The best historical war movie I've ever seen and I dare say it was far better than the Hollywood garbage about Napoleon! The environment, the uniforms, the weapons!! Everything in the movie was incredible and I could barely tell when it was CGI, very well done and congratulations to the director!
@@astrodoops They won't accept it. Modern Russia is not the Soviet Union, when a division of soldiers was used for filming and the next Sergei Bondarchuk has not yet been born in Russia (by the way, his son, Fyodor, is a pale shadow of his father both as a person and as a director). I tell you this as a Russian living in Russia. 🤔 Like any feature film, this one also has historical inaccuracies. In Russia they say "I'm an artist, that's how I see it" - this concerns how some directors film, making changes to the picture that distort many things, including historical facts.
A bit of history) Emperor Alexander 1, according to this film, is the emperor who died in Taganrog, was involved in the plans of the conspirators who killed his father, Paul 1. He did not want his father to die, but after learning that he was still killed, he blamed himself for what happened for the rest of his life. An interesting fact is that in the last years of his life he often spoke of his intention to abdicate and "retire from the world", which after his unexpected death in Taganrog gave rise to the legend of "elder Fyodor Kuzmich". According to this legend, it was not Alexander who died and was then buried in Taganrog, but his double. Later, in the 1830s and 1840s, a legend appeared that Alexander, allegedly tormented by remorse (as an accomplice to the murder of his father), staged his death far from the capital and began a wandering, hermit life under the name of elder Fyodor Kuzmich (died January 20, 1864 in Tomsk. This legend appeared already during the life of the Siberian elder and became widespread in the second half of the XIX century.
Love that close up shot of that pistol being fired, the flint hitting the hammer, sparks hitting the pan, a bright flash followed by a concussive BOOM! This movie really made the weapons feel like characters.

A great movie!!!! a Bit difficult to follow due many participans. Photography is very well done, good oversight in storyline, and the militairy aspect; the effect of grapeshot is impressive. The Hollywoon movie Napoleon is childplay in comparisson with this movie.
This movie is well done but it's hard to follow due to its plot not matching the reality. This movie was funded by the money from the state so the plot tries to follow the agenda that makes the Tzar's action more merciful and understandable while the Decembrists' motives seem vague and kind of chaotic, which is a shame considering how well this movie is made in technical terms.
How is it "weak in terms of plot"? I found it complex and thrilling. It is subtle and pervasive and therefore deeply convincing in terms of motive and character. The plot is the first attempted Color Revolution and attempted Regime Change Op by the West of its natural superior and only global super-power, Russia. That is something that cannot be told in soundbites and therefore has not been dumbed down in the slightest for a slothful and ignorant audience.
@@franzkafka293it is not weak in terms of plot. It’s an excellent movie, nothing overdramatic. Russians have a habit of putting their own down. If this movie was made by Hollywood he would be raving about it. Look at the English comments which praise the movie and Russian comments which demean the film.
There are the orchestral versions of famous Russian modern songs. At least Баста - Сансара ruclips.net/video/aiCL0-U9WxI/видео.htmlsi=BxAXR6D8R0gWKsbU and Наутилус Помпилиус - Прогулки на воде. ruclips.net/video/o-Mrbt_QHd8/видео.htmlsi=IeRRqB4JQzG0YoU1
Technically it is well done by any measure: camera POV, panoramic sweeps, close ups, lightings, shadows and mis-en-scene. It is a visual feast as well as an audio delight.
Wow! What an amazing film! I loved the incredible cinematography and the amazing attention to detail, plus the acting was also superb. I'll be watching this one again--and again.
Russia is such an interesting nation with a very interesting history. I'm glad such a well-made movie could shine some light on a lesser known(to me and possibly 'the west') historical event of such drama and importance.
Finnaly, the film with English subtitles. I wanted to watch this film for a long time, but I didn't undferstand the weird english subtitles, and now I can watch the film in all its glory
I don't know if you'd do any requests but another russian gem we can't watch for similar reasons as this movie is the sovereign servant, do you have any ideas on where to find an english subbed version or a have a way to upload one here? No problems if the answer is a no
This film is particularly fascinating to me, my ancestors were white Russian nobility from the Chernihiv region of Ukraine. Mikhail Lvovich Slezkin my great-great-great-grandfather 1819 - 1877 and his son Lev Mikailovich Slezkin 1855 - 1928, my great-great-grandfather ended their careers with the rank of lieutenant general in the Imperial Army. I came upon it accidentally, and funnily enough they also spent their early formative years in France before attending a military academy in St. Petersburg. My great-great aunt was a lady-in-waiting for the last Tsarina.

