- čas přidán 28. 04. 2020
- Who was the real Tsarina Alexandra Feodorovna? She has been described as haughty and cold, but was she really like that? Learn here the truth about one of modern history’s most discussed personalities. Her words, “In my heart is love and forgiveness for everything, though at times I am not as patient as I ought to be. I want to be a better woman, and I try” can be understood only if one studies the reality about her physical and psychological background.
Nicholas B.A. Nicholson was interviewed by Elissa Bjeletich about the content of the book “The Romanov Royal Martyrs: What Silence Could Not Conceal” and the show was broadcast live on February 9, 2020, on Ancient Faith Radio.
“The Romanov Royal Martyrs” is an impressive 512-page book, featuring nearly 200 black & white photographs, and a 56-page photo insert of more than 80 high-quality images, colourized by the acclaimed Russian artist Olga Shirnina (Klimbim), and appearing here in print for the first time.

A beautiful piece of film 🎞 on Alexandra. You guys have done amazing job bringing her to life again threw this film and your book. A better understanding and love for Sunny thank you 🙏 and god bless ☦️☦️☦️.
Thank you so much, Ashlee! It means a lot to hear positive feedback! All the best!
@Kildare Aleksander very true, but people have more "important" things in their lives in our times to think of...
Ashlee Jackson...I think the video inspires a great confidence with regards to the book.
@@RomanovRoyalMartyrs ķ
I agree, a big big thank you
This family will never be forgotten.
They are an eternal model of love and purity!
@@RomanovRoyalMartyrs : Also remember that every government that replaced them, especially that of Ulyanov, Bronstein and Djugashvili was worse, much worse.
@@fritzbasset8645 not just worse, actually there is no metric of comparison between evil and good, is there?
And neither Rasputin
@@RomanovRoyalMartyrs my cousins were not Martyrs they did not die for religion , they died because a monster wanted their position
As a young woman she was incredibly beautiful wasn't she? I've always believed Alexandra was treated very unfairly by history. She was someone to be admired, not reviled. I'm urrently reading Helen Rappaport's book The Romanov Sisters. Really fascinating.
Very well said! She is one of the greatest victims of historical propaganda! But those who have the eyes of their hearts open can see the truth! Helen Rappaport is a great scholar and a colleague of ours! In her book "The Fours Sisters", however, she has a certain views on Alexandra which she has herself changed now, after more research!
I’m also reading the Romanov Sisters. I am neutral on her situation. She suffered in childhood, had mental issues, depression, pressures from society and the health of his son. It is a great story that I’ve been fascinated many years. I hope to buy the Romanov Martyrs someday.
Alexandra was shy, fiercely private, and uncomfortable in public situations. She loved her husband and children passionately. A beautiful and extraordinary woman who was sorely misunderstood by her contemporaries and many historians.
Very well said! She is one of the greatest victims of historical propaganda! But those who have the eyes of their hearts open can see the truth!
@@RomanovRoyalMartyrs Thank you for presenting the truth about Alexandra and her family. Their tragic fate is beyond heartbreaking.
@@JayveeSonata we're glad you liked the video! There are many more on our channel and our book is also very revealing of many untold truths. Here's the link for more about our book: www.romanovs.eu/en-book
JayveeSonata in my opinion if she was too private and uncomfortable in public, she wasn’t a good empress. Look at the British Royals since Queen Victoria had to be in touch with the people for the survival of the monarchy
Being shy, fiercely private and uncomfortable in public situations don’t make for a good Empress. I think this is why Nicky’s parents were so opposed to Alix. They could see she was not Empress material.
But she was a wonderful mother & a devoted friend.
This is the woman who wrote a prayer asking God to forgive her oppressors.
What a joke!!! You are so naive! She should have prayed for God to forgive her for starving and torturing her subjects. If she would have been a good person there would have never been millions rising from their misery and oppression to butcher her family. If only she had the heart to give her people mere bread and water.
