. How did the IP manage lockdown? Oh, sry it was called house arrest. Tsarskoe Selo -- Sarscov2. Version 2
Bless them. So awful their fate.
I love them to, the czar was a kind man'' but he should have been more forceful with his wife, and listened to the people more, not hide away, anyway their gone, may their souls rest in peace!!! 🐕🐕🐕🐕
Amen. I read everything about the Romanovs. Really sad.
Ich liebe und verehre die Kaiserliche Familie Romanow sehr.Es war eine glueckliche Familie deren Leben sehr tragisch endete.
Moege die Familie Romanow in ewigen Frieden ruhen !
Using the word 'liquidate' to describe murder is disgusting.
This is a short clip from the actual documentary on TH-cam called The Last Czar. It’s a 3 part documentary
Thanks for the upload!
one of the best documentaries I've seen on TH-cam. I hope to read the book soon!
I hated how I was given a false hope by the rumors that Anastasia survived, and hid and got old here in our country, the Philippines. Many believed the rumor and everyone was fascinated by the thought. When the rumor spread, I got skeptical and did my own research. Since then, I am so heartbroken that I could not even rewatch the animated film Anastasia. How cruel this world can be.
Always believe your instincts - Anastasia did survive but she was betrayed yet again by the powers that be - Dont always believe what you are told to believe
@@williamf4544 Her body was found with the other Romanovs and is now entombed in the cathedral in St. Petersburg. Don't believe ridiculous conspiracy theories.
What a romantic couple this Nicholas and Alexandra.
Truly ✨🌞
Yeah but it showed why most royal marriages arent made because of love.
Maybe, but his love for her, with her neurotic mood swings and irrational political decisions got them all killed. I really believe that. She was a silly bitch and he unfortunately listened to her! She was borderline abusive to Nicolas and the children with her emotional blackmail and her cheeky English manner.
Evils
YES BEAUTIFUL ♥️
Amazing to me that this story has remained largely unknown in western civilization.
The tragedy of the time was a culmination of 300 years of Tsarist rule. The world over the days of "the king is ordained by God and therefore he is God" were coming to an end. The more ruthless the ruler, the more ruthless the opponents
Amazingly well historically informative and accurate three part documentary series on the Romananov dynasty of Tscar Nicholas and the murder of the whole family. Thank you for these most remarkable documentaries, with increased information being retold with such great videos and thoroughness. Such a sad and horrendous ending to the dynasty. 😢 I had no idea how scheming and cruel Lenin really was when it came to the murder of the Romanov family, especially the children. 17:45
15:16 he really loves his family.
I truly believe they were good people. Children so young and hatred took their lives. You can't help but feel for them.
To be an Emperor at the wrong time...A good kind man who was a Good Father & Husnabd but not a Successful Ruler......heartbreakingly sad & such AN UNNECESSARY TRAGIC END. Pray their souls rest in peace.
Unfortunately, this is exactly what more than a hundred years of Western history, due to many complicated factors, has led people to believe. However, the truth is quite far from that. In our recently published book, we have presented the real dimensions of Tsar Nicholas' reign, based solely on Russian sources and archival documents, which have never been published in English before. The book, thus, puts to rest many of the negative myths, held for more than a century, and rehashed over and over again in the last 50 years by so many so-called Western experts, who have basically copied and pasted what they found in books written before them based on false and foul information, looking to fit (again) a complicated agenda.