This mutiny of young dreamers was just an iceberg top of the huge negotiations inside of Russian elite groups. You can hear in the movie that Konstantin sat in Warsaw and St.Petersburg elite was afraid he will bfing his Polish friends to the capital.
Amazing work. Putting subtitles to Russia shows. One request would you be able to get Saladin The Conquer series from trt with English subtitles apart from episode 1 it's unavailable with English subtitles. Ill look at rest of your videos soon. You need a thanks option $
This is an excellent movie even though it’s not accurate I love it surely better than the new Napoleon because atleast it a realistic, entertaining, based on actual true events, and has great action. The grapeshot scene is excellent as it correctly portrays how cannons work rather than exploding which is not what roundshot does the men sound like they are actually getting hit again this movie is great
@1:49:22 -- When Trubetsky is questioned, "Why did you lead a revolt?" he answered as if he had led, 90 years later, the Easter Rebellion in Dublin. You know, the mere effort to establish a republic against autocracy, even if it fails, will light the way to the future. The leaders of the Easter Rebellion held out for a week, and were summarily executed, without trial, by the English. Here, the revolt was dispersed by the first use of force, and the trials and investigations lasted for the better part of a year. The Decembrists led the way to the assassination of Alexander II, who freed the serfs, and that of Nicholas II, to clear the way for the Bolshevik dictatorship and terror, which lasted until 1991. Martyrs do not always get what they hope for.
So called "Bolshevik terror" or "Red terror" was period of time in 1918-1922, it's an official naming, as a responce of Bolsheviks to multiple violent actions of various opposition groups in summer 1918, which led to Civil war. Only in western propaganda all period up until 1991 is called that way:)
Ваше мнение основано на заблуждении, что властьимущие добровольно отдадут все что было ими захвачено на протяжении веков. НАСТОЯТЕЛЬНО РЕКОМЕНДУЮ проследить причинно следственную связь
@@EvgeniiKrupenin Do you think that England gave up power in Ireland voluntarily? The Easter Rebellion's martyrdom initiated a widespread revolt in Ireland. The martyrdom of the the Decembrists did not. It lead to a model of assassination of emperors.
@19:05 --"By what law have we been sentenced?" The answer Prince Nikolai gave was, The Word of the Emperor is Law. That was the crucial contradiction, in the many pronouncements of Aleksandr Pervyi -- he wanted a constitutional regime, but intended to retain un-constitutional power in his hands. It sounds strange to us today to have someone say, "The highest will" and mean the Word of the Emperor, but "All-highest" was the standard term to refer to the tsar.
Until the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the USA, Kings were anointed by God to rule. It was by God's will, and God is infallible, that a person was born a King, a peasant (serf, different than a peasant), or a criminal. The USA declared forever that ALL MEN ARE CREATED EQUAL and that ended thousands of years of Royal Rules. What would Russia have become if the Decembrists had succeeded??? Would the revolution that changed Rusia and the World have happened? Would Lenin have succeeded in his communist goals???
@@sjb3460 Yep instead the USA made billionaires their kings and made people even less equal and then started wars all around the world and putting their military bases in almost every country. They also then overthrew a bunch of governments and facilitated coups. Resulting in millions of innocent deaths around the world. USA USA USA
@sjb3460 1. Good that you mention that USA told only about MEN (nowadays it is somehow forgotten). But you also forgot, that they meant actually not even all men… no, not even all white men (hello Irish) :D They told only about small bunch of very specific group of men. From this point of view, in most kingdoms people had more right than in USA. Actually even in 20 century people in US had less rights than most people in Europe in 19, 18 and 17 centuries. 2. De facto first communist is Gracchus Babeuf, in is late 18 century, France. So, it is complicated to discuss what would happens. From one side revolution of 1917 directly have roots in this events. 1825 not gone, arrived several waves of revolutionists (main wave is 1860s) which in result born Lenin. But this is only one side, from my opinion not important. Who really cares about constitution and some "rights"? It is fiction which is irrelevant for life of 99,99% of people. Give nothing. From another side, Lenin build communism. And communism it is mainly about different things: economical system, real equality of people (don’t tell me fairy tales, that me and Bill Gates are equal, I’m dust, while he is God from Olympus), about property. So, even if revolution happened in 1825, unlikely it could cancel attempts of communistic revolution. Like nobody canceled it nowadays. If someone will propose it to me now, I’m will support, why not. But if you ask me, what I prefer: constitution with parliament/president or monarchy without any constitution or main law - I don’t care, anything, it is literally irrelevant.
@@juliap.5375 yes, but the idea has to start somewhere. you're overlaying the culture of today with the concept of 200 years ago. And now, we're "woke" and down some rabbit hole. "all men" was the first step away from King's divine Right of Rule. Then, more steps.
Better watch the series "Union of Salvation. The time of anger." Basically, people didn't like the movie. You just can't fit that much information into 2 hours. Even 8 episodes of one hour is not enough for this topic.
great film! I struggled to follow who were the good guys. I will rewatch and brush up on my history knowledge. All i know is the "Whites" - Officers were correct, but as soon as I saw the basillica under construction in St Petersburg, I knew the Tsar would win. I saw a few history videos on the subject. The film did a great job confusing me on not knowing who was who. I was verily entertained throughout! Bravo!!

