As someone who’s been interested in the Romanovs since I was ten, this is one of the absolute best documentaries I’ve ever seen about Nicholas II and his family. Well done!
I've never had a huge interest in the Russian Revolution, but this was maybe the best series History Hit has ever done. Phenomenal experts with some truly captivating retelling of events. Bravo!
you guys should post more about the Romanovs, I'm only 16 and I love history mostly about Royals and it would be amazing to watch More about the Romanovs I love reading about history too, and I watch you guys all the time.
Great documentary as usual! Also enjoying the visual shorthand used for each expert, linking them to the person they are talking about: especially using the same background for The Romanovs and Rasputin, just with less light and colour for the latter.
Outstanding documentary. Well organized, with dedicated experts. A thorough and thoughtful breakdown of the key players and their motivations. Fascinating, thank you.
Many thanks and many blessings to one and all at History Hit for producing and providing this podcast on RUclips! Is it just me, or have the Russian people seen more than their fair share of sorrow and suffering‽.. As outrageous as this may seem, would it be asking for too much for History Hit to produce a program about Boris Leonidovich Pasternak, the publication of his novel Doctor Zhivago, the movie and television programs inspired by the novel, and its contemporary literary significance??...
The murder of the Czar's daughters was utterly barbaric. However, we must remember how the Czar's regime condemned untold thousands of children to die needlessly and unknown in abject poverty.
It was all barbaric. But it stopped a succession claim on the spot. Same for French Revolution. UK got rid of one king and his son came back a couple decades later. Its why Puton hides all the deposed dictators. One day they may return and he will have them under his thumb.
@@kevinpittman2517 thanks for jumping to false conclusions and putting words into my mouth the fact remains that Nicholas made the decision to take Russia into the war and keep Russia in the war and millions died because of it. who do you think is to blame Santa Claus?
Great documentary! I’ve always been drawn to Russian history, both Romanov and Soviet, and continue to find it very interesting. Someone in our family was researching our family tree and turns out an ancestor of mine (I’m assuming some kind of cousin) tutored Nicholas II’s children. Very random, as he was a Yorkshireman. He escaped the revolution and later became a Russian Orthodox monk, I believe. I also discovered I have Jewish ancestry from eastern Europe and Russia. Funny to think one ancestor was helping to educate a dynasty/regime that persecuted my other ancestors!
I have always been interested in the same History and learning the language. After some genetic testing, it turns out that I also have an ancestor or 2 from Russia proper & one of the former Soviet republics.
This is really well done, glad that there’s a channel run by Historians for the purpose of good, real history, not slop entertainment. I appreciate the variety from fun segments on Medieval Peasants w/ Dr. Janega to long, well produced docs like this!
This part of Russian history is so interesting. The end of the Romanovs sometimes seems to be romanticized by some and this was so comprehensive on what really happened. Whatever the case may be, their assassination still seems sad.
A lot has come up to the surface in the last three years since Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. Many Russians learn things about their own country they never knew. You’re not the only one, but self education is what I would recommend to you as well… ❤
If you're in London, visit The Three Johns pub in Islington where Lenin and Trotsky met and the Mensheviks and Bolsheviks split. Not as a pilgrimage but out of curiosity.
On some things RUclips plays hardly any commercials then on other things they play every 5 minutes it's almost like they don't want you to finish watching what you're trying to see like they have something against the topic that's being presented at the moment.
@Hotdog1863 That's what I've been thinking as well. They made it hard to watch the rise of communism, the circumstances that led to it, and what that ideology entails, but we were allowed to watch the violent parts attentively. When you realise that this only happens to the people without enough disposable income to afford a premium YT account, it is a really ugly form of manipulation.

