The Disney movie "Anastasia" from 1997 is about an orphan girl who is believed to be the only surviving heir of Czar Nicholas II and how she tries to find out who her real family is after she lost her memory.

The story of the Real Anastasia is not as happy. Grand Duchess Anastasia Nikolaevna of Russia was the 4th daughter of Czar Nicholas II (she was not a princess). She was born in 1901. In my opinion, she was the ugliest out of her sisters (Olga, Tatiana, and Marie). She lived an extravagant life growing up, wearing beautiful clothes and living in huge palaces. She was called the "imp" by her family because of her playful nature. In 1917 during the Russian revolution, here and her family were kept captive in their home at Alexander Palace. There father abdicated the throne and she lost her title as Grand Duchess of Russia. They were later moved to other locations, but eventually ended up in the "Ipatiev House". On July 17, 1918, just a month after her 17th birthday, Anastasia and her family were brutally murdered by a firing squad in the basement of Ipatiev House. Anastasia, along with her sisters, was not killed by the bullets. The guards then proceeded to stab them to death with bayonets. The Romanov family's fate was a huge mystery of the 20th century...they had basically disappeared. It was believed that Anastasia had survived because her body was not found with the others in the 1990s. This is what the Disney movie was based on. They created a whole story about how she had survived and was later reunited with her grandmother and lived happily ever after. The true story did not end the same way. Anastasia DID die with her family in 1918. In 2007, her remains were finally found. All the bodies were accounted for and the long mystery was finally solved.