@@joemar6411 Alexandra was naive in the sense that she thought the people of Russia would love the Romanov family no matter what, but she most definitely cared about the Russian people, which is why she and Nicholas paid for all the coffins and funerals of the people who died in the crowed during the coronation who had come to get the free food that was being given out. They also openly mourned the deaths of all who died in Bloody Sunday, not to mention she transformed one of the Romanov mansions into a hospital for all of the wounded men in WW 1 and personally cared for many of the patients there, devoting almost all of her time to them. The popularity of the Romanov family had already been on a decline since the 1870s and especially after the bombing of Tsar Alexander lll father which caused him to ripped up the treaty his father had made in anger and grief, which ironically was actually going to guarantee more freedoms for the people of Russia. So really if it hadn’t been for the Russian people themselves, they would have gotten the freedoms they wanted a lot sooner, the Romanov family wouldn’t have been held hostage for years and brutality murdered, and there would probably still be a Russian monarchy today.
I also have to add, you can understand from this video why she was canonized a saint. Bless her soul forever. May she intercede for all of us.
That's very true! She had very strong spiritual watchfulness and sincere self-awareness, which constituted the most severe judge of her soul. She wrote: “My greatest sin is my irritability. … I want to be a better woman, and I try. For long periods I am really patient, and then breaks out again my bad temper.” This constant severe self-examination made her a true soldier of Christ who trod the path of holiness to the end.
whoever did the colorizations of the photos did a masterful job.
Thanks! It's our excellent project colleague Olga Shirnina, aka Color by Klimbim.
The Romanov Royal Martyrs: What research was used to determine the colors in the clothing??
Sadly I feel Alex was so misunderstood by those that betrayed the Tsar and his family.
On a happier note, they will never be omitted from history. We can't change the past but we can, change the future.
💜🤝💙
So, very true, Vicky! Love always survives time!
Thank you for painting a much kinder portrait of the Empress than is general known ....may she and the rest of her family REST IN THE ARMS OF GOD !!
You are very welcome, Larry, and thank you too for your kind comment! We are very happy to hear that there are people out there willing to see the truth rather than the fiction stories spread for more than a century now! It really is a shocking event! Have you heard about our book? It has been published recently and it includes previously unpublished texts and documents about the life and the murder of the Romanov family. Here's more about it: www.romanovs.eu/en-book
@@RomanovRoyalMartyrs Hi,royal martyrs :I have a Question:some people claim that the family was never killed in 1918.They all survived and the most members of the family had a long life(only Maria got sick and died at the age at 58.What do you think of it?
@@RomanovRoyalMartyrs Thank you for providing this resource so we can learn more about the Romanovs. I'm a history major, and am appalled how students aren't taught history in the modern era, but propagandized rewritten history, that is taken out of the context of the period, and is misguidedly judged within the context of the modern era. You can't judge history using the standards of today! Our world, the environment, standards and conditions of life with modern technology, advanced modern medicine, computerized factories and industrial farms, jet travel, cell phone communication, internet social media connection, interstate highway systems for transport and travel, have created a life style environment, and life experiences so foreign to our ancestors that lived over 100 years ago, or the people that lived in (Russia a century ago), as the Romanovs; that it's impossible for the people to accurately judge with honesty and clarity, and in depth understanding, the circumstances surrounding the period of that time.
Not to mention, the totalitarian environment of war and revolution, which was a life and death struggle for existence, that could change within a second depending on where and how the revolutionary winds blew. Combine that with starvation, peasant revolts, brutal winters, the after math and chaos of WWI, and the Bolshevik Revolution, you literally are plunged into a World at War, between itself, within itself, with all the elements of nature, disease, starvation, and antiquated technology to survive it. Compassion didn't exist then, not even for nuns and orphans.
@@coyotedust it is really nice to hear that serious researchers, such as yourself, are willing to see the truth for what it is. If you have not read our book, we urge you to do so, simply because it includes an abundance of previously unpublished materials which show the truth in its real dimensions. We have worked for long, gathering numerous archival documents from Russia, which will surely impress you. And since you are a history major, you will find it immensely helpful to know all this information! All the best, and thank you for your comments here!
@@s.kanninchen105 read this scholarly paper shared on our website: www.romanovs.eu/romanov-bones-revisited
This film moved me to tears. Empress Alexandra was a beautiful person, both inside and out. May God bless and keep her and her family in his loving embrace for all eternity 🙏.
And all the slanders she had to endure all throughout her life, from day 1, made her even more previous before the eyes of the Lord and before us!
Wow coments. I live in Russia, but I don't even hear that from Russians.
