    In Olga's 1913 diary, she mentions her mother's health every day. It must've been mentally exhausting for the children to grow up in this situation

      Especially knowing how little of importance they were. Those poor girls barely had their own identities. They were called the Big Pair and the Little Pair. Also OTMA like they were one.

    It's actually quite remarkable to see how public perception of the Romanovs has done such a complete 180 in Russia in recent decades.
    I recall seeing a procession march in Yekaterinburg back in 2018 on the centennial of the execution, and what stood out to me the most was a priest proclaiming the family as "innocent people who violated no laws". That message in itself speaks volumes about the massive social change in Russia since the collapse of the Soviet Union

    There's actually a very striking similarity between the reign of Nicholas II and that of Queen Elizabeth. They were both flung into the spotlight of the monarchy at very young ages due to their fathers' premature deaths, and faced immense struggles because of it.
    Nicholas' downfall was partially due to him ruling as a monarch based on horrendously outdated Czarist ideologies as his father and other predecessors had. However, global changes put him at a huge disadvantage destined to fail.
    Elizabeth II often struggled with a similar dilemma, conflicting outdated monarchist values of her predecessors with the demands of a rapidly changing world. This is seen particularly in her responses to the Aberfan disaster in 1966 and the death of Princess Diana in 1997, the latter of which came perilously close to toppling the monarchy altogether

    Love this documentary, particularly for the soundtrack. Thanks so much :) - although you seemed to have added music in random places... very strange

      ​@@KawaiiStars I wish removing the music entirely and using the voice over would be sufficient enough for YT to leave it alone. I also don't understand why people report it for music, isn't people hearing the music just free advertising for music that would likely otherwise go unheard ?

    I can't help but notice the similarities between Alexandra, and Marie Antoinette. They both were executed brutally. They both lost their children were murdered brutally, and they both were extremely unpopular foreigners.

      Definitely parallels but major difference is one deserved her fate while the other did not. The kids in both situations didn’t deserve what happened to them.

    53:51 The officer was Nikolai Pavlovich Sablin, almost twice her age. He was a close friend of the family but abandoned them during the revolution

      it's there so the video isn't struck with a copyright strike and taken down, there was another upload of the documentary just as normal but it was taken down by a strike last year I think. I do agree tho it is a little distracting when the music doesn't match the tone of what the narrator is saying.

    34:12 i always felt like they got scolded after he fell, the way they look back and all, I'd be frightened too though, given his condition

    I love these videos! Please do more of this beautiful family. These girls are ethereally lovely and they should have been much more widely seen and known by the Russian people. The most beautiful of all royal princesses in my view.

    It's a great documentary, no doubt, but can someone tell me why the Lady, who reads out Alexandras letters puts on a russian accent? Alexandra was raised by Queen Victoria, why would she have a russian accent?

    if they had looked outside their palace to talk to their people and really see their lives, Nicholas & Alexandra might have seen their misery. They failed to see the coming storm of revolution and their demise with their family and country.

    Wat is the piano melody that starts at 6:40?

    So hard to say what you would do in any situation but I would like to think that if I was a princess I would want to strive to be like Diana very kind, giving, warm and loving I wouldn’t want to put all my effort into my family and my country❤ I feel like especially back in the day royalty was almost set up for failure they had so much pressure so young.

    While Alexandra was not a big catch, neither was the “princess” from the deposed Bourbon Dynasty that both Alexander III & his wife preferred. I bet that woman was relieved pretty soon after Nicholas married Alexandra when things got very precarious in Russia.

    Great, to watch, and share, more of this, with you, guys! Fabulous, fabulous! I am more, and more, disappointed, in the, State, of, the, United States, and, European Monarchies. Also, with, all of the, Prior, U.S., Owned Lands. You are, still not taking, Monarchy, seriously, even though you have, Graces. Fact. Period. It is so loudly, evident. -Brittney Lee Hill Collier, Friday, Febuary, 16th, 2024. 4:56 p.m.
