The Last Christmas of the Romanovs
Vložit
- čas přidán 29. 12. 2020
- Christmas 1917 would be the last for the Romanov family. Isolated from the world, exiled in Siberia, they lived the joy of the feast of love, distributing gifts to the members of their staff that they had made themselves. Under house arrest and closely guarded, they were able to organize a traditional Christmas that was in many ways their closest family holiday.

This video is produced as part of the project for the book "The Romanov Royal Martyrs”, which 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, colorized by the acclaimed Russian artist Olga Shirnina (Klimbim) and appearing here in print for the first time.

@@RomanovRoyalMartyrs wow great reply, thats definitely going to be an interested read. Do you know what happened or is it in the book; to the jewellery sewn in the dresses and what happened to the art and contents of the palaces?
they all the religious and warm people, how they talk to each other, every poem, diaries, and letters, every laugh and tears...romanovs are the most beautiful and soft family. i’m not even russian, but still, sending all my love to heaven.
):
Shameful that their own family in England refused them asylum. Absolutely shameful. They'll never live that down.
Such a heart breaking story of the Romanov family a terrible travesty and tragedy a terrible loss of life cut so short may The Romanov family rest in peace
Forget for a moment that they're Royals. All I see that a beautiful family was uprooted for ever. May their souls rest in peace.
I am an Indian and I studied a lot about Romanovs. The cruel fate consumed them was not necessary. Why kill them? It was sheer brutality of communists
Sould sighs !
Never forget the story of the Romanov Family.
That is one of our project's main aims. We hope it serves the purpose!
You have given the world a beautiful look in to the Romanovs. I had so many questions about their life , love of family and country. Their unjust and horrifying death! The story of life! You have truly made my soul complete! Eye for one needed to know their story. I wonder for years about the story of the Romanovs! Thank you so much!!!
@@laurelalbright9692 this is really one of the best and most motivational comments we ever got on our channel! We are deeply grateful, humbled, and honored by your kind words! It spurs us on to continue with our weak efforts to provide our followers with more videos. Have you read our book? That is basically the main core of our project which has given the world, for the first time, the complete truth about this family and the time they lived.

@@maura1686 how exactly do you mean?
It is new Year here in Central Europe and my thoughts and prayers are with the Romanov family. May their souls rest in eternal peace. 🙏🙏🙏
They were a beautiful family. Such a very sad story...brings tears to my eyes... Russia was very near to my family's home in 🇵🇱Poland.
Now I am in tears. Such beautiful children.
They were such a loving family! And so slandered to this day!
Can’t help but shed a tear watching this and other stories about those closest to the family. They seem like really good people. Not just as royalty but as simple human being. You can not help but fall inlove with them. Can’t imagine the trauma felt by the 2 tutors who survived the killing just because they are not Russian. Thank you so much for sharing their stories.
I do believe the Tsarina and her daughters were, basically, kind people but knew nothing of the living conditions of the Russian people. Tsar Nicholas, 'though devoted to his family, was however dictatorial and very stubborn, even failing on occasion to take the sage advice of his ministers and generals. It's therefore easy to have sympathy for the women of the family but not to have much empathy for the Tsar. The personality traits of the Tsar probably contributed to the advice, given to King George V by his advisers, not to grant asylum to the Imperial Family in Britain.
who ever you are we were

Here, in Romania, the Nicolai Tzar and his family are respected like saints, and we have icons of them in churches. We also have the Brâncoveanu family with a similar story-who lived in 16 century.
They are saints of the Orthodox Church worldwide.
@@RomanovRoyalMartyrs yes and our queen was directly related to them, her mother being an ex great duchess of Russia. Also Olga was initially supposed to become queen of Romania, and little tsarevich Alexei and princess Ileana's probable future marriage was also in discussions.. Until you know...