@@RomanovRoyalMartyrs That is why they are martyrs. Not only because of death, but also because of their life. But not only martyrs, but also confessors, confessors of the Christian faith.
@@user-wq7yi6he5o You are very right! Here's an article on our website that you will surely find interesting: www.romanovs.eu/on-the-canonization
As a mum I can't imagine the pain she must have suffered seeing her children being treated abusive by their captives she was a remarkable lady
A truly remarkable, and wildly slandered, woman!
Im only glad she didnt live to see the treatment they received in that bloody cellar. She was one of the first to die following her husband. No parents should see their children die in such a horrible manner.
Perfectly appropriate music for the video and Alexandra, it was stunning.
Glad you liked it, Lulu! Many thanks!
She did finally had joy with her husband and children. She did have some quality of life. Haunting ending.
Beautifully presented and narrated. Thank you!
You're very welcome! We're very happy you liked it!
My heart is broken for her that she suffered as she did in her life and especially in the end for her to know the children she loved and would’ve protected them with everything she had as a loving mother would I can’t imagine her heart breaking just before and as it stopped beating... I’m so sorry she and her family was murdered but they went to heaven together no more to suffer! If only King George had taken them in as he originally said he would but changed his mind he could’ve save their lives! 💔😢 May they all rest in everlasting peace with Our Lord, Our Blessed Mother Mary, his Saints, and Angels. 💔😢
Yes, in the human perspective, in the reality of our current form of existence, this is a terrible tragedy. But as you say, now they are in heaven, in eternal bliss, and they remain a strong model of love and forgiveness for all of us. May we manage to walk the path they did, with love and sacrifice for one another. Amen.
Tiffany Sanchez why do they always acuse King George? The Romanovs didn’t want to leave Russia either way!
Tiffany Sanchez Romanov Cousin king of England made a cowardly decision to deny the Romanov’s a life in England .
British plans to save the family fall through.
Britain regretted the offer almost immediately. The government was nervous having the Romanovs on British shores, while George V’s private secretary, Lord Stamfordham, feared an uprising against the monarchy.
The king soon urged the government to rescind the offer, leaving him open to claims that he abandoned his family for politics. “I think he’s been scapegoated for too long,” says Helen Rappaport, author of The Race to Save the Romanovs: The Truth Behind the Secret Plans to Rescue the Russian Imperial Family, adding, “[Not to] exonerate King George, not at all. He had a role he could have played more effectively…But the chips were down and they had to choose.”
George V expressed his concern for his cousins in private letters, but he knew the situation was precarious as most Brits at the time called the former czar “Bloody Nicholas.” They also despised the German-born Alexandria just as much, as anti-German sentiment was at such a fever pitch that George V eventually changed the royal family’s name from the very German “Saxe-Coburg-Gotha” to the thoroughly British “Windsor.”
Great Britain also needed to tread lightly with the new Provisional Government in Russia; it would be a disaster for the Allies if Russia succumbed to internal pressure and withdrew from World War I.
Personally, I can't imagine not saving my cousins. The story is a horrible tragedy of innocents.
Alexandra Feodorovna your name sounds like one of those Russian royal names . I guess you’ve been told that before . I still don’t agree with George’s decision . The Russian Czar was his cousin . They were like brothers . I would’ve taken them in and worried about the consequences later . there was no need to murder that family . Of course , Shay the bolsheviks did was a predictor of their brutality . The czar was clueless about how the poor were suffering , I agree . Someone needed to pull. Nicholas’’ head out of the clouds . Oh, well .i guess it was supposed to happen , just like the crucifixtion of Jesus was supposed to happen . Both events are sad events in history .
This was so respectfully and beautifully done. Thank you

Unlike other Royals lol lol....
what disastrous liaisons throughout the
centuries AND of course, our own ‘funny’
lot!! Tbh I think there are too many of them, 🇬🇧
but that would have been the case with the Romanovs,
AND other royal 👑 dynasties going back to Henry VIII
and before that! Mind you, in those days, the penalties
were more than extreme if one stepped out of line!! Lol 😆

Very sad the family end...

This story is so sad. I pray that their spirits are resting in peace. None of them deserved to die😢 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you. I stumbled upon this history in the 1990s by accident and have been wanting more writings and film about them. The love of a family and strength to be brave til the end.