@@delusionalcity I translated from a version with Polish lyrics, it wasn't perfect but definitely more understandable than english versions online. First version I made had some mistakes but I had a Russian friend who helped me and corrected them.
I cannot fathom what their plan was. It seems absurdist in execution. What is also weird is how sympathetic the Tsars are portrayed as. Good music and brilliant cinematography. The time-cuts were an interesting device certainly.
A day before the start of the uprising, the gendarmerie arrested the head of the Southern Society, Pavel Pestel. The Decembrists decided to prevent the troops and the Senate from taking the oath of office to the new emperor. The rebellious troops were to occupy the Winter Palace and the Peter and Paul Fortress, the royal family was planned to be arrested and, under certain circumstances, killed. Prince Sergei Trubetskoy was elected to lead the uprising. After that, it was planned to demand that the Senate publish a nationwide Manifesto proclaiming the "destruction of the former government" and the establishment of a provisional revolutionary government. It was supposed to make Count M. M. Speransky and Admiral N. S. Mordvinov its members (later they became members of the Decembrist trial). The deputies had to approve a new basic law - the constitution. If the Senate had not agreed to publish the people's manifesto, it was decided to force him to do so. The manifesto contained several points: the establishment of provisional revolutionary governments
But their slowness allowed the emperor to gather enough strength and close them in a ring. I personally was in St. Petersburg and I can say for myself if they had started acting immediately, seized fortresses and set up barricades in the streets. Then the battle would have turned into many battles of 300 Spartans. The streets are narrow and the blocks are square. Plus, the Peter and Paul Fortress has an ideal view of the winter palace. They would have lasted at least a day. And at night, riots might have started and everything would have gone downhill.

It’s true. The punishment for what did was quartering but they were hanged which is much less painful and many of them were either imprisoned or exiled. The “dictator” in the group was eventually pardoned by Nicholas’s son and even got back his title. I don’t think the Romanovs were overtly cruel esp when compared to the Bolsheviks.
For all the liberal Russians who hate Russia and Ukraine supporters, a country that has been artificially created by Lennin, this movie is far better than than Napoleon which had a 200 million dollar budget and still a huge flop. This is the reality, Russians make better movie with far less budget. I want more Russian movies with subtitles and thanks to this channel.
@@peterveld6515If you support Ukraine, you support the modern Nazi Ukrainian government. And by default, you are against Donbass. (The fairy tale that there is no Nazism in Ukraine is not necessary. I have been saving all posts and statements of hatred and Russophobia towards Russia and Donbass by Ukraine since 2013) And therefore you support Nazism, and this automatically makes you a hater of Russia, because Russia is against Nazism.
This looks good and all. But there's something missing. Just like western modern media the acting feels hollow. They play their characters like they are robots without feeling, just following a program. Look to the english tv series (Hornblower) for an example in what acting should look like in my opinion.
1:57:37 Why would you bring a child to an interogation? There was said a moment (The Romanov Documentary) where Nikoolai asked his son, the future Alexander II, what would he have done to the Decembrist? Alexander said to have replied that he would forgive them

МУЖИКИ В ФОРМЕ!!!
если бы именно этот фильм был снят Голливудом, вы бы были в восторге от него. мы знаем, что русские - самые ненавидящие себя существа в мире.
@@franzkafka293it is not weak in terms of plot. It’s an excellent movie, nothing overdramatic. Russians have a habit of putting their own down. If this movie was made by Hollywood he would be raving about it. Look at the English comments which praise the movie and Russian comments which demean the film.