Thanks for your post, which is very much appreciated. -
However, as you are in Romania, please don't forget that in your neighborhood next door there still is sick and dangerous vermin around who have "icons" of bestial socialist/communist criminals such as Ceaucescu in whatever you call it: their toilet, loo, bog, join, soakaway: you name it. Remember, they need to be destroyed for good, the communist/socialist = murderous vermin I named, and along with them the images and sick communist/socialist ideas they are worshipping.
Perhaps they really went there to different countries, separately? I just can't fathom that, despite supposed DNA evidence conducted by biased interests people, that they really were assassinated...perhaps it is such a terrible thought that I, personally, do not wish to accept...perhaps there was a baby in hiding?
They kept their faith till the very end. God bless them all. Petra HNL
Thank you for watching this video, Peter! We hope you'll find more videos on our channel that you will enjoy. Here's one recommendation: czcams.com/video/NEHNpqydBbo/video.html
Their kindness and piety was too good for this world.
Unfortunately, it's almost like a haunting spiritual law that all those who live in perfect love, always suffer the most.
They only loved each other NOT their people! Didn't care about their people whether they lived or died, whether they had food or not!
You need to brush up on your Russian history.
@@rockysullivan4134 agreed. Nicholas was responsible for millions of deaths in WW I

One of my Christmas presents is the book, Romanov Royal Marty's ,what silence could not conceal. RIP beautiful family.
Wishes for a blessed New Year!
@Theresa Pierce
Martyrs, not Marty’s.
It's so touching i already got it it's not just only a book is a tresure
This book is a treasure I'll cherish for the rest of my life 🙏❤
I agree. A beautiful family. So tragic.
Long live the memory of the Romanov‘s 🙏❤️🙏✝️✝️✝️
One allways can brag about loving his country and people but in the sacrifice of life , they have shown the world the meaning of true love, that of a Mother and Father for their own children . They will live for ever in the Soul of Russia.
Very touching words, Marcelo! Thanks for sharing!
@@RomanovRoyalMartyrs I have (LONG, FELT), a deep, connection, to THE ROYAL ROMANOVS, (from my teenage years), my father, was from Hungary, but have yet, to find, that, connection, 😔. May they (FOREVER REST), in GOD'S TENDER LOVING ARMS, FOREVER, AT PEACE. May they, (NEVER), BE FORGOTTEN, THEIR BRUTAL MURDERS,(NEVER), BE FORGIVEN ! 😫😢😭🕊👑💖☦🇷🇺🇦🇺
They will never be forgotten!🙏
The story of the Romanovs started out with such hope 🙂 what happened to them must never be forgotten. Lessons should be learnt . Tolerance understanding , acceptance 🙂
Beautiful video of the imperial family together. God bless you and the royal martyrs may they never be forgotten and remember us in there prayers 🙏🏼☦️💕.
Thanks for the video.May ALMIGHTY bless the souls of the Czar Nicholas II and his family.
Amen! We wish you a blessed New Year!
@@RomanovRoyalMartyrs Thank You and wishing you the same.May GOD bless you.
Rest In Peace Romanovs and may your Christmas’s now be ever joyful cause you are now with Jesus Celebrating His birthday in Heaven! Love and God bless!🙏🏻✝️☦️💛🎄🎁
Yes, these spoiled, over indulged, cosseted royals are enjoying Jesus in heaven despite the suppression and starvation of their people. What did they do to deserve your prayers and how can they be revered.
@AndreaLuise Ca. Yes, it was on 6th - 7th January, not 24th December. Indeed there is no real proof that jesus was born in December. I wonder how jesus apostles were celebrating Christmas or they did not do it.
Have you even read about the children. They didn’t deserve their brutal endings because they were simply born into a family with such political power. Olga cared about her people and even used her money to pay for a boys medical bills because he couldn’t afford it. She was politically aware of the state her country was in but what could her or any of her siblings do? The children were innocent and yes naive, but they were not monsters. They had no control over the government. I’m not a big fan of the Tsar or the Tsarina but I have all the empathy for the children. If anything they wanted to help their people and even most of them wished to marry simple soldiers and not aristocratic men. Their tastes were rather simple considering the grandeur they lived in.
It touchs my heart how much they were close to their faith. In fact, their faith was their salvation in the end, because yes they were together, but I think that their bond through religion brought them closer and brought peace to their souls. Their faith inspires me to be more religious.
This is exactly so, and we are happy that you are able to see it!
Agreed
I would not be alive today if it wasn’t for Jesus Christ
Before CZcams and even before internet I used to love 💕 Russian History specially that concerning the royal family. There was no important and no abundant information which always made me feel disappointed, but now I'm very happy to see and enjoy so many videos about the Romanovs. Thanks so much for producing and sharing these master pieces. Greetings from Mexico. 🤓