Hi, Kevin, you will surely love our recently published book! Have a look here: www.romanovs.eu/en-book
I have watched this film with tears running down my face. What a life of suffering and yet also so brave. Also had a deep faith in God. Her last prayer for those who were going to execute her and her family was beyond moving. The Empress had been forewarned that she would die a martyr death. Amen
Very well said, Gavin. Alexandra's life was full of pain and tragedy, but she nevertheless managed to give glory to God in everything and remain forgive-full to the very end! We are very happy you liked the video. Best wishes!
Pull yourself together!
Lenin was a hero during his time, more popular than Tsar himself!!. But history has dumped Lenin where he ought to be, a widely reviled heartless mass murderer. The Tsar, and his family, who he planned to erase from History became martyrs instead with their memory considered precious to millions of Russians today. Truth always wins!!
Wonderful comment! Thanks for sharing.
@@RomanovRoyalMartyrs From the time I learnt about the fate of Tsar 2 years ago ,while studying in 10th grade,I always loved watching videos of the Tsar.No matter how many I watch, I keep on watching,never getting tired.I haven't gone outside of my country India, till now.But the first country I will visit is Russia and the first landmark I wish to visit there, is Church of all saints,to see the last room ,such a devout man and his family spent their times in.Actually I have fallen in love with Russia and its Christian culture, while learning more about the Tsar, Olga Federovina and many others.God bless Russia!!!!!God bless the Romanovs!!!
@@evanssamuelbiju4315 The Soviet Union fell, so Vladimir Lenin is crying in the afterlife.
@@savagedarksider5934 Who said that there was a great festival in hell on the day of Lenin's passing? I forget. A clairvoyant Athonite elder perhaps.

Thank you, for bringing the spirit of Romanovs again. In God’s mercy, the family should be alive again..God brings The Tsar.
We are happy that you find our project interesting! All the best to you!
My eyes are filled with tears. Another Great & moving piece of art. I’ve always held a soft spot in my heart for HIM Tsarina Alexandra. People love to portray her as a demon who controlled her husband the Tsar. She’s misunderstood & I’m glad pages like this are shining a light on the Truth. May their Souls rest in peace ✝️🙏🏻
We are very happy that you enjoy our content. Thank you for your kind comments!
The Romanov Royal Martyrs God Bless 🙏🏻
But if you read in reality she controlled her weak husband and made him do as she wished. And she was controlled by Rasputin.
Jose Eduardo Tschen Behind ever man is a Great Woman. They believed what they were doing was Right & Godly! I don’t believe the Tsar was Weak.
J Nicholas-Windsor maybe she was a great woman bot not in politics.
Beautiful presentation thank you so much 🇮🇪😊
Our pleasure! We are grateful for your kind words!
Thank you very much for the film. I ve got a lot information about Alexandra I never knew before. I'm from Ukraine
Hi there, Svitlana! we are very happy to hear that from you! This is exactly why we wrote our book, as well. To show people the unknown truth about this family! All the best to you!
This film of Empress Alexandra is lovely I was always lead to believe she was cold and aloof...I'm so glad to finally know that what I read when I was younger was not how she really was...thankyou this was beautiful to watch 💜
Glad you liked the video!
Even though they are not my ancesters, I am still fascinated by their story.
She really was a beautiful woman in her youth and yes she was attractive as she aged but it seems the health issues she suffered and probably the anxiety and worries she must have felt for their situation in her country took a toll on her. Absolute wonderful job on this video. I enjoyed it immensely.
The colored photographs give such a different feel to their realness and how they looked what a delight to get to see them.
Thank you for your kind words, Cindy! We are very happy that you are interested in our project! We hope you enjoyed reading our book, too, which is really the most important fruit of our work here! All the best to you!
The story of the last Emperor and Empress of Russia is very sad, but also very revealing of just how much one person can love another. I believe Nicholas and Alexandra were soulmates. It was their destiny to be together and they knew it the very first time they met.
I also believe Alexandra was a very good hearted person who truly and sincerely wanted to help people. She was clearly misunderstood.
Nicholas, Alexandra and their five beautiful children will never be forgotten. Their incredible story and tragic end will continue to reverberate throughout time. May they rest in peace.
Царя звали Николай, а не Николас. Вы перепутали,это русский царь! Пишите правильно имена,будьте добры. Или не пишите совсем!