It's so much better than the Napoleon film
The scenography of this movie is just amazing.
this movie has a good soundtrack :)
There are the orchestral versions of famous Russian modern songs. At least Баста - Сансара

and Наутилус Помпилиус - Прогулки на воде.

Well done! Great movie. It's good to see that the Russian tradition of making real good historical movies is still alive and kicking.
When did the communists in Russia ever make any truthful historical movies? The Americans or British never made any.
Wow! What an amazing film! I loved the incredible cinematography and the amazing attention to detail, plus the acting was also superb. I'll be watching this one again--and again.
Russia is such an interesting nation with a very interesting history. I'm glad such a well-made movie could shine some light on a lesser known(to me and possibly 'the west') historical event of such drama and importance.
Thank you for the wonderful upload. Been searching for years download with good English subtitle.
Finnaly, the film with English subtitles. I wanted to watch this film for a long time, but I didn't undferstand the weird english subtitles, and now I can watch the film in all its glory
Excellent idea to post this ,,, wonderful movie, subtitles help to appreciate it. Thanks
Wow, at last I'll be able to watch this movie!
Thanks 🙏

Actually it is TV series (8 episodes by 50 mins) compiled in short movie.
A high quality film. Thanks for uploading. Superb casting, photography, amazing scenes.
What a tale and so well told. Bravo.
Grande film! I film russi sono meravigliosi nei costumi, nella recitazione, nei movimenti delle grandi masse.
Thank you so much, I've been looking for this since i saw the decemberist grapeshot video years ago! 🙇🏼♂️🙇🏼♂️
I don't know if you'd do any requests but another russian gem we can't watch for similar reasons as this movie is the sovereign servant, do you have any ideas on where to find an english subbed version or a have a way to upload one here? No problems if the answer is a no
Same!
I've only seen little clips of this. So glad you posted it!
OH MY GOD, ENGLISH SUBTITLES, GOD BLESS YOU
This film is particularly fascinating to me, my ancestors were white Russian nobility from the Chernihiv region of Ukraine. Mikhail Lvovich Slezkin my great-great-great-grandfather 1819 - 1877 and his son Lev Mikailovich Slezkin 1855 - 1928, my great-great-grandfather ended their careers with the rank of lieutenant general in the Imperial Army. I came upon it accidentally, and funnily enough they also spent their early formative years in France before attending a military academy in St. Petersburg. My great-great aunt was a lady-in-waiting for the last Tsarina.
Its spelt Chernogov in English

The Battle scenes are really fucking impressive in this movie
Thanks for the great translation
Great film, thanks for such great work bringing to an English speaking audience
realy nice film imo. Shame that it didnt do well at its box office. thx for uploading with english subs and good quality
success at the box office was only in those countries that translate films from other countries. The fucking monopoly of the West. For some reason, I can watch English-language movies, Chinese, Hindi with any Russian dubbing. And in the West, this turns out to be a problem.
@@teltos6817why do you watch? Dubbing must be banned in Russia. Dubbing is what’s destroying Russian move industry. And I hate dubbing, how do you guys watched dubbed films? Doesn’t it bother you when the lips don’t match the words?
@@prodigiii712 What about freedom of speech? Or is banning culture from other countries a democracy? You can watch dubbed news, but politics does not allow movies. This is medieval savagery. Even after watching this film, you can understand that Russians studied French and German at that time.

Свобода это возможность следовать своему предназначению и тебя никто не преследует за это!!! Браво сказано и главное верно!!!

Those people who are against, but do not have an idea, but simply oppose someone, will never succeed. These people had no idea, they were just against the government. They didn't have a plan for what they would do when they achieved their goal. It was stupid.
Согласен это было глупо. Русские либералы сегодня ФБК Навального.
Your remark is only true in relation to the plot of this film. It contains too many historical inaccuracies to judge the real Decembrists by them.
Love this movie, thanks for posting.