We have published here a few videos as well, that give the truth through the proper perspective. For example, the British renowned Cambridge professor Dominic Lieven, in just a few minutes gives a unique summary of Tsar Nicholas' reign. Use this link to watch it, it's only approx. 5 minutes (link takes you straight to the point of reference): th-cam.com/video/Ai_NysgnT3I/w-d-xo.html
Additionally, you can read the following (excerpt from Sir Winston Churchill's, The World Crisis 1916-1918, Vol. 3, p. 224), which gives yet another objective evaluation of Tsar Nicholas' reign:
"... the brunt of supreme decisions centered upon him [Tsar Nicholas II]. At the summit where all problems are reduced to Yea or Nay, where events transcend the faculties of man and where all is inscrutable, he had to give the answers. His was the function of the compass needle. War or no war? Advance or retreat? Right or left? Democratise or hold firm? Quit or persevere? These were the battlefields of Nicholas II. Why should he reap no honor from them? The devoted onset of the Russian armies which saved Paris in 1914; the mastered agony of the munition-less retreat; the slowly regathered forces; the victories of Brusilov; the Russian entry upon the campaign of 1917, unconquered, stronger than ever; has he no share in these? In spite of errors vast and terrible, the regime he personified, over which he presided, to which his personal character gave the vital spark, had at this moment won the war for Russia.
“He is about to be struck down. A dark hand, gloved at first in folly, now intervenes. Exit Tsar. Deliver him and all he loved to wounds and death. Belittle his efforts, asperse his conduct, insult his memory; but pause then to tell us who else was found capable. Who or what could guide the Russian state? Men gifted and daring; men ambitious and fierce, spirits audacious and commanding-of these there were no lack. But none could answer the few plain questions on which the life and fame of Russia turned.”
Thank you for your comment here. We appreciate your interaction with our project. Best wishes!
It didn't help when the Empress said,'the Russian people only respond to the whip'!! 'They will only respect brutality'. Trying to convince the Czar he needed to be merciless with his Russian subjects.
The way the family was murdered... truly tragic
Beautiful family that faced a savage ending. How cruel.
Paz y descanso eterno para la Familia Romanov ♡ 🌹
Magnifique famille que celle formée par le Tsar Nicolas II, la Tsarine Alexandra et leurs cinq enfants.
Aujourd'hui le monde entier la pleure. Néanmoins, force est de constater que celles et ceux qui versent des larmes pour eux, sont leurs véritables alliés. Et ce ne sont pas toujours celles et ceux que l'on croit. Les grands de ce monde, à leur époque n'ont pas bougé le petit doigt pour leur venir en aide, pour les sauver. Et pourtant ils faisaient partie "des leurs", de "leurs familles" respectives. Familles degré ZÉRO. Non, les seuls fautifs et criminels n'ont pas été que les bolcheviques. Les responsables ont surtout fait partie de leur entourage restreint et plus large dans le cercle infernal de la parenté. Personne. PERSONNE dans toute l'Europe n'a voulu leur tendre la main du Coeur. Car justement, du Coeur, ils n'en avaient pas. Ils avaient beau partager le "même" sang, leur nature était profondément différente. Nicolas II, son épouse et leurs enfants les regardaient, sans rien dire, sans rien réclamer, car on ne force pas l'Amour.
Ce qui s'est passé à Ekaterinbourg est le funeste résultat de l'Indifférence, de la lâcheté, du calcul et de la jalousie de celles et ceux qui auraient pu, qui auraient dû les sauver.
Gloire au Tsar, à la Tsarine, aux Grandes Duchesses, au Tsarévitch et aux Fidèles et Loyaux des derniers instants. Et Paix aux femmes et hommes de bonne volonté ✨✨✨💖✨✨🙏✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨
I knew Vasili Shulgin's son very well in the 1980s and 1990s. He was the Russian choir director in our church in the US .He escaped to the US after WW 2 and lived in hiding but we knew who he was and who his father was . He told us about this film featuring his father that you see in this video that was made in the Soviet Union in 1957. I watched it in the 1990s. He told us that the Soviets forced his father to make this film after he was released from the gulag prisons in the 1950s and it was full of propaganda and lies
I could feel my heart breaking for this beautiful family. There are no words to express my heart felt Thank you to the creators of this film and the careful details presented of the perils and untimely death that the Royal Romanovs family had to endure.