A beautiful family, so sad that they were murdered
A beautiful family gone too soon. I look forward to reading Romanov Royal Martyr's, what silence could not conceal. RIP to a beautiful family.
Hello, Kathryn! We'd be very happy to hear your thoughts once you have read the book! Have a blessed New Year!
Really heartbreaking. Its really sad how this world can be filled with such evil. I can only hope that this beloved family is resting in peace. ❤
Whereas the Bolsheviks turned out to be worse, the Tsarist regime was responsible for massacring thousands of people, not to mention its wars. Presumably the evil you are referring to is that of the Tsar.
The children and the queen did not deserve that death.
We will never forget!! May these royal martyrs rest in peace beside the throne of god !!!
R.I.P. Ich bin ein absoluter Fan der Romanows. Ich war schon mehrmals in Russland, aber vor dem Mauerfall. Es wurde in der DDR alles totgeschwiegen. Irgendwann kehre ich zurück und sehe alles mit anderen Augen. Vor allem Dingen das Bernsteinzimmer möchte ich unbedingt sehen. Herzlichst Agnes
I am not Russian. I only know what I’ve read and researched but I think of this family all the time. I ordered your book and it’s absolutely fabulous!
Thank you, Lin! We are so happy you liked the book and we hope it helped shed some light on the truth about the dark years of that time in Russia and about the last Romanov family.
I am not Russian too but since I learnt history as a high school student, I have been abhorred by what the communists had done to the imperial family!
@@facemaskchannel I am not Russian either but became very interested in the Royal family after hearing about them. Now I am obsessed with them just as I am obsessed with the Tudors. I will be ordering the book soon.
@@RomanovRoyalMartyrs the book translate in spanish?
I live about as far away as you can get from Russia (Melbourne, Australia) but I have read everything I can find about the Romanovs dating back to the 1600s. Such a cruel ending of the dynasty
Hello, Debbie! Thanks for watching! So, have you also read our book? We'd be happy to hear your thoughts on it!
A very heart breaking and sad end of the last CZAR and his beautiful family. After seeing the sad historical film Anastasia starring Ingrid Bergman many many years back I read many books on the history of CZAR family. But the end was very tragic . I pray from the depth of my heart for them. Prayers from Hyderabad Sindh Pakistan
Спасибо вам за любовь к такой далекой от вас Царской семьи. За Вашу молитву за них. Даже в России не все принимают их, как Святых. Может у вас больше правды о них, чем у нас
📍Прошли лета, и всюду льются слезы…
Нет ни страны, ни тех, кто жил в стране…
Как хороши, как свежи ныне розы
Воспоминаний о минувшем дне!
Но дни идут - уже стихают грозы.
Вернуться в дом Россия ищет троп…
Как хороши, как свежи будут розы,
Моей страной мне брошенные в гроб!
И. Северянин, 1925 г.
Эмалевый крестик в петлице
И серой тужурки сукно…
Какие печальные лица
И как это было давно.
Какие прекрасные лица
И как безнадежно бледны -
Наследник, императрица,
Четыре великих княжны…
Георгий Иванов, 1949 г.
Selfless and God fearing Royal Family, beautiful in spirit and love. RIP ROYAL FAMILY.🙏💒💜💙❤💛Thank you for the truth. God Bless you in the New Year🎆🙏❤
Beautiful documenrary. God bless Romanov family and all who make this great effort to maintain their memory
Thank you very much!
The evil that did the horror against them will never rest in peace. They are condemned forever. History writes the final chapter and the truth.
Yes
Anyone who had participated in Tsar's death was dead miserably during Stalin's great purge. Justice still does his job.
Had never heard the story of Fr. Nicholas Gibbes. Wow. Puts a lump in my throat.
We hope to do a short video about him in the future. Wishes for a blessed New Year!
I had heard his story.
A video giving more details would be welcomed
@@ladyagnes9430 we trust that we will eventually be able to do one!
There is never any need to kill like this, they coul have been sent to exile, after signing that they'd never enter Russia or attempt to gain th throne again! How horrific to stand there, seeing your murderers at close range. Those children must have been absolutely petrified! ...old Tich.
I had heard that the family thought they were going to have their picture taken. But, if course, that wasn't the case.
George V wouldn’t let them go to England.
@@haylabox1662 That has been proven to have been a lie
Absolutely unnecesary and without any sence ❤🙄😥😊
Unfortunately they had to die as if left alive, monarchists could have rallied around them and try to reinstate them had they won the civil war with the Reds. Common practice throughout history.
So terribly sad. But, the whole time, their eyes were on God and they loved family.
This beautiful family's life ended into an assassination which no one would have thought in their wildest dreams. Ohhhhh god may their souls rest in peace.
Amen!
I love the Romanov. Nicola my zar ❤❤❤
R.I.P to the romanovs. May there spirit's live in our hearts. The didn't desever to die in a bloody way. They should hve lived much longer

