The ruling family of Czarist Russia, in popular usage the last batch of Romanovs the immediate Clan of Czar Nicholas II and family- Czarina Alexandra, Czarevich ( crown Prince) Alexis, and the Grand Duchesses, In chronological order- Olga, Tatiana, Maria, Anastasia! The rest is history- worth studying and looking up!
The Romanovs were the last Imperiall Family to rule the Russian Empire. The last leader of this dynasty was Tsar Nicholas II. He was Tsar during the troublesome period of the First World War. In 1917, the Bolshevik Party, under the leadership of Vladimir Lenin, orchestrated a rebellion, known as The October Revolution, that toppled the ancient autocratic Russian aristocracy, resulting in the capture and imprisonment of the Tsar and his entire family.
After this, the Romanovs were transported to various locations around Russia under Bolshevik protection, a scheme intended to keep them from falling into the insurgent Tsarists. These insurgents would later form fragile alliances with the communists' enemies, forming a military body known as the White Army (in contrast with the Communist "Reds").
Despite this, many elements in the Government felt that it would be best if the family were "removed" from the political circle, as they were a lasting threat during a time of Civil war in Russia.
It wasn't until 1918 that the family finally met their ends.
Whilst there are many theories, nobody knows exactly why they were executed. It may have been a Government order, or an independent act by the Romanovs' imprisoners. Whatever the case, somebody had decided that they had become too great a threat to be kept alive.
On 17 July 1918, Tsar Nicholas II was executed, along with his wife, daughters, son, maids, and Doctor. They were killed via a disorganized firing squad: so disorganised that it took some of the victims a while to die; the daughters were finished off with bayonets.
Following this, their bodies were disposed of, via a variety of attempted means. Eventually, the bodies were buried at various different locations.
There is no doubt that the Romanovs' execution was highly illegal, and the act was covered up by the Bolshevik Government. The truth was not fully revealed until the 1990's, when the remains were finally excavated.
That would take a long time to document all of the Romanovs. Here are some of them: Nicholas II Romanov-Alexandra Romanov = Olga Romanov Tatiana Romanov Maria Romanov Anastasia Romanov Alexei Romanov
The Romanov family of Russia was an imperial family who were murdered by the Revolutionists. The mystery of what really happened to them remains unanswered.
They died.
The last member of the Romanov family was Czar Nicholas the II. He was murdered by the Bolsheviks along with his family. There are still Romanov family members around today, like Grand Duchess Maria Vladimirovna and Nicholas Romanov, Prince of Russia. Also Czar Nicholas had sisters who had children and of course had children themselves.
The Romanov dynasty start in 1613 with Michael Romanov, it ended in the 1900's.
no, they thought they were descendants from the Romanov family
The Romanov Family
There were many men on the execution crew who killed the Romanovs. Takov Yurovsky was is charge of the execution and killed some of the family members himself.
The execution of the Romanov family was ordered by the leader of the Bolshevik revolution, V.I. Lenin.
Anastasia Romanov was killed purely because she was a Romanov. When the Bolsheviks eventually came to power after Tsar Nicholas abdicated, Lenin ordered that Nick and his family were to be killed to end the Romanov dynasty and family line.
Hemophilia.
No, Anastasia Romanov did not have any goals. All she wanted was to help her family, and keep her family safe.
Romanov pronounced Ro-marn-ov
anastasia romanov was important to her family because she was there last daughter and at the same time .... they didnt want to lose her.
Nicholas II's dynasty was the Romanov family, which ruled Russia for 300 years from 1613 to Nicholas's overthrow in 1917. Actually, the Romanov family died out in the 1700s, and was succeeded by the Holstein-Gottorp family who assumed the dynasty name of Holstein-Gottorp-Romanov, which was usually shortened to Romanov.
