Is Anastasia of Sirmium the same person as Anastasia Romanov?
No. the Anastasia you mention is medieval or earlier Middle-east- say Russo-Turkish theatre, saint. Anastasia Romanov, more properly Anastasia Nicolaievna- the daughter of Nicholai ( it would be bad usage to refer to her on the street, as Anastasia Romanov during the Empire, as bad as yelling ( Hey Betty Windsor!) at Queen Elizabeth II /. show some respect, the Last name was- understood and understated. she did not use the Anastasia Romanov handle until after the Diaspora, circa l922. Floreat Anastasia!
Was Tatiana Romanov pretty and what color hair did she have?
well we shall stay in your historical present time-warp. Of course, Tatiana Romanov is pretty, all the four sisters are. Tatiana is an honorary intelligence officer in the Imperial KGB, and has the winter get-up with a Purple leather trench coat- epaulets and insignia of the rank of Major/Inspector ( these are equivalent ranks- a Police inspector is the same level as an Army Major.) She also has a neat specialized helmet with a sort of odd combination of a (Mercury Helmet) and academic mortarboard on top this may have been special for IKGB officers. (needless to say this headgear is in 2009 obsolete)- it was used in modified form by the Nuns in the PLAY Agnes Of God, it is not a religious costume in real life but was used in that Broadway play) Tatiana"s get up survives- I saw some of her togs at a travelling exhibit on Czarist Russia at the Newark Museum some years back. She had a Purple and Gold watch fob with the Cyrillic letters T/N superimposed. Probably enamellee platinum, cool. all of the Romanov Girls used customized Jules-Jurgensen Pocket watches- Anastasia"s survives in a Moscow collection, not for sale! The Jules Jurgensen watch was superior to the American Hamilton and was popular not only with Russian royalty but with Polar explorers such as Amundsen, Steffansson, etc. they all used the boxed Jules Jurgensen Marine.. In the twenties the company had ads showing a Polar Bear on the ice, and the caption- On Top Of The World, and a picture of the watch- plus testimonials by arctic hands, most of them were Scandinavian, and the Jules Jurgensen Marine model- was made in Copenhagen and hence govt. Issue- but High class. i ENJOYED YOUR QUESTION. Tatiana was also nicknamed or code-named Bow-=Wow- possibly she liked dogs. D"aio Sveedonya, Comrade- I think it is Female Comrade! Tatiana had auburn-brownish hair. For the person that answered above sorry to say Tatiana wasn't called Bow-Wow that was her younger sister Maria that was called that plus it was fat little bow wow, which they used in french too, le bon gros tou-tou
Did Olga Romanov have any children?
Grand Duchess Olga Nikolaievna Romanova, eldest daughter of Tsar Nicholas II and Tsarina Alexandra, would have been 23 years old in 1918 when the family was shot and bayoneted and the bodies burned.
There is no record of her having ever married, although there were many rumours of prospective husbands. Due to the political and international turmoil of the period, and her heavy commitment to the duties of her position including nursing of wounded soldiers, and the fact that the family was mostly locked away in seclusion at Tsarskoe Selo, it is unlikely that she married or had any children.
There are a great many rumours concerning the Romanov children, Olga, Tatiana, Maria, Anastasia and Alexis, that one, some or all of them survived, but technology is gradually disproving the rumours.
Well of course the Olga people are talking about didnt. But her aunt Olga Alexandrovna Romanova had 2 sons.
The Imperial Double Eagle was the national emblem under the Czars. There are a number of varieties, some have two heads sharing one crown, some have two crowns and some- do not confuse with the Italian ( Triple Crown) have three! On the Eagle"s Breast is a scene of a Knight fighting a Dragon- the Saint George bit, the Order of ST. George was a war medal that came in several classes for valor in action, and in some cases a (House Order) There were miniatures for Princes- such as The Grand Duke=Czarevich- Alexis- they resembled the familiar German (Iron Cross) in shape but they had the Saint George logo in the center, and were , depending on ranks and grade, either silver or Platinum, not Iron. The Field Grade badge- limited to officers of Field Grade ( major and above) was worn about the neck like the German (Blue Max) after which it may have been patterned, this was a white enamelled Platinum Maltese ( don"t say Iron) Cross of eight points. There was also an Alexandra cross which was not a war medal- but a House Order limited to Female members of the Imperial family- there were five made- Original One for the Czarina, and one for each primary Grand Duchess ( Nicolai"s four daughters) interestingly other noblewomen of Grand Ducal rank- such as Princess Elizabeth who was the sister of the Czar, while princesses, were not eligible for the Alexandra Cross. the Alexandra Cross was platinum with a malachite ( green enamelled) inset. Only five were made not counting wearing copies for parties and what we would now call press conferences, a (social gathering) at the Kremlin, e.g. One and possibly two of these priceless items survived the revolution- being Platnum they are rugged, and one was exhibited in New York in the mid-thirties at a department store by a Russian charitable group. I know, My dad saw it with his girlfriend, who was of the Sovietskaya Ukraine, as she styled it and a deep-purple Anastasia fan.
Is Anna Anderson Anastasia romanov?