Good to see years of Marxist lies overturned with the truth about this beautiful family.
Amen
@Adrien Yb ?
I have to say the film clips are great, but the book is even better! I’m so enjoying reading it! The details are amazing. And the love this family had for God & each other...I’m sad I know how it all ends. But thank you for writing such an amazing piece of history down for us to read! 💗
We are honoured and flattered by your kind words and your positive feedback! Thank you for taking the time to write this. We are very happy that the book met your expectations! Best wishes!
Excellent video ,with very creative use of photographs and flim. And as always ,something I haven't seen before too! Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it! Many thanks!
Her mother was very kind & caring & had a love for nursing.
That's very true, Amanda! And that's from where Alexandra was inspired as a child!
Her mother Alice was also a very progressive, was a feminist, fiercely independent, to the point that Queen Victoria would scold her in her letters to Alice. Alice also supported the Hessians as Prussia violently tried to unify Germany; that's is when she began nursing, during that war.
I find it amusing that Victoria chided her daughter Alice and admonished her that women should be publicly retiring and not take on roles of leadership, while always encouraging her eldest daughter, Vicky, the Prussian Crown Princess to try to affect more matters of Prussian policy, even as Bismarck disliked and distrusted both Vicky and Prince Albert, her father who foresaw the peaceful unification of Europe.
Great documentary and sad ending to their beautiful lives.
Beutiful pictures of beatiful family.
God bless their memories and the creators of this film. 🙏🎆♥️
Thank you so much for your kind words and the blessing! We are truly blessed to hear such words by our viewers! God bless you, too!
She was sunny, until she lost her mother and siblings...that's what I make of it...she was forever changed by their demise
What a beautifully photogenic family!!
I LOVED the photo of the Empress with her daughters!
They were soooo exquisite........
I believe she was an excellent mother and went through a lot...
Many of the population it seems, did not like her
and I think this is unfair...she was a victim of the whole Romanov
sad saga + of the times she lived in, and I feel she tried very hard to ‘fit in’....
But lovely to note how much the soldiers loved her ❤️
when she was a Nurse .......I feel angry when I think of
our own Royal Family in those last months who refused to
give them all sanctuary (I think that’s correct) ! Lol
It’s a bitter sweet irony that although the family were all murdered
at least their remains WERE finally discovered and they
were laid to rest properly! 😢😢 in St Petersburg .....
I would love 💕 to visit!
RIP 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🥰💕🌸🌸🌸🌸🇬🇧
People do not believe in the "remains.... Everything wad done in a hurry ...like a special order.... Looks unnatural to have anything after many years.... as if someone specially put it in some place to be found ...My opinion is the Family had not been murdered....It was a spectacle to save them....
I visited Russia on 2018 and I was told by the Russian guide that all the family are considered martyrs.
In spite of the complex situation at the beginning of the XX century, they didn’t deserve to be killed.
Evil action will be remembered always by the human being
❤️🌺🌹♥️🌸❤️
Yes, the Orthodox Church commemorates them as martyrs!
The church abroad (ROCOR) venerates them as martyrs but Moscow Patriarchate as passion-bearers.
Провославная Церковь поминает Святую Царскую Семью,как страстотепцев, Они же - великомученики ,преданы священничеством и князьями ,которые принудили Царя Николая Александрлвича отречься от Престола.
Царская Семья не быда расстреляна,как нам врали всю нашу жизнь ,было ритуальное убийство организов.масонами.
Убийство начали с Цесаревича Алексея,другие члены Семьи были привязаны к стульям и читали молитву :" Да Воскреснет Бог и разыдутся врази его и да бежит от
лица его негавидящий его..." Это было открыто старцам!
Для нас Православных ,Наш ЦарьИскупитель греха российского! Как и Иисус Христос Искупитель человечества!
Мы очень любим СвятуюЦарскуюСемью и на сегодня Николай Александрович остается НАШИМ ЕДИНСТВЕННЫМ ЦАРЕМ ,ДО ПРИХОДА БЛИЗГРЯДУЩЕГО САМОДЕРЖАВНОГО ЦАРЯ (МИХАИЛА), из рода Романовых ,по пророчествам монаха Авеля.
Мы живем в последняя времена,Спаси Господи Вас и Вашу семью.
Слава Богу за Все !