Another fantastic video! Thank you! I find among the most compelling events of this time was when the family was briefly split up in the spring of 1918. Marie went with her parents to Yekaterinburg and the other girls stayed back with Alexis in Tobolsk because he was not well enough to travel. For the family it was a time of even more anxiety and pain because they were separated. When Alexis became well enough to join his parents and Maire, some of the retainers urged the other girls to wait. But they wouldn't hear of it. Olga said " We are lucky to still be alive and see our parents once more. " I write this because some people ask me why didn't the children at least get away. But you see, even if they could do so, they would not leave . All the family wanted was to be together. One sees this as they actually enjoyed that last Christmas, because they were indeed together.
Heartwrenching.
So tragically painful and that never changes.
Such deep abiding faith in the midst of profound adversity is both humbling and awe-inspiring. Tsar Nicholas and his family deserved the Crown of the Martyr and the Laurels of Victory.
Смешно называть мучеником убийцу, жившим со своей семьёй до своего справедливого наказания на всём готовом, имея при этом врача и обслуживающий персонал.
It is ridiculous to call a murderer a martyr who lived with his family until his just punishment on everything ready, while having a doctor and attendants.
@@tinatin7949 Tsar Nicholas II was God's annointed ruler of Holy Russia who was canonized as a saint and passion bearer by the Orthodox Church. If you wish to discuss murderers, there is no need to go back further than the Marxist vermin who terrorized, brutalized and butchered millions of their own and subjugated people for 70 years until their foul system collapsed in the stench of its own putrefaction in 1991.
@@tinatin7949so you think his wife and children should have been murdered, because of the sins of the father do you? Shame on you!
It is my shame as an English man that the late King did not send enough help to the Romanovs . He only sent one warship HMS Marlborough . Rest in peace children you did nothing wrong.
Of course he didn't. But 6 tons of Romanov gold became English. That was the reason.
Un altro scheletro della attuale famiglia reale inglese. L allora re d' Inghilterra negò a suo cugino di ricevere la famiglia imperiale sul suolo inglese e così non si salvarono neppure i ragazzi che furono trucidati. Però quando gli esuli per vivere vendettero i loro gioielli la regina Mary ne fecce man bassa a poco prezzo . Questa è la famiglia reale . Gli inglese né vanno orgogliosi però dimenticano i fatti storici più atroci perpetrati da re e regine che non erano neppure di radici inglese ma radici tedesche.
@@kratos6802 , wow. i didn’t know that 😢
Had he sent a platoon if ships it wouldn't have made any difference. the family were far too I'll to travel
@@melbabowen4389 You didn't know that,because it never happened.
This story must never die. Communism equals misery and death
Communists also got rid of fascism in Europe in 1945..... nothing certain in history. Cruelty was coming from both sides that time.
Not real communists - the Khazarian Mafia
@@annayudakhina8908 as if communists weren´t fascists themselves.
This royal family's inability to raise the common Russian living standard is what made fertile ground for communism. The blood they shed is their own doing.
@@juliosunga3530 not really... there were a lot of different reasons why it did happen. Excelly Russia was one of the most advanced countries that time.
Thankyou for this , their lives should never be forgotten .
Hello, Eileen, and thanks for watching! Yes, we try our best to keep their memory alive so that their loving example may inspire those who seek the truth!
Thank you for this moving tribute!! It's amazing they were still able to have a happy time on their very Last Christmas in 1917 during their time in exile in Siberia.
Thanks for watching! Yes, that was one of the family's main virtues; they were able to adjust in any conditions and they always found strength in one another to endure any and all hardships, even death.
That's funny because Russian Orthodox Christmas is January 7th not December 25th. A little bit of historical confusion here.
their kindness to those who remained loyal- even to their guards speaks to their faith, so so lacking today in 2020 / ALL NOW REST IN HEAVEN
The production values of the video really are superb and the casting seems spot-on. Interspersed with stills, the excellent narration and appropriate musical background, the video really brings the story to life. The colourizing of the photographs, is also stunning - I was especially drawn to the family portrait shown at 6:45 in this chapter.
As being half polish/ russian decent on my dads side i feel a connection to the romanov family. God may they rest in peace. May God smite communism.
Thank you for sharing this video. It is very haunting and sad that the king of England, Tzar Nicholas's own relative, would not stand up and stand tall to save them. May the Romanovs continue to rest in peace.
God bless the Romanovs and the Russian people. ❣️
Rest in Peace Romanovs, God may bless you !
I live in the USA, TEXAS. I am 58 years old. Back in my High School Years, about the year 1979, I wrote an English paper on the Romanov's. The paper helped me earn a scholarship in English and Literature.
Useless info: I also wrote about Greek Mythology and the 1942 fire of Cocoanut Grove nightclub, Boston, MA
L'ets keeping them in our prayers
They are Saints.
Ask them to guide us.
The dead do not suffer the living to pass. Do not pray for the dead. Their time came and went. Their eternal fate is sealed.
They do not need our prayers - they are Saints. We should pray that they interseed for US, & point us toward seeking the path to Heaven.
I hope , in Eternity, to meet them.
God forgive them...........
I've been loving Russia since I was 5, since I knew the story of Anastasia and her family.
Since then, I read everything I could to find out more about them. I collected photos and magazine articles that I found about them and now I am a Russophile. I have my home library full of books of the biographies and letters of the family in their last days.
I remember a very nice article from a magazine that they sell here in Spain.
I remember that the first Russian historian (Vladimir Ustimenko, a specialist in Marxism-Leninism who had been born in the previous system) who saw the photos of the family, expressed how he had a degraded image of the family because of the previous regime.
And I was very moved by what he said: "They don't look like the monsters we had been told in school for years that they were. In the photos they look like a peaceful family, very close to each other and very happy"
"When I saw their faces I knew that until then my whole life had been founded on a lie. You don't lie in privacy, faces don't lie"