J'aime beaucoup cette forme de scénario avec d'impressionnantes performance des acteurs 16.20.minute. J'apprends a écouter le russe a lire l'anglais car je suis Canadien français d'Amérique du Nord côté Est. Autre chose. En 1825 l'Alaska était russe et en 1863, St Petersbourg l'empereur a tenté de vendre l'Alaska pour 7 millions de dollars. Après discussion le congrès ne voulait pas cette terre aride désertique et froide , oui le congrès américain a signé l'achat de Alaska.
В этом фильме Николай просто святой какой-то..!!!😢
потому как в первые дни правления сам обкакался что его сметут и не успел наломать дров.

thanks, great movie
bad timing, bad planning, bad leadership and bad luck is all that I can say about this revolution
This mutiny of young dreamers was just an iceberg top of the huge negotiations inside of Russian elite groups.
You can hear in the movie that Konstantin sat in Warsaw and St.Petersburg elite was afraid he will bfing his Polish friends to the capital.

This is an excellent movie even though it’s not accurate I love it surely better than the new Napoleon because atleast it a realistic, entertaining, based on actual true events, and has great action. The grapeshot scene is excellent as it correctly portrays how cannons work rather than exploding which is not what roundshot does the men sound like they are actually getting hit again this movie is great
Joli film sur une histoire violente! Dommage, je n'ai rien comprit aux dialogues! Pas de traduction possible... Mais beau film quand même! Stéph.
@1:49:22 -- When Trubetsky is questioned, "Why did you lead a revolt?" he answered as if he had led, 90 years later, the Easter Rebellion in Dublin.
You know, the mere effort to establish a republic against autocracy, even if it fails, will light the way to the future.
The leaders of the Easter Rebellion held out for a week, and were summarily executed, without trial, by the English.
Here, the revolt was dispersed by the first use of force, and the trials and investigations lasted for the better part of a year.
The Decembrists led the way to the assassination of Alexander II, who freed the serfs, and that of Nicholas II, to clear the way for the Bolshevik dictatorship and terror, which lasted until 1991.
Martyrs do not always get what they hope for.
So called "Bolshevik terror" or "Red terror" was period of time in 1918-1922, it's an official naming, as a responce of Bolsheviks to multiple violent actions of various opposition groups in summer 1918, which led to Civil war. Only in western propaganda all period up until 1991 is called that way:)
Ваше мнение основано на заблуждении, что властьимущие добровольно отдадут все что было ими захвачено на протяжении веков.