Alexandra definitely was a saint. The honor was very appropriate. She endured tragedy, loss and chronic worsening physical pain throughout her entire short life
Wonderful to hear this from people! Thanks for sharing! Unfortunately, to this day the poor woman is still being maliciously slandered and cursed! At least we know that she now rests in eternal peace in Heavens!
No she wasn’t a saint. Read a little history to meet the other side of the picture
Somebpdy should take his own advice and read some history that isn't regurgitated Bolshevik libel.
@@joseeduardotschen9186 so you are saying that she deserves to murdered?

However, your videos help to FEEL the tragedy of their sweet family.
Good job👏
Thank you so much, Diana!
Thank you for this video!
We are happy you liked it!
What a beautifully done video. It's nice to hear about who she really was. In some ways she reminds me of Princess Alice, the Duke of Edinburgh's mother, who was also seen as a cold & aloof woman who in reality was a loving mother who did a lot to help during many battles as a nurse as well as donate to help others who were in financial need even when she didn't have a lot of money herself. The colourisation done in the photographs in this video are just lovely & very realistic, ( they look like photos that could haven been taken today).

so sad that this wonderful family has been murdered... i watched the documentary again and again and i love this family. may there soul rest in peace...
Tsarina Alexandra Feodorovna•Romanov has a resemblance to Princess Diana...In Wonderful Dedication of Great Deeds & Timeless Beauty!
💖♾💖
Quite an interesting observation!
No, the most resemblance in modern days with the Romanov family is Prince Michael of Kent. Always when I see him it's like seeing the Tzar Nicholas.
Doesn’t look at all to Princess Diana.
She was misunderstood. She didn't deserve the fate
That's very true and this is the reason we made tis video, hoping it will help shed some light on the truth about who Alexandra really was.
What a beautiful woman-inside and out. What a beautiful family. Empress Alexandra, pray for us! 😬🙏🏻
Wonderful. I'm new to reading about the Romanovs, and although the current book is mostly sympathetic to the Tsarina, I've learned via this video how sweet and compassionate she was.
Thank you, Cindy! You can explore our website if you like and learn more about our book and our project. Many thanks again! Here's the link: www.romanovs.eu/en-book
Which book are you reading? Have read like 10 and they are or neutral or not sympathetic to the Empress.
What a beautiful tribute! Thank you!
People didn’t go around grinning ear to ear in this society.
Photographs took a long time to take..it would have been hard to hold a smile for so long.
Royal photographs are that. Most likely based on painted portraits. Silly grinning doesn’t fit the purpose of these historical recordings
Remember it was the evil Victorian age-smiling or grinning aren't in Queen Victoria's playbook, unless it was a bill gates sort of grin.
If you look at the majority of photos from the victoriana era there are very few who are smiling. One photograph took a long time to take, must have been hard to sit there for ages, especially for children. No wonder they looked fed up by the time the photo was taken.
She was beautiful - inside and out 💐
The imperial family special handsome one ,she was aperfect mum and wife .
I wouldn’t say perfect mum. In my opinion, the girls upbringing and education wasn’t the best.
Well,compared to how most girls are nowadays...
Alexandra did an amazing job as a mother. Her daughters weren't spoiled,but caring. Two of them were nurses.
She looks holy with tenderness .what a beautiful creature of faith.
Hello! You will surely love our recently published book, because it reveals the wonderful characters of each member of the family, through their own writings. It's a most vibrant biography! Have a look here: www.romanovs.eu/en-book
A wonderfully perceptive and artful video.
Thanks, Steven! It means a lot! We are trying our best to inform people about the truth of this family. In our book we address many myths of that era. So many lies have become "history"! Thank God, now all archives are made public and every one can see/read the truth about that time.
The Romanov Royal Martyrs ...I am going to buy the book. I have always been very sympathetic to the family and have read about them intermittently through the decades. My lasting impression was that no human should have had endure what they endured in the final months and weeks of their lives. And they endured it with such exceptional nobility of spirit.
@@powerliftingcentaur thank you for your interest in our book! We would be greatly happy to hear your impressions after reading it! All the best to you, and keep in touch!