That is exactly stuck me in the heart in the summer 2022 when we were at Gatchina - just look, eyes. Only after that I started to investigate more, I tried to remember what has been told to us at school, I found my old books - there was nothing regarding the end of Tsar family. Now I feel so much for them, it was so cruel. The only feeling and wish that I have is that all those jews who organized that horrible situation would come to hell forever
Love, light and blessings beautiful people xxxx
It's so sad!!! What the bolcheviques did to the Imperial family was such a monstruosity!
Exactly. Moreover they rewrote history, hid those facts
Rest in peace darlings, you will always be in our hearts. May God bless you!
Always on my mind😥😥😥😥
Rest in peace Romanov family. You are spending your Christmas with Jesus this year and your joy is far better than anything known on this earth. Love you all and God bless!💛✝️🙏🏻
A respectful video of their tragic deaths. Well done.
It's funny reading their diaries, because in many ways I feel Olga and I are similar, though 100 years apart. What strength they showed to be joyful even in the end.
I feel the same with Maria, and my younger sister reminds me of Anastasia.
One time I came across OTMA's mbti (Myers Briggs personalities) & realize I shared the same type as Anastasia's (ENFP). From what I'd read, I'm impressed how the youngest Grand Duchess always managed to keep everybody's spirits up at the best & worst of times with her humor (same as me). Poor princesses, gone too soon, but never forgotten where they will live forever in our hearts 👸👸👸👸
For anyone curious:
Olga: INFJ (The Advocate)
Tatiana: ESTJ (The Executive)
Maria: ESFJ (The Consul)
Anastasia: ENFP (The Campaigner)
How different their lives would've been if George V had given them asylum in England
I suspect Lenin would still have arranged their assassination
@@rockysullivan4134 if they were in Britain how would they have assassinated them?
@@EAMCFC Trotsky thought he was safe and Putin kills opponents at will. It would not have been difficult to get Russian agents into Britain, or to get some home grown Bolsheviks to do the job
@@rockysullivan4134 yeah I'm pretty sure they would have had bigger things to worry about rather than kill a powerless former tsar and the rest of his family who aren't even in the country anymore
@@EAMCFC The Bolshevik revolution was still hanging in the balance into the 1920's. Lenin very determinedly eliminated all threats to his regime. Do you think he would have allowed a former Tsar and potential focus of counter terrorism live?
Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on us!! Save us, O Lord.
Amen!
Everytime I hear anything about the family it's heartbreaking. Why couldn't they live and have them get their point across.
They thought that they'd wipe their names and memory from the people's lives and the world, but they have failed, for now they Live in our hearts minds and the world knows theirs names, and we shall never forget
Russian history is fascinating