No matter what,these people didn't deserve such brutality
You mean only poor, homeless people deserve brutality of hunger and state violence.
Very good documentary love it
Glad you enjoyed it!
Even in great despair they found beauty in their days. Such courage and faith. They even forgave them and asked for no revenge. What lennin did was take revenge for his brother. Peace can only be found in forgiveness. RIP ROYAL FAMILY.🌹💞 THANK YOU FOR THE TRUTH. GOD BLESS💝💜💙💞
You are always so welcome, Laurie! Thanks for following us so devotedly! We are humbled!
Im watching these to help explain to my grandaughter about the history of paternal grandparents and also to understand the orthodox church as she is a member of the Ukrainian orthodox and my son is a member of the Greek Orthodox like his dad .
Imagine how threatened they were to kill the imperial family. They could have just let them flee, but no they had to be executioners of the most vile manner. Sad. Sad!
They killed them instead of letting them escape bc the Soviets knew the Romanovs would have come back with a military made up of many countries. Nicholas and the Romanovs in general would have always been thorn in the side of the Soviets. They didn’t kill them for no reason but to keep them from coming back by trying to take back over.
Yes, give the imperial family a dose of their own executing medicine. You act like they were peaceful little angels. The Czar personally made decisions to murder hundreds of thousands and failed to make decisions that resulted in the deaths of hundreds of thousands more. Give me a fuckin break.
@@Janellabelle What about the 3 million men, women, and even children whom Stalin murdered in his so called, "purges?". What were the children's crime that they deserved death?
@@Aristonika9999 surely, fascism and communism go hand in hand. Neither is worse than the other.
Easy to say where you're comfortable at home, with a full stomach and enjoying the life in a democracy. You maybe thought differently if you were starving and suffering.

I have watched this documentary multiple times and my heart breaks 💔 ieven more every time I see it. Anytime there's a revolution there is suffering for decades to follow. Here in America we have now had that revolution. Absolutely the same playbook: looting, tearing down statues, anarchy chaos and mayhem. And now yet we have people to be executed. Evil in the human race is the samte throughout the history of the world. This documentary is a lesson to be learned. Innocent people were sacrificed. 😔

Love and Marriage made in Heaven (spiritual )but fraught with chaos and crisis ( mortal world ) The spiritual and mortal worlds cant go hand in hand to led a perfect life. So heart wrenching . Cant help crying for these beautiful family who didnt chose to be born royals
I have always felt bad for this family.
Beautifully done, but was this pre-2007 discovery of Alexei and his sister?
Hi! Thanks for watching. Yes, this is an old production which was edited for our project and it presents new materials (images, audios, and videos).
Such a sad story brings tears to my eyes . Remarkable video . God bless this martyr family.🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
It always breaks my heart for the Romanovs. So sad and tragic.
Im confused. What did the royal family actually do to make the people mad? The people made it seem like they were monsters. The family just seemed a bit out of touch at times, but truthfully I have heard of far worse leaders that suffered less.
It's such a complicated chapter in world history. But, if you are really interested in the truth about the life and death of the last Romanov family, as well as to what really took place in Russian during that turbulent era, then we highly recommend our book, which offers previously unpublished materials strictly from primary and archival sources. Our book brings to light a multitude of unknown and unrevealed facts, which evince that many truths remain silenced or distorted to this day. Such are:
• The achievements and great reforms of Tsar Nicholas' reign.
• The events of the 1905 revolution and Bloody Sunday.
• Russia’s and Tsar Nicholas’ involvement in WW1.
• The plots and conspiracies to overthrow Tsar Nicholas from his throne.
• The myth of the “Bread Revolution” and the truth about the February 1917 coup.

In the pages of the book, the eye of the reader’s mind will be apprised of the portraits of the Romanov family's psyche, depicted with the colors of their very own words from the personal writings of the family and of those who lived very close to them.