Evidence exists for and against. after her death, her body was cremated- destroying any possibility of comparative anatomy ( Hey, she is not a fossil of a dinosaur or something) She knew too many details of life in the Romanov household to have ficitonalized them all. Methinks-Da- Girl Czarina of all the Russias- So Be it ( maybe not the best closure!) sounds like Soviet.
Why were the romanovs murdered?
The White army was coming close to free the Romanov so they thought to get rid of them all together so nicholas could not take back the throne
Anastasia awareness is when someone gets put under and you feel everythingg.. that's happening to you but ur paralyzed and cant move or scream to tell anyone that their hurting you... you can also hear their conversations and stuff.. and smelll.
Did Rasputin cause the deaths of the Romanovs?
Rasputin was a man who took care of tsarevich alexei, who was a hemophiliac. Scholars think he hypnotized the young prince to alleviate his suffering when he had a bruise (the internal bleeding wouldn't stop, and the wound would become swollen and quite painful).
While only the tsaritsa respected him, Rasputin was not the direct cause of the deaths of the Romanovs. He was under their patronage, it would not have behooved him to have them killed. rather, they were murdered by the bolsheviks, in the "house of special purpose". They were shot by 11 executioners, and because they had all of their precious jewels sewn into the lining of their clothing, some of the bullets bounced off of them. This is why some rumors arose of the family being protected by god.
The Czarevich (Crown Prince) was born in l904 and was heir-apparent to the throne.He would have been l4 at the time of the Massacre. He was a hemophiliac so chances of survival were extremely slim. None of his sisters had the disease, and certainly not the perky Anastasia.
He was born on August 12 (July 30 O.S.) He was 13 they were killed on the 17th of July 1918
Maria was the third daughter of Tsar Nikolai and Tsarina Alexandra of Russia. She was the older sister of Anastasia. Also a great-granddaughter to Queen Victoria.
Did the Tsarevich Alexei Nikolaevich Romanov have disease?
The Crown prince suffered from Hemophilia. this was common knowledge. there is no way he could have survived the St.Petersburg Massacre- which actually occurred in Ekaterinberg, city of Catherine. One wonders. A. if he had died of Natural Causes, then one of this sisters, namely the oldest Olga would be Propriat Apparent Heiress and -had all the revolutionary troubles NOT occured, she would have been the first Regant Czarina on the death of Nicolai. Olga was a compassionate young woman who was a registered nurse with the Imperial Red Cross, and plyed her trade at the various Veteran"s Hospitals which were full during the war. she probaby would have made a better Czarina than Stacy, but this did not happen.
The fourth and youngest Czarevna ( Crown Princess) of the family of Nicholas II, the last Czar of Russia. She is also correctly styled a Grand Duchess.
Who was the first king of Russia?
The first King of Prussia was Frederick the Great. He was the King of Prussia from 1740 to 1786. His grandfather ruled in Prussia before him, but he was not called a King.
What role if any did Rasputin play in the fall of Romanov Russia?
Rasputin's presence in the Romanov family history did not have an influence of the royal family's downfall. Yes, he did have some say in decissions through his friendship with Alexandra, however these did not impact the major causes of the fall of the Romanovs. The fall of the Romanov's was inevitable as a result of social discontent and Tsar Nicholas' inexperience along with other factors.
Anastasia
What did people think of tsar Nicolas ii?
The Russian People thought that their leader, Tsar Nicholas II was all together not worthy of being the Autocratic Ruler of their motherland. They thought him incompetent, idiotic and insignificant.
Did Anastasia survive the shooting of the Romanovas?
Anastasia was supposed to have survived the shooting because of Diamonds and other gems stitched into her clothes. nobody knows if it was her or her sister who survived. Since then there have been many reports of being 'Anastasia". The truth maybe be connected with Bulgaria, i know a prosecutor who has developed a very persuading theory that they have come and lived till their death in Bulgaria.The only problem is that he doesn't have enough money for a DNA analysis as a final proof.

What happened to the Romanovs after November Revolution 1917?
On July 17, 1918 Tsar Nicholas II, Empress Alexandra, Grand Duchesses Olga, Tatiana, Maria, Anastasia and Tsarevich Alexei were executed in the basement of Ipatiev House in Yekaterinburg, Siberia and then mutilated, burned and buried in the woods. The woman had sewn their jewels into their dresses causing some of the bullets to bounce off of them, fueling the rumors of survivors after only five of them were found in 1991. It was believed that Anastasia and Alexei survived but later two bodies were found nearby in 2007. They turned out to be Marie and Alexei.
How did Nicholas II personality contribute to the demise of the Romanov's?
Nicholas II was not really prepared to be a ruler. He was more of a 'family man' who would rather play with his children than rule a country. He was not a strong leader because of this.
Nicholas became ruler suddenly when his father, the previous tsar died. The day of his coronation, 2,000 people were trampled to death. Not wanting to appear foolish, Nicholas still attended a ball held for his coronation, but to the people of Russia, this made it seem as if Nicholas had no respect for the lives of his people.
Nicholas II lived in a time when things were changing, but because of his personality, he could neither drastically change the government, nor could he keep it the same. His indecision allowed the Bolsheviks gain ground.