i'm months late seeing the video, but now i'm feeling really christmassy even though it's june. it's a lovely video, thanks so much for sharing it.
I'm a late viewer, too.
So so sad...gosh...😶💔
Such a beautiful AND loving family
I actually love the song that “Olga” sings in the movie. That was a GREAT movie btw! It was a shame that “bratty” little Tsar Peter put in place that women could never be Empresses again. I believe if my history serves me right, it was because of Empress Catherine The Great? Now if that hadn’t of happened (and I remember reading Nicholas II approaching the Duma about Olga because of Alexei’s health) Olga would have become Empress of All the Russias etc ect and I think would have made a GREAT Empress because she of all of them KNEW what was happening in Russia and I believe she would have made sweeping changes....just my thoughts
Russia had been run by Czarinas in the past. If Czar Paul could introduce a new law to change that( only because he resented his mother . He was so bad his own men killed him.) why couldn't it be changed back? There was precident for female rulers. If Czar Paul had only daughters, I wonder if he would have changed the law?
So why couldn't Nicholas II just undo the change Paul made?
And yes, Olga was wise & she loved Russia. She would have been a wonderful Czarina Reignant.
Much of Russia was just plain sick and tired of the monarchy. She never would have made it to the throne.
Catherine (II) the Great's son was Tsar Paul, not Peter. He did not like his mother, ergo, no future Empress/Tsarina Regnants for Russia.
Previously, Peter the Great's successor was his wife, who became Empress Catherine I, and Empress Elizabeth (who overthrew Tsar Ivan VI) was his daughter.
Скорбим и молимся
И вновь скорбим
Какую Русь , Россию
Потеряли
Теперь вернём ее едва ли
Прости нас Государь
Прости .....
The Royal family looks nice but the Czar Nicholas II was pretty ruthless, hence his nickname Bloody Nicholas.
Last Christmas was sad because the Tsar's family spent it in Siberia far from the world in which they lived before They were sad from our perspective because in less than half a year the entire tsar's family suffered a masculine death from the year of the Bolsheviks being brutally murdered
In my opinion, however, these were the most family holidays Each member of the Tsar's family prepared gifts for individual family members There were no expensive gifts in the style of Faberge eggs, but there were modest gifts made by hand from the heart
Rest in eternal peace God bless the Tsar Family Robert from Poland😢😢😢😢😢😢😢🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Feel happy dear Russians, they live in glory in their heavenly abode. Although we lost them too early, the Universe treasures them as jewels.
Молите Бога о нас,царственные мученики!