People were starving, a crazy wizard guy had (supposedly) massive sway over the government (supposedly) they lost a war against japan and we’re losing a war against Germany, his wife was German, the crazy wizard guy was (supposedly) having an affair with the tsar’s wife (supposedly) the tsar refused to give up any power, Nicholas himself was in charge of the armed forces for some time and that means it was him losing all the battles, Bloody Sunday, the deaths at his coronation (those last two were indirect but were both put on him).
That’s about it
The last one gave him the nickname “Nicholas the Bloody”
Nicolas ‘ sister, Olga survived. There are still Romanovs today.
Thanks for watching, Kelly! We recommend this video, as well: th-cam.com/video/IC-D1dZKoCI/w-d-xo.html
Both of his sisters survived
So did nieces and nephews
Lies
Alexei survived!
I find it remarkable that the correspondence between family members was in English.
I think it’s horrible what happened to them abdicate yes but killing them it was wrongfully murders so sad 😭
Czar Nicholas and Czarina Alexandra were very much in love. Czar Nicholas was not ready to be Czar. He just needed to be an artist. I am so so sad about this Dynasty.
There was another that wanted to be an artist, he was rejected so he started a political career in Germany and became chancellor for three months, then he became the leader!
Always go for your dreams kids!
Um so happy that i got a new video on my fvrt topic!
Hi there! Have you watched any other videos on our channel? We have many more you'd surely love!
So incredibly sad
Truly so! We recommend this video as well: th-cam.com/video/DD_xdwbV8-I/w-d-xo.html
I am going to purchase some of these, they are amazing. My heart always wants this to all end with them in England or France. Uh, how this bothers me. I have studied these people since I was in Graduate school, years ago... My heart is just--ugh, as this did not have to happen. There were many paths to being free, and they all escaped them. Thank you again, and I am going to purchase some.....Blessings to you...One day I will tell you about my days in Moscow in the early 1990's.... It was special, and working at the Hermitage was amazing...
Thank you so much! We'd be thrilled to hear about your time in Moscow! Please, do share! As for our book, were you able to find our online store? Best wishes! 🌷
Finally the truth about this Greatest Royal Family is being depicted from the ruins ......that was left of them .
Thanks for watching!
Tsar nicholas looks so kind and a happy person so gentle person. So sad they treated like that. I hope that they with god now. Amen🙏💖
They had $300 billion in today’s money whilst most in their country starved. He was cousin to Germany’s Kaiser Wilhelm II and Britain’s King George IV. WW1 was a family tiff which killed 20 million and led to WW2 which killed a further 75 million people. But he had a kind face. 😊
@@jayellucaz absolutely. As I often say at least Marie Antoinette is rumoured to have said let them eat cake. Nicholas and Alexandra in particular said let them starve. And they did.
Perhaps you should be careful to not judge books by their covers. The little girls didnt deserve this, but Nick had it coming 110%.
@@Janellabelle yet you do. Interesting.
@@unclenelvis I do what? Judge books by their covers? How so? Nicholas the 2nd made some horrible horrible decisions that resulted in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of his citizens. I've read this in books-- in between the covers. His children did not have that power yet, therefore I think they should have not been executed for the sins of the father. Any questions?
I guess inevitable fate waited for Romanov Royals. Almost 300+ years of dynastic rule must come to an end due to ever-changing events taking place; to some extent, widespread poverty was a major cause of the downfall of Romanov. How the king can live ostentatiously while their subject lives practically an abject poverty?
Yes. Exactly!! Thank you 💕
The family of Nicholas lived quite simply except for when court occasions demanded pomp and circumstance. They preferred the country estate where they dressed simply and lived pretty modestly. However, it seems the elite class in general had become quite debauched.
@@bordeauxhouse The decadence of St Petersburg elite society made Empress Alexandra withdraw from society. She wasn’t popular with them as she was religious and modest.
Maria is the most beautiful daughter of tzar. May they RIP in God hands now.