Most historians identify Trotsky, not Stalin or even Lenin as the principal organizer of the October 1917 coup. Trotsky persuaded the Petrograd Soviet and the All-Union Congress of Soviets to form a seven man "Military Revolutionary Committee
@@loomoo7888It was a coup d'état disguised as a revolution... Leo Trotsky received a huge amount of gold from the Wall Street bankers to overthrow the Tsar... curious fact, Leo Trotsky is not his real name.
When you read books on the Romanovs, always be sure the author is using primary source documents, and be proficient in Russian language….also so so much more is available to historians at GARF (the Russian archives) since the fall of the Soviet Union. The Bolsheviks kept every letter written between the Tsar and his family. Diaries that were not burned by the Romanovs in captivity, amazing photo albums each member kept. Each member of the family owned Kodak brownie cameras and were taught to develop them. This gives a glimpse of private life not ordinarily seen and is part of the reason why many have developed strong feelings for this family.
the tsar and his wife really just shows the example of why leaders should be qualified and elected, not just because of status or bloodline. these two would have been happier and more suited to just a normal life with their family, and everything would have been better for themselves and for the Russian people.
Imperial Russia never ended. It is just as Imperialistic now as it was then, and the Soviet period did absolutely nothing to dampen their imperialist tendancies.
Well it definitely did, let me guess, you’ve never been there, let alone lived there. Talking out of your backside, especially with regard to your comment re communism, it had an enormous impact on almost every area of Russian life.
I was writing my essay about this period when there was a huge explosion. I freaked out. Adelaide is where it happened. A movie set about a plane crash. Wow
@@BlueTurretGaming Sad part is most Americans wouldn't know a commie even if he took out his family and country. They elected Trump so believe whatever a grifter says so long as they're draped in an American flag and carrying a bible.
The pictures of Nicholas, Alexandra & their kids are so haunting.. The Russian people in Surfdom look absolutely miserable & suffering in pain. I feel like Lenin had a personal beef with the Romanovs for executing his brother. He was smart enough to know how to do it and seized the moment when the time was right and it just so happened that when WWI had broke out, it was the right time for Revolution . I’m not condoning communism and the horrors in which it brought with the Russian people & its neighboring countries
Fabulous graphics, though there ought to be a reference onscreen to each SOURCE.) The prince (~1:40:22) later won a libel suit against a Hollywood studio re Rasputin's murder.
This was very interesting and well done. More like this one, please. However, why was the English Royal Family’s role in denying Nicholas and his family asylum? It was just glossed over as a Parliament decision and bad timing.
At ~2:19:27 the "final days" segment is broached. Famed historian R. Massey reveals some comms between the Tzarina and the czar's supporters -- via faithful peasants -- that are not mentioned here (e.g., arranging their escape).
IF by Imperial Russia you mean an authoritarian dictatorship, yea obviously that remains. If you mean the Romanov Family dynasty... Then no, that's gone. Putin may style himself as a Tzar but he's just a kleptocrat.

