Other than being two Tragic Queens- victims of revolution, not much in common. Both Marie Antoinette and Alexandra were originally of Germanic Nationality. The Czarina was originally surnamed Von Hess! Marie Antoinette was of Austrian extraction, not German- like Berlin, but a German-speaking country. She was one of the daughters of Maria Theresa- the chunky empress who is still honored on coins made well over 200 years after her death! ( the Maria Theresa Thaler- all of which are dated l780). Marie Antoinette was Catholic, Alexandra was Lutheran but converted to Russian Orthodox faith- most zealous in that line!