At first, I thought the historical documents written by Czarina Alexandra were faked for this recording (as they were written in English). Evidently not; apparently, the Russian royal family spoke English and German (or French) in their daily lives. While they knew Russian, it was not the language of their writings, thoughts, or daily conversations.. (I'm sure the Russian people didn't know at the time, but it probably didn't help their whole image of being distant, removed rulers of the Russian people).
she was originally german, lol
@AL S Born in Germany, she was Half German, Half English so you are Half correct 🤣🤣🥓😊
Scary to think all this happened when some of our Granparents were alive - My Granparents on my mums side would have been in their late teens and my Granparents on my fathers side would have been in their twenties
Very well directed. Very informative
Unfortunately, the Tsar was out of touch with his starving people much like the King and Queen of France.
Communism doesn't need starving people to take a foothold. Case in point: USA.
I don't aggree, read the book you will see what a good man and Tsar Nicholas 11 was . There has been such a deluge of Communist propaganda over the years , that many people just regurgitate it as if its fact
The Tsar seemed like a kind man.

@@RomanovRoyalMartyrs I am definitely ordering that. Thank you so much. I've always been fascinated with the Romanovs.
@@trawlins396 thanks! Let us know about your impressions when you read it! Best wishes!
Really? So why his people was suffering so much?
@@booliev3275 because they were the serfs.
Excellent. A must watch
That piano at the end is such a great way to a nostalgic/ beautiful end... Anyone knows the name of the song?
It was surprising to me that Alexandra wrote her letter to her Russian husband in English (see letter at 6 minutes). but letter read is partly shown, and is in English. That seems an anomaly but others here may be able to correct me. What a powerful and sad story it is, important to know too.
Alexandra spent time in England with her grandmother Queen Victoria. She spoke English, German, French, and Russian. She was educated by English tutors. She preferred writing her letters in English. Nicholas also spoke several languages and wrote in English as well as Russian.
@@SymphonyBrahms wasn’t Nicholas also Victoria’s grandchild like Alexandra? 51:41 First cousins marrying each other. Charles and Diana wer 51 third cousins twice removed.They at least created some distance. They were afraid of the big H that befell the Romanovs, Hemophilia. One hundred years later we are seeing the disintegration and crumbling of the English Royalty. What took so long? Like the title reads “Much ado about nothing” Charles and Camilla, King and Queen of irrelevance
@@SymphonyBrahms Alexandra didn't speak or write Russian as easily as English. She and Tsar Nicholas both could speak English and French so had the choice of languages in which to communicate. Since French was the official language of courts and diplomacy, perhaps English felt more informal and intimate to the couple.
@@bordeauxhouseShe only learned to speak French after she came to Russia.
Its amazing how the Tsar's Mother got away and escaped.
She was living in the Crimea on the Black Sea. She and the tsar's two sisters escaped on a British warship. And a lucky thing, too. The Bolsheviks were close to capturing them.
I love history, whether Russian, English or Scottish. You can find bloody battles everywhere, brothers and their sons who murdered each other or were murdered to get the crown and much more.
But the murder of the Tsar's family was absolutely superfluous and hard to beat in terms of cruelty. A real tragedy
The way the Tsar & his family met their end was appalling. They were followed by a horrific regime & I’m glad that too has been consigned to history. But the Tsar & his wife aren’t romantic heroes or a noble tragedy. The Russian empire was a cruel, oppressive, vindictive, feudal regime where the poorest 95% of the population lived like slaves, terrorised & often exiled by a terrifying secret police. Nicholas II was incompetent, self-absorbed & dictatorial. His only way of diverting blame from his own hapless rule was either war, an anti-Jewish pogrom or simply to open fire on unarmed civilians who only asked for a little more money to feed their starving families. Nicholas II deserved to be unseated. The Soviet revolution was just as unacceptably brutal, but no worse
Pobrecitos mis queridos nadie penso en el sufrimiento que sobrellevaban sufrieron lo indecible el rostro de las tres niñas delatan un gran dolor
Thank you for such a wonderful an accurate story of what happened after all these decades. Unfortunately the story is told over and over again in humanity. Us in South Africa where the disparity between the more privileged and the poor is great lead to a vacuum that can be exploited. Unfortunately the new masters enrich themselves and the poor people who vote in the new change are not better off. I wish the Romanovs had just fled to Corfu or another country. They'd still be alive today...
