I never kept up with the lives of many of the royal children, but there's something that gravitates me toward Alice compared to the rest of Queen Victoria's children. It was tragic how she passed so young, but her legacy lives on through her great-great, 3x great, and 4x great grandsons and other great grandchildren in the line of succession
Firmly agree,there is just something so incredibly intriguing and fascinating about Alice as a historical figure,she is my favourite daughter of Queen Victoria and one of my favourite royals (along with Elizabeth of Austria) What makes her so fascinating is her incredible kindness and her dedication to improving the lives of others,here in germany her legacy is so big that a hospital was named after her in Darmstadt. And yet her story is also extremely sad because her life was filled with tragedy,despite being so caring and warm. Her brother Bertie or King Edward VII also said that she was his favourite sister because of her good nature
Queen Victoria had sound reasons for not wanting her granddaughter, Princess Alix, to marry the Russian heir, Tsarevich Nicholas. How their own lives, the lives of their children (and the history of the world) would have changed if Princess Alix had married another.
Thanks for another awesome video! Princess Alice was my favorite daughter of Queen Victoria! She was passionate about nursing and well I am a nurse, so means a lot. She definitely pass that on to her daughters. My heart break every time I hear the tragic fate of Elizabeth and Alex, so sad
King Charles III of Britain, his son Prince William and William's son George are all direct descendants of Princess Alice, Queen Victoria's 2nd daughter.
She wae my favorite of Queen Victoria's Daughters too. She was so beautiful, her daughters (except for Princess May who died in the diptheria epidemic who claimed Alice's life as well) Her 4 daughters were so beautiful as well that amongst the European Royal Houses they were referred to as "The Four Graces"
Apparently there was unbeknownst to Alice a 'rivalry' between Vicky German Empress' well, stocky daughters and the beautiful, thin, graceful daughters of Alice. I haven't finished the video so @BackToHistoryYT may cover this I have a tendency to instead of finishing the video first pausing it and posting rando facts lolol. My Bad Sorry my most wonderful and favorite Royal Family TH-camr ❤😊
@michaelverbakel7632 King Chadles III and his mother and aunt also male-line descendants of Queen Victoria's through her eldest son King Edward VII-King George V-prinvr Albert Edward Duke of York aks King George VI after Edward VIII abdicated-Elizabeth and Margaret. Prince Phillip was descended from Princess Alice of Hesse and By Rhine star of this video. Use Queen Lizzie Deuce was second cousins to her husband the amazingly handsome (when he was younger) Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburge
Queen Victoria would have been 99 years old at the time of the execution of her granddaughters Ella and Alix, and her great grandchildren. But had she been alive I don’t think it would have happened.
There was no singing from the mine shaft that the Romanovs including Elizabeth Feodorovna were thrown into. That is complete myth. Rasputin also never stopped the bleeding of the Tsarevich Alexis. This was proven beyond a doubt when in 1912 the Tsarevich had his worst ever attack of haemophilia in Spala in Poland. Rasputin was far away in his home town in Siberia. It is best not to repeat nonsense.
I just made a similar comment! Everything I've ever read says that when they were thrown in the pit they had been dead for so long that the July heat had caused bloating and the start of decomposition. The assassins hated them so much that anyone they shot who didn't die right away (like the women with jewels in the corsets), they beat to death with rifle butts or stabbed to death with bayonets. So unless the idea is that the singing came from a ghost...well, either way it doesn't make any sense.
@michaelflick1177: Flickflack, where did you get the documentation to support your claims? There is evidence that there was singing from the victims in the mineshaft per a peasant who observed the killing and crept close to the mineshaft. In addition, one of the victims had his head bandaged with Ella’s handkerchief. At the time of Alexei’s Spala attack in 1911, Rasputin was recovering from an attack that nearly killed him. When Alexandra reached out Rasputin for prayers, he responded that the would survive and two days after receiving the telegram, the bleeding stopped when a clot formed. All of this is supported by fact. Where is your proof??
Ella could have been a kaiserin but eventhough she could have been German empress nor Russian side still, both empires fell. And If Alix became an english Queen through the efforts of queen Victoria, maybe the british empire had fallen also. Sadfate for these Hessian sisters.
Had she become Queen consort it would not have signaled the fall of the British Empire. The lady who did become concert was Mary of Teck.Llike Alex, she was also a princess with a German title & Brittish roots. The instability in Russia goes back a few generations. Queen Victoria knew this. She thought a Constitutional Monarch( like England) was safer & more survivable. She was right.
Source for the singing in the pit thing? Everything I have ever read says the family was shot in a basement, and those who didn't die right away (jewels in women's corsets) were beaten to death with rifle butts or stabbed with bayonets, and only after bloating and decomposing for several days in hot July weather were they dumped in the pit and had acid poured on them.
That was the tsar and his immediate family. Other parts of the Romanovs were taken out at different times. I believe the tsars brother was first killed with a bomb in the streets. His wife dashed to the scene and tried picking up the pieces left of him, kinda like Jackie Kennedy in Dallas. The lady in the pit was very religious and became more so after losing her husband.

Very true! I believe Queen Victoria had outstanding intuition. So very tragic about the last days of Tsarina Alexandra and Grand Duchess Elizabeth.
Or she could have married a German prince and lived to see her sons and grandsons die in two world wars and lose all her titles, British and otherwise
She should have married her Cousin King George V or his elder brother but she rejected him .
@@kdhritireddyand she might cause the extinction of George V’s lines due to haemophilia.
@@EAlyahya That’s true
Princess Alice’s daughter Victoria lived to see both King Charles and Princess Anne’s born.
Kinda crazy to think of. I saw the picture of them together at Charles‘ christening.
@@BackToHistoryYT I’ve seen it too! The only person not in that photo was Princess Alice, his grandmother.
Poor Elizabeth this was horrable to sad. She was a deeetmladyn I hope yo meet her in heven
I love how timely each video is. Especially as we were holding a small celebration for Prince Philip's branch which is included here.
O incantare sa vad printesele Hesse ,frumoase ,delicate ,inteligente si foarte puternice,

Victoria was a carrier of haemophilia as well as Alix and Irene. A Great Grandson of one of Prince Philip's sisters, Felix, has haemophilia.
This was so interesting! Thank you….
Thank you!
narration is odd
Queen Victoria would have been 99 years old at the time of the execution of her granddaughters Ella and Alix, and her great grandchildren. But had she been alive I don’t think it would have happened.
Those genes are strong. I can see Charles III in his great grandmother Victoria and in Alice and Louis.
Princess Alice was so beautiful

Elizabeth wasn't with the rest of the Tsar's family when they were murdered. She was executed by the Bolsheviks in a different location.
Can we all acknowledge how HOT Nicholas was too compared to Albert. I know who I would have chosen CHILE
No, we're not "all" acknowledging it! This is your opinion, not everyone's.

@@jogeraghty4774 Yes, Elizabeth was not with the Tsar and Tsarina at her death. She was in another location at the time of her death.
Wasn't Elizabeth buried in an unknown location?
Yes, the entire throne are Germans. Duh.
@virginiagrundman4012: “Duh”? Well that’s an uneducated response Gruntman!!!
Ah, yes; the Queen Mum was certainly German - as German as haggis.
They were smart young women They love with all their hearts
Princess Alice, mother of Prince Philip, is buried in Jerusalem. Not England.
They were smart young men They love with all their hearts
Glad I was never a princess