@@EvgeniiKrupenin Do you think that England gave up power in Ireland voluntarily? The Easter Rebellion's martyrdom initiated a widespread revolt in Ireland. The martyrdom of the the Decembrists did not. It lead to a model of assassination of emperors.
emperors do notget it either but eventually common folk do but all pay with blood except the bankers
Большевики захватили власть извне. Просто бандиты с наемниками уничтожили государство, и поставили культуру на грань исхода.
Finally, an Englisjh sub!❤
@19:05 --"By what law have we been sentenced?"
The answer Prince Nikolai gave was, The Word of the Emperor is Law. That was the crucial contradiction, in the many pronouncements of Aleksandr Pervyi -- he wanted a constitutional regime, but intended to retain un-constitutional power in his hands. It sounds strange to us today to have someone say, "The highest will" and mean the Word of the Emperor, but "All-highest" was the standard term to refer to the tsar.
Until the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the USA, Kings were anointed by God to rule. It was by God's will, and God is infallible, that a person was born a King, a peasant (serf, different than a peasant), or a criminal. The USA declared forever that ALL MEN ARE CREATED EQUAL and that ended thousands of years of Royal Rules.
What would Russia have become if the Decembrists had succeeded??? Would the revolution that changed Rusia and the World have happened? Would Lenin have succeeded in his communist goals???
Это Особенности построения романо- германской (континентальной) системы права.
@@sjb3460 Yep instead the USA made billionaires their kings and made people even less equal and then started wars all around the world and putting their military bases in almost every country. They also then overthrew a bunch of governments and facilitated coups. Resulting in millions of innocent deaths around the world. USA USA USA
@sjb3460
1. Good that you mention that USA told only about MEN (nowadays it is somehow forgotten). But you also forgot, that they meant actually not even all men… no, not even all white men (hello Irish) :D They told only about small bunch of very specific group of men. From this point of view, in most kingdoms people had more right than in USA. Actually even in 20 century people in US had less rights than most people in Europe in 19, 18 and 17 centuries.
2. De facto first communist is Gracchus Babeuf, in is late 18 century, France. So, it is complicated to discuss what would happens. From one side revolution of 1917 directly have roots in this events. 1825 not gone, arrived several waves of revolutionists (main wave is 1860s) which in result born Lenin. But this is only one side, from my opinion not important. Who really cares about constitution and some "rights"? It is fiction which is irrelevant for life of 99,99% of people. Give nothing.
From another side, Lenin build communism. And communism it is mainly about different things: economical system, real equality of people (don’t tell me fairy tales, that me and Bill Gates are equal, I’m dust, while he is God from Olympus), about property. So, even if revolution happened in 1825, unlikely it could cancel attempts of communistic revolution. Like nobody canceled it nowadays. If someone will propose it to me now, I’m will support, why not. But if you ask me, what I prefer: constitution with parliament/president or monarchy without any constitution or main law - I don’t care, anything, it is literally irrelevant.
@@juliap.5375 yes, but the idea has to start somewhere. you're overlaying the culture of today with the concept of 200 years ago. And now, we're "woke" and down some rabbit hole. "all men" was the first step away from King's divine Right of Rule. Then, more steps.
Better watch the series "Union of Salvation. The time of anger." Basically, people didn't like the movie. You just can't fit that much information into 2 hours. Even 8 episodes of one hour is not enough for this topic.
Great movie and upload.
Dazzling, intense...gorgeous and tragic.
Отличный фильм! И чудесное время, хоть и мы были столь разными с французами, но в тоже время такими близкими, жаль это время не вернёшь.

great film! I struggled to follow who were the good guys. I will rewatch and brush up on my history knowledge. All i know is the "Whites" - Officers were correct, but as soon as I saw the basillica under construction in St Petersburg, I knew the Tsar would win.
I saw a few history videos on the subject. The film did a great job confusing me on not knowing who was who. I was verily entertained throughout! Bravo!!
Like in basically all such events, both sides had some piece of truth, some piece of naivity and piece of not truth.
You should definitely brush up on your history)

@@MrEthnicC How in the world did you translate it so well then?
@@delusionalcity I translated from a version with Polish lyrics, it wasn't perfect but definitely more understandable than english versions online. First version I made had some mistakes but I had a Russian friend who helped me and corrected them.
I cannot fathom what their plan was. It seems absurdist in execution. What is also weird is how sympathetic the Tsars are portrayed as. Good music and brilliant cinematography. The time-cuts were an interesting device certainly.
A day before the start of the uprising, the gendarmerie arrested the head of the Southern Society, Pavel Pestel. The Decembrists decided to prevent the troops and the Senate from taking the oath of office to the new emperor. The rebellious troops were to occupy the Winter Palace and the Peter and Paul Fortress, the royal family was planned to be arrested and, under certain circumstances, killed. Prince Sergei Trubetskoy was elected to lead the uprising.
After that, it was planned to demand that the Senate publish a nationwide Manifesto proclaiming the "destruction of the former government" and the establishment of a provisional revolutionary government. It was supposed to make Count M. M. Speransky and Admiral N. S. Mordvinov its members (later they became members of the Decembrist trial).
The deputies had to approve a new basic law - the constitution. If the Senate had not agreed to publish the people's manifesto, it was decided to force him to do so. The manifesto contained several points: the establishment of provisional revolutionary governments
But their slowness allowed the emperor to gather enough strength and close them in a ring. I personally was in St. Petersburg and I can say for myself if they had started acting immediately, seized fortresses and set up barricades in the streets. Then the battle would have turned into many battles of 300 Spartans. The streets are narrow and the blocks are square. Plus, the Peter and Paul Fortress has an ideal view of the winter palace. They would have lasted at least a day. And at night, riots might have started and everything would have gone downhill.

It’s true. The punishment for what did was quartering but they were hanged which is much less painful and many of them were either imprisoned or exiled. The “dictator” in the group was eventually pardoned by Nicholas’s son and even got back his title. I don’t think the Romanovs were overtly cruel esp when compared to the Bolsheviks.