It was impossible for them to get away. After the tsar abdicated the entire family was guarded by soldiers and prevented from leaving the country. And since that was all over one hundred years ago, they would all have died by now of old age.
For people asking the song at the end is one step closer
I can't believe he didn't cry when he watched the Titanic. Do boys ever cry?
Me: Cries inside at the sight of this video.
All memes and jokes aside, may the Russian empire live on in our hearts! (if not come back) ☦️
True I always cry when I watch or read anything about the Romanovs
The Romanovs didn't dissapear they are with God we are tears in our eyes cause they are in our hearts . 🌍❤NAOTMAA ☦
I cried watching videos of Lenin’s funereal or reading about the last days of Karl Marx
The story of the Romanov Royals is extremely touch, extremely sadden, it pains my heart when I read and watch the Ramanov documentary. How they were murdered in cold blood especially the innocent beautiful princess and the prince . From the documentary it point out that Lenin ordered the killing of the Royals. Lenin thought he's great and immortal but he failed to realize that he too as a man is mortal and now he too dead. Russia must Revered and adored the martyrdom of the Romanov Royals of Russia.🤭
Yes, Russia must honor and bow before the martyrdom tsar. But the devil does not sleep, the media are turning the people against the tsar, against history. Likewise, the “beloved” Putin does not honor the Tsar; in one interview he even called him bloody and does not stop the media from throwing mud at the Tsar.
Lenin had a stroke in 1922 and died in 1924.
I felt so sad for RAMANOV FAMILY :'( MAY THEY REST IN PEACE.
Nicholas Romanov did not have the skill set to be an effective Tsar, much less a military leader.
However he was a sympathetic character, overwhelmed by the events of his time. His family was sacrificed because of who they were, not what they did.
Revolutionary Communists could not allow any of the Romanov Family to survive, with an inherited claim to the Throne of the Russian Empire. Read "The Prince" by Niccolo Machiavelli for insight on this.
Russian History is the History of my family from Ukraine. As a child of ten I had learned about the Russian Revolutions in the Spring and Autumn of 1917.
My reactions were to despise the Bolshevik Communists, a position that I hold to this day.
Maravilloso trabajo gracias a todos desde españa
God rest your souls. 🙏🏼💔
I wish that the some of the girls had been married off. At least Olga and Tatiana and maybe even Maria.
I have to thought this!! They were of marrying age , the 3 eldest......was it the girls? Or the parents who didn't want to let go of them just yet? The oldest was at least 20......She at least , could have been spared!! Poor ba bies , had to pay for the crimes of the father!! 💔💔💔
RIP Little darlings , I'm positive Creator has a special place in Heaven for all little ones , as for those who hurt you , well there's a special place for them too!! But not any where near you!!! ❤❤❤
Actually somebody who studied the Romanovs told me that the Grandma, Nicholas's mother, was going to talk Tatiana, Maria and Anastasia with her to Paris, Olga and Alexei were to sick to go but Alexandria wouldn't let them go or it was the girls didn't want to leave and it was just before Nicholas abdicated the throne to.