I always feel sad when ever I watch the video of the care Nicolas and his family's untimely demise!! Very sad the British Royal family let them down , I mean they're own cousin's how very sad. May they rest in peace 🙏❤️
How they are related to British Empire
We can see that they were a loving family! The Russians know that they have made a great mistake! That's why they were canonised. But it's so hard to know the cruel end of this beautiful family...😢
This is, sadly, exactly so...
I agree. A lovely family with love in abundance. The tsarina was very misunderstood by the powers to be. She was kind, gentle, and a big heart. Her Faith sustained her and God was with them all in the end.
She looks A LOT to my late grandmother, it makes me feel more affection for her.
My son have an uncanny physical resemblance to Alexei, I was forever hooked on the royal family when I noticed the resemblance. My heart ache and sadness for Alexei was also magnified because of the resemblance. I wept for the fact that Alexei could never grow into adulthood.
A beautiful fascinating informative Video about the life of Alexandra Feodorovna and it reveals her true personality and her good kind heart
I think she was very shy and hardly no one knew her really. A mystery, that she got old so early at looks.
The Tsarina had to be an INFJ personality, complex and deeply faithful who are very intelligent but not the showman or show off type. The type to observe and see details others miss entirely. Hearts of gold, concern for others and never quite knowing themselves since they pick up on the feelings of others as if they are their own feelings. No wonder the Czar was so in love with her. A beautiful love story. Perhaps Twin Flames. Odd but much of that could connect to vagus nerve conditions.
She was so beautiful , a class of her own , I think even if she were alive today would certainly stand out in a crowd -so sad how they were murdered !
We wish that more people could see this truth like you do! Thanks for your comment here, Jan! Have you visited our book's website yet? If you are interested, have a look here: www.romanovs.eu
I am sorry, this still bothers me to NO end... wow, may they all rest in peace--may I inquire as to the name of this music-- it is nice, it puts you right there with them that are in trouble or repair-- thank you again you all for giving us this gift...
thank you very much ...there are many beautiful flowers on tables
Many many thanks!
I am so glad to have found your videos! They are wonderful
Thank you for sharing in this beautiful piece of history ! I just love it .❤️🙏🇨🇦
Glad you enjoyed it! We do our best to inspire our viewers through the life of this loving family.
I don't know the problem Alix has she didn't engage the Russian people and noble. This is one of those occasions if the family was merchant class and commoner they would be happier. Just being an ordinary family will be greatest desire.
What a wonderful presentation.... thank you
We are very happy you liked it! Thanks for watching!
It’s hard to know that these people met such a horrible end, they weren’t just murdered they were desecrated. I feel what happened to them can’t be forgiven but good must come from it, this book looks incredible. As silly as it sounds I can see one day the monachy being restored, at least as a constitutional one I think Russia’s still coming to terms with what happened, rest in peace your majesty.
Yes, it sounds silly to restore a monarchy that hardly did anything to help its people during 300 years.
Very beautiful documentary
So beautiful to see the colourized photos.
I had the same thoughts
@@georgealderson4424 It shows them so vulnerable, so human which accentuates the ultimate tragedy of their fates.
Seeing the Tzarina as young, I must say her daughters beauty didnt come from strangers.
Love the photograph at 15.00. She had a beautiful smile!
If you are interested in their story, you can have a look at our recently published book, which includes an abundance of diary entries, letters, memoirs, and many coloured pictures. It's a remarkably vivid portrait of the character of each member of the family! Have a look: www.romanovs.eu/online-store
Empress Alexander was good Mother. show care for her people. they did not Know she care
Yes, so true, only a few people understand who she really was!
Maybe she cared but that was not enough.
@@joseeduardotschen9186 She was just a woman. She could not save the whole Russia. Only the God could save the whole Russia.
@@user-xl4ks9ec3f you are right. The Empire was doomed from the beginning regardless what Nicholas II, the government and Empress Alexandra did or did not do.
When your heart is made with loyalty , trustworthyness & love, even if you try to fake a congenial demeanour with deceptive people, they see your truth and are shamed by it. Better to be away than to expose lies with your light. What a beautiful story and film. 💝🦋💐
Thank you so much, Tania, for these wonderful words! We are so very happy that you liked our video. We hope you'll enjoy the rest of our channel's videos, as well!

So very well done! Thank you!
I just watched the film in Netflix, The last Zar, And I think this family beloved and helped each others and If they were born normal family , they would be have a happy life.