Russia has ever been a decent place to live. I don't know why Russia couldn't take a cue from other European counties and formed parliaments to work with the monarchy at a reduced role. Things certainly did not change in a good way at all under communism. They just traded one unsatisfactory situation for an even worse one. The Soviet union fell in the 80's but it wasn't very long before they had Putin in charge running things as if he is a monarch.
He is not monarch. He was elected. I voted for him and my entire family and all friends. He was elected according to constitution. Probably your country has monarch. To establish paliament revolution is necessary. It was revolution in England in 18 century when King of England Charles the First was beheaded. There was revolution in France in 1789 when king of France Loui XVI was beheaded. There were bunch in revoluion in Europe in 1848 etc. Russia also had attempt to make borgous revolution in december of 1825 but it failed and active leaders were hung. Problem was climate and it caused delay in development of capitalism in Russia and establish thick layer of borgous class. Not all European countries got parliament either. Russia had difficulties in medieveal times and 18-19 centuries because of climate, agriculture that produce excessive product to feed elite. Agriculture was main thing in medieval times. And Russia is not on Island like Great Britain. There were attempts to establish parliament in RUssia in 19 century. The most famous one was coup organized by groups of army officers, veterans of Napoleonic wars in December of 1825. But coup was defeated and all active members were put to trial, some were executed. USSR had paliament called Superime soviet where all members were also elected according to constitution.
@@hermi8918 What tsars exactly wanted parliamentary monarchy and who of them were assassinated? Names please and dates of assassination. That's not true. No monarchs in the world ever wanted reducing of their power and establishing or parliamentarism. That's unnatural. Only force, revolutionor coup can force monarches to reduce their power and political influence.
@@AlexanderTch Tsar Alexander II wanted to implement reforms to have a constitutional monarchy, unfortunately a radical Jew killed him... ironically this Tsar was very tolerant with the Jewish community.
Most of the murder story is Yussupov's self aggrandizement to sell his book. The post mortem photo clearly shows a bullet hole right between the eyes. Probably shot by a British agent. Romanov's were too incompetent to pull of his execution.
I'm glad that historians are finally calling what happened at the end of 1917 what it really was, not a popular revolution of mass mobilization but a coup. The Bolsheviks further proved this when Lenin allowed the Constituent Assembly to happen but three a fit when they lost the vote and put the kibosh on it. Joel
Absolutely beautifull photo grahs of the russian royal family I love the photo of Alexandra holding Alex and the 4 daughter Alexandra was the grand daughter of gueen victora when Victoria arranged a marriage she would reach for the book of gotha why over half the royal families of the world come from the house of gotha coburg saxony in fact in 1896 at Nicholas 2 coronation the Cryer cried out concerning Nicholas titles heir to norway to under stand this title which is symbolic you must go to a princess of norway wulfhilda who in 1042 ad married the Duke of saxony son in 1896 the British royal family was called the house of gotha saxony coburg it was later changed after w.w.1 due to its German roots to the house of windsor there are 4 branches of the coburgs norway is the only country in the world who hold the title gueen of the king and gueen of the world easy to document 😊💯👍👌🇨🇦
Hopefully the producers read this. The writing excerpts on this are really annoying. They are white on a light to white background, the red is blurry, the font is too small when viewing on a tv that is less than 10 feet away, and they are on the screen for too short of a time. Please consider people like me who have poor vision for your future videos. BTW, I also object on philosophical grounds -- I watch videos so I don't have to read. I'm still glad this is available, though.
Putin was elected according to constitution. I voted for him, my family voited for him, my friends voted for him. So, if you against him, then you'll deal with myself first.
I vehemently disagree with the lady at 59:35. NO ONE can say with certainty that prayer only produces a "placebo effect" of healing. The opinions in this documentary are only secular viewpoints. I'm a senior citizen now, and there have been so many times in my life where I have witnessed the power of prayer, and many times the subject of the prayer had no idea what was being done to spiritually help them but they recovered when science said that recovery was improbable if not impossible. But of course, you have to believe to receive. It is a matter of faith vs secularism.
A lot of people are scared of what happens when we die and force themselves to believe. I believe when we die that is it. I choose to live the best I can now at 49. I hope their is a higher power. ❤😊
THIS SUBLIMINAL MESSAGE TELLS ME THAT THE INDIVIDUAL CHOSEN BY THE MOST HIGH FROM THE BARRIO STREETS OF LOS ANGELES REALLY IS GOING TO BE THE KING OF THE EARTH.
At least there was a happy ending regarding the Russian aristocrats! Well, it's not a happy ending FOR the aristocracy... but the people getting their justice was a nice change of pace. Nobody pauses when poor kids die, but for some reason we're expected to hold the masses to a higher standard & find the deaths of noble kids as abhorrent? Yeah. Never going to happen.
It's technically not a /misuse/ of the ballet score, but I question whoever decided that overlying spooky sound effects over the Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy at the beginning was the correct direction for this video.
@paulstrife What about the Orthodox revolution, was that one brutal too or just the Jewish one, were the atheist agnostic and rare protestant or catholic ones really nasty as well or just the Jewish one, probably just the Jewish one 🙄 🤮
Nonsense, Giorgia signed an agreement with Russia,which was extremely beneficial for it. Giorgia wasn't a colony, it was a partner. Giorgian people weren't "second class citizens", that's a sheer liy and propaganda
So many people are so quick to judge and condemn the Tsar. If you only had one day to rule as a Tsar you would understand how impossible it is to do so. Just like any world leader. Nicholas II and his Russian government was the last Christian government ruling any country on Earth until the return of Jesus Christ and the Saints which will happen at an unknown and future date. Get that through your thick skulls. Anyone who insults and questions what I have said is already at fault. Don't even think of negativity when reading this. Be gone if you disagree. You're not of the Christian flesh if you disagree. Nicholas II and his family along with their servants died a Martyr's death. Have respect.

