When did the mystery of Anastasia take place?
The best known Anastasia is the Grand Duchess Anastasia Nikolaevna of Russia. Legends about her possible survival persisted throughout the 20th century and have been the subject of numerous books and films.
What is the story of Anastasia?
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.
What is Anastasia the movie about?
The plot of the l997 Fox ( for the umpteenth time it is not a DISNEY opus) cartoon film takes some ( too many) liberties with the tale of the Girl Czarina and her alleged survival. for one thing, too woo the juvenile audience they make her out to be about a pre-teen child in l9l6, when they claim the Palace Revolution ( at St. Petersburg) took place. It is not directly stated but strongly applied that her savior and boyfriend Dimitri is an IKGB ( Imperial KGB) man but this is not directly stated- in one scene he shows his cased badge ( in red and gold) to a railroad conductor looking for fares and papers.The film takes other liberties with history- first of all Anastasia was l7 when the Massacre occured- in Ekaterinberg- not St. Petersburg- she is much younger in the film. How she could have gone in hiding as a child ( she falls from an observation car in the exodus to Paris- her Grandmother- who had gotten out of Russia years earlier- makes the trip to Paris-. again historical error- Empress Marie fled Russia early and was settled down in Denmark-not Paris. This, an ominous Occult presence- where Rasputin is almost a Frankenstein-like Mad scientist in some ways- and other historical innacuracies flake the works. The Anastasia saga in real life did not touch Paris, which plays a big part in the film . ( Paris holds the Key) the Amy Irving mini-series clung more closely to both the facts and the alleged facts- I personnaly believe Stacy did get out of USSR alive- but quite different than the film version of Mr. Bluth. There you have it, Comrade. Stacy"s dog, Pooka- a Russian wolfhound is shown throughout the film as a puppy or miniature dog- even though several years have unwound- the Borzoi or Russian wolfhound-indeed the national breed is a rather large canine- one dwarfs diminutive Ronnie Spector in photos.

I'm going to assume you're talking about the real Grand Duchess Anastasia. She lived in 20th Century Russia in the Winter Palace in St. Petersburg. After the fall of the Romanov Empire, the family was placed under house arrest and later sent to a Governor's house in Tobolsk, located in Siberia. The family was later moved to the Ipatiev House, a mansion in the anti-tsarist mining town of Yekaterinburg.

What was Nicholas II's response to the revolution of 1917?
There were two revolutions in 1917. His response to the first one, the February Revolution, was to abdicate his throne and step down as Czar. He had no response to the second revolution, the October Revolution, since he was a virtual prisoner of first the Provisional Government then a real prisoner of the Bolsheviks who overthrew the Provisional Government.
What event ended the rule of the czars?
The workers, soldiers and peasants of Petrograd and other cities ended the rule of the Tsars by sparking the February Revolution of 1917 in Russia. Thousands of people took to the streets demonstrating against the Tsar's running of the war, his inability to end constant food shortages and his refusal to make land reforms.
When Tsar Nicholas realized he had lost control of the military and could not stop the rioting in Petrograd and other cities, he abdicated the throne in favor of his brother Michael, who promptly refused it. The Provisional Government then took over.
Lenin and the Bolsheviks did NOT end the rule of the Tsars. Lenin and the Bolsheviks overthrew Alexander Kerensky and the Russian Provisional Government in the October Revolution. The rule of the Tsars had already been ended eight months earlier.
To what extent can Nicholas II be blamed for 1917 revolution?
Throughout his reign, Nicholas II made many poor decisions which discredited his regime and provoked fury against his governance. In terms of internal problems, he was unable to deal with the growing concerns over poverty and the poor living conditions of the lower classes, partially due to his ignorance and his unwavering belief that the people had unconditional adoration for their tsar. The growing problem of food shortages culminated in spontaneous revolts in 1917. His dogmatic belief in his divine right to rule led to a policy of systematic repression of dissidents, liberals and minorities, which further infuriated the populace. The tsar also dealt his foreign relations inadequately, and the losses during the Russo-Japanese War and WWI were blamed on his misguided leadership. He disregarded his ministers' advice, which alienated the aristocracy and led to poor decision making. His choice to go to the front during WWI to lead the army and grant temporary power to his wife and Rasputin was a horrible decision that completely discredited him in the eyes of the upper class. By the end of his reign, he had provoked fury among the aristocracy, the bourgeoisie and the lower classes.

What are 2 reasons for discontent in russia before the revolution in march 1917?
Mcdonanld and Tim hortons
The March revolution of 1917 (also known as the February Revolution and the spring Revolution) occur in Russia during WW1. It all stared when 90 000 textile workers went on strike in Russia protesting about the shortage of fuel and bread. Many people joined and by the end of the week 400 000 people had joined the cause. Signs that said "Down with the Tsar" and "Down with the war" were displayed. The Tsar (or czar spelt both ways) had banned protesting so he sent out the military to shoot the protesters. Instead the army shot their officers and joined the cause. Since the Czar had lost his army he offerer his position to his brother who refused and since his brother wouldn't take position the Czar abdicated. Several members of the Duma were chosen to set up a provisional government (temporary). They stayed in power until the the Fall Revolution. As for the Czar and his family they were sent to house arrest, then excelled, and finally they were executed. Rumor has it that one of the Czar's children, Anastasia, escaped the death. *Note- Many people also believe that the revolution occurred because people doubted the Czar because he was friends with Rasputin, aka the Mad Monk. Rasputin was a drunk who slept around with many women. The Czar and his family only put up with Rasputin because they believed that he could heal the Czar's only son Alexi, who was a hemophiliac. The public never knew about Alexi's decease because it would be seen as a weakness and perhaps people would have killed him so that the dynasty would end.