Unfortunately, They were Royal family and the time was wrong. I really sorry for them what is destiny they had... so sad and tragedy
They have been canonized. I believe May of Teck encouraged her husband to refuse the family sanctuary in the UK as their was dislike between the two women. Two of the daughters had their bones DNA analysed and were positive for Haemophilia gene.
Una grande zarina, una grande mamma, una grande donna ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Benissimu!

In many of the portraits, the Empress has such a sad, faraway look sometimes. She must have suffered greatly in her life.
Very true! Her suffering is something only a mother can understand, who herself has undergone (or is undergoing) the same trial. Alexandra was watching her child dying in agonizing pain, and she was feeling responsible for his condition because it was through her that the disease was transmitted to him. Imagine that! To be a mother and to know that you have transmitted a disease to your child, which kills him slowly and causes him unimaginable pain! Well... Words are poor to express this. And this is just one aspect of her tragedy! There were so many more sides to it. We refer to them in our video, but of course, only touching the tip of the iceberg. In our book, we cover this subject extensively.
In the Bible Jesus said it is hard for a rich person to get into Heaven. Alexandra was different. She was so humble and unselfish and more rich people should follow her example. Everyone should regardless of status.
It is very true! And the fact that Alexandra and her family lived so spiritually and humbly even though they were royals, makes them even more great before the eyes of God!

A beautiful blessed loved family right to their end of lives!! Everytime i watch these videos , i feel i knew them , i feel so sad that they left us like orphans... Extraordinarily music! And narrator's voices just goes through your skin leaving you all with mixed feelings!!
God Rest their Souls!!
Wait, if she couldn't abide fake people, and could sniff them out, how was it that she was sooo easily duped by Rasputin? He lied right to her face, he went around spreading lies and rumors about her. When she was told about his behavior she insisted it was some other person impersonating him. Even when the family went to her, saying they were worried about what he was doing to the family's reputation, and they were concerned about the fact that he had been found alone in girl's bedroom. She still turned a blind eye to it all.
Reading Nicholas and Alexandra by Robert K. Massie. I am impressed and appalled by Alexandra’s meddling in politics with their Friend Rasputin influence and direction. Dismissing, appointing ministers, removing, etc. We might have to thank her for helping bringing down the monarchy. Without experience and handling an empire?!?! No doubt it didn’t work.
Jose Eduardo Tschen: You have very little or no knowledge of what you speak; you border on being an idiot. Alexandra did not ‘meddle’ to help bring down the empire. With the Tsar at the front, the very nature of Russia’s government meant she was in charge. A deeply religious woman who relied on Rasputin, as she believed an earthly agent of God, it was only natural she would rely on him to assist her in making ministerial appointments. No, it was not a wise choice but neither was for the Tsar to take control of the troops in WWI and to get involved in the war. It was just a complete tragedy by individuals who honestly thought they were orchestrating the correct course.
This family will always be remembered,makes me feel sad reading about them knowing they were all murdered by the Russian Government
Thank you !
Whether you are a Republican or a Monarchist we can all agree that these were exceptionally good people who met the most abominable end. They may have sat atop a system that needed enourmous and radical change but to treat them in this way is one of the great crimes of the 20th Century. The more I learn about them the more admiration I have for the goodness of their lives and the more appalled I become at their treatment and that includes the Tsar and Tsarina but particularly those entirely innocent children. R.I.P.
Beautifully said. Bravo
She had a sad look in her eyes
Her life was tragic from day 1!
Beautiful video and very precious ❤️❤️❤️🙏🏼
Watch our newest video, the rarest Romanov documentary ever made: czcams.com/video/y6f7hbFYOeg/video.html
Какие прекрасные лица, и как это было давно.... Спасибо!!!
Благородная , любящая женщина. Прекрасная семья. Сложная судьба. Достойная жизнь. Вечная память! 🕊
whats the name of the song in background?
THE EMPRESS IS PRETTY AND HAD A BEAUTIFUL EYES
enjoy your film very much...they should return
Very touching
Does anyone know what the music is called?
Wondering the same. Really nice piece of music.
There is a bit of Princess Dianna in her; it seems for her care of the poor/sick! If you notice there is a sadness in her eyes from a child on up...The times in photo's I see that change is when she's with her children or/and husband...Then there is an assurance of love and security of proud joy...