Really heartbreaking. Greatings from Germany.

Excellent, very well done.
Many thanks! It means a lot to hear your positive feedback! Have a wonderful New Year!
I have seen Moskow and St Petersburg...and was amazed by the beauty of the palaces and churches there...i wonder how the tsar and family live...
Thankyou for this movie.
Thank you for watching!
A very moving video of the family's last Christmas 🎄. At least they were all together ❤.
Such a tragic story😭. Nicholas did not want to be tsar. He eventually abdicated. Alexei was so ill with severe Hemophilia B inherited from his great grandmother Queen Victoria that he would not have survived too long past adolescence. Excuse my lack of knowledge, but was the Romanov Imperial family not a threat to the Bolsheviks? Would they not have adjusted to private life? I believe they would have adjusted to private life. For example, the tsar's sister, Olga, found refuge with her husband in Ontario, Canada where she led a peaceful life out of public view. The Romanov family need not have been executed. What horrible waste. What horrific suffering. May God bless and keep them in His loving embrace. RIP🙏. Love💖, from Canada.
P.S. Tobolsk, Siberia, is a beautiful, historic little city.
Hi, Eva! Yes, the Romanov Imperial family could have easily adjusted to private life, but they would never do so unless they were sure that it was their people's will to do so. That is, they still believed, and they were, right, that it was just a minority of the vast Russian population that wanted a political change, and therefore, they would never abandon their duties as rulers of Russia unless the people wanted them to. They had a very strong sense of responsibility before their people and God.
@@RomanovRoyalMartyrs Thank you. Given time, I believe they would have understood that private life was God's and the people's will. The Bolshevik Revolution notwithstanding, social and political change was inevitable with the coming of the "modern" era. The Romanovs weren't given the chance to adjust, tragically.
According some: Lenin's brother was executed by Nikolas's father. Lenin wanted revenge and he was severly ill, so he made decision to took his revenge. On the other hand, they were figurhead of the Imperial Russia, they never could be only private, they embodied Russia.
I understand the the family petitioned the English monarchy for asylum, but were rejected.
Have a blessed day everyone,🤩🤩🙏🙏🙏
And you!!!!!! 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

亡くならずに生きていたらどんな人生を辿ったのか？
I had just been reading up on how they spent their last Christmas! You read my mind! Or vice versa :)
That's so wonderful to know, Millie! And did you enjoy the video then? Our best wishes for a most wonderful New Year, hopefully with fewer trials this time!
Beautiful and terribly sad thankyou for this video 💜
I Neva had any interest in this family.but listening to the event of their final breath it makes me so very sad.they were a handsome family.they died together.so tragic.
in case anyone is wondering, the children fell sick with measles (in Tobolsk, I think) so Alexandra had their heads shaved. It had something to do with how measles was treated
It breaks my heart every time I read my book and watch videos those poor children 5 innocent lives taken so cruelly
Olga had her hair cut short when she had typhoid in 1901 Tatiana also had her head shaved too in 1913 when she had typhoid
Thanks. Was wondering.
Christmas Eve is celebrated by the Russian orthodox on 6 January and Christmas Day is 7 January
What I still find astounding about the behaviour of the Royal Family, was their utter disregard for the realities of the revolutionary events surrounding them. Any rational actor in their invidious position would have fled Russia at the first opportunity, and done so by any means possible. That such opportunities were forgone more than once beggars belief.
My hear breaks hearing this story how sad😢
Thanks

Is breaking my heart
Very good and prof job!
What a great 👍 loving g ,caring and religious family....had they not been so brutally murdered, they would have proved an asset to Russia. This historical information must be circulated among the new Russian generation.
Rest in Peace Famílie Romanoff