@@jessicamays8892 , Yes , I think it may have also been in the video somewhere that they all came down with Measels and this is why they missed the 1st and only rescue attempt or offer made by the King , before he unfortunately rescinded on the offer , I wish I could no for certain if it was in fact the Kings decision alone because he feared for his own shakey throne or if it was his parliaments decision for political reasons ? I would still like to hope that he would have saved his cousin , his mirror image such a terrible fate if he possibly could have!! But i believe it also said that once the children got sick and couldn't leave immediately , it was too late to send another rescue for a later date without risking the lives of so many more innocent men and would have looked rather bad on the British to sacrifice so many for the Czar who was really considered a monster to the people of Britain.......I also like to think that Creator makes no mistakes and that it was the ultimate decision of The Creator of all things living to take the Czar , Czarina and their family home to Spirit World as they had served their ultimate purpose and their earthly job was complete , it is said in my culture that one will take no more breaths then those permitted by The Creator and it is the Creator's decision alone who decides ones fate and time spent on earth! I pray for this family and no matter what I have heard of the bad they may or may not have done , that above all really means nothing really , to the Great Mystery , what matters is how they conducted themselves in his understanding and if they believed in him and prayer . I'm not a religious person, but one who believes in a very spiritual way as organized religious beliefs are not something that people have ever benifetted from! I have learned that the Czar , Czarina and their family and household were believers in a higher power then themselves and were praying people , this tells me that they would have gone on to be with our Creator in Spirit World! And this I can be at peace with! The ones who murdered this beautiful family , all of them! Have no place in that world!! Maybe in their " Heaven " with its streets paved with silver and gold .......🤔🤔🤔 but not in Spirit World where there is no such thing as such monitary values!! Money is the root of all evil!!
@@dorothycampbell5964 ...Their father committed no crimes. The planning for what became WW1 began at the Conference of Veinna in 1814-15. It was going to happen regardless of anything the Tsar did or didn't do. QUIT BLAMING THE VICTIMS!!!
@@Tboy439 beginning of wiping out entire generations was the agenda at that conference
What a beautiful song …..🌞
Great documentary. In 1782, the 18th century, during The French Revolution, a weak and indecisive king, Louis XVI, besotted with his wife, Marie Antoinette, and she was vilified by the obscene pamphlets, circulating in the country, the French people believed she was a German/Austrian spy, and the King was completely oblivious to his peoples' misery; both beheaded by the guillotine. The end of the Romanov dynasty is very similar to the last Bourbon king, Louis XVI. "Those who don't know their history are doomed to repeat it."

The parallels between the two kings are incredible.
Makes me so sad what the family went thr3.
Romanov family was a great treasure of Russia and Russians. But unfortunately they failed miserably to secure and protect that treasure for the future of Russia and future of Russian generations.
Dynasty of Romanov is the worst of the worst from all the ruling houses all over the world. They made their folks slaves in the times when slavery as economic sistem died out in the rest of the world, where began developing of capitalist sistem. Every tsar of this dynasty made life of nobles better and better but life of working people harder and harder. Thanks this dynasty, in the begining 1900s Russian economics was the most backward. With Romanov's lived good only nobles - it's about 2% of population that is why people kicked them out.
It's it's so sad that they all went through this back in those days God bless them low and nobody should deserve to go through what they all did God bless the family and friends I'm so sorry that the world was like this back then God help us all
Back then?
I’m a descendant of Tsarina Alexandra from the House of Hohenzollern, My great-great grandma had an affair with Sigismund Von Preussen, in which she gave birth to my grandma’s mom 1921 & my great grandma (my granny’s mom) gave birth to my grandma in 1938 with who she fled Germany in the Ww2, When her husband didn’t came back home after the war she lived her life out with another man, as they went on a few trips to Germany (while the cold war) and having to leave their clothes for the family over there who couldn’t afford to get clothes & as my grandpa was scared they would pick him up on the way to serve in the cold war.. Because of that cold war we lost almost all contact with my German family side, more than this specific line i don’t even know
You cannot be a descendant of the Tsarina Alexandra. She was married to the Tsar and had five children by him. All of them were murdered by the Bolsheviks. None of the five children were married and they did not have any children of their own.
May the late Romanos rest in great peace !!