The Bolsheviks further proved this when Lenin allowed the Constituent Assembly to happen but three a fit when they lost the vote and put the kibosh on it.

Finally? I learned this in 1996

Absolutely beautifull photo grahs of the russian royal family I love the photo of Alexandra holding Alex and the 4 daughter Alexandra was the grand daughter of gueen victora when Victoria arranged a marriage she would reach for the book of gotha why over half the royal families of the world come from the house of gotha coburg saxony in fact in 1896 at Nicholas 2 coronation the Cryer cried out concerning Nicholas titles heir to norway to under stand this title which is symbolic you must go to a princess of norway wulfhilda who in 1042 ad married the Duke of saxony son in 1896 the British royal family was called the house of gotha saxony coburg it was later changed after w.w.1 due to its German roots to the house of windsor there are 4 branches of the coburgs norway is the only country in the world who hold the title gueen of the king and gueen of the world easy to document 😊💯👍👌🇨🇦
Excelente Exposición Genealógica Histórica !! . Gracias , desde Stgo. de Chile !! .
@francmapu311 thank you
Hopefully the producers read this. The writing excerpts on this are really annoying. They are white on a light to white background, the red is blurry, the font is too small when viewing on a tv that is less than 10 feet away, and they are on the screen for too short of a time. Please consider people like me who have poor vision for your future videos. BTW, I also object on philosophical grounds -- I watch videos so I don't have to read.
I'm still glad this is available, though.
Yeah it was a little hard to read. I was surprised by its presence, because everything until then had been voice over.
All that led to the present Putin and co.... better with a monarchy?
Putin was elected according to constitution. I voted for him, my family voited for him, my friends voted for him. So, if you against him, then you'll deal with myself first.
No ! . ¡ Mejor la Edad de Piedra ! ....... ¡ Que Te Domine , El Gorila más Fuerte !! .
Sounds like Peter Mc Enery did a very good job in "Nicho;as annd Alexandra,
I vehemently disagree with the lady at 59:35. NO ONE can say with certainty that prayer only produces a "placebo effect" of healing. The opinions in this documentary are only secular viewpoints. I'm a senior citizen now, and there have been so many times in my life where I have witnessed the power of prayer, and many times the subject of the prayer had no idea what was being done to spiritually help them but they recovered when science said that recovery was improbable if not impossible. But of course, you have to believe to receive. It is a matter of faith vs secularism.
Hay que Tener Fé . Esto es lo Importante !!. .... No es Necesario , ser : Bueno " o parecerlo ! .
A historian has to rely on empirical evidence. There is no empirical evidence that prayer has measurable medicinal benefits.
A lot of people are scared of what happens when we die and force themselves to believe. I believe when we die that is it. I choose to live the best I can now at 49. I hope their is a higher power. ❤😊
@@CL-vx9dr It’s a matter of perspective.
@@CL-vx9dr Actually, a historian only has to present history as it happened. Anything else is only conjecture.
THIS SUBLIMINAL MESSAGE TELLS ME THAT THE INDIVIDUAL CHOSEN BY THE MOST HIGH FROM THE BARRIO STREETS OF LOS ANGELES REALLY IS GOING TO BE THE KING OF THE EARTH.
Say what you want about Rasputin but he was correct with every prediction presented in this doc...

At least there was a happy ending regarding the Russian aristocrats! Well, it's not a happy ending FOR the aristocracy... but the people getting their justice was a nice change of pace. Nobody pauses when poor kids die, but for some reason we're expected to hold the masses to a higher standard & find the deaths of noble kids as abhorrent? Yeah. Never going to happen.

I always find it hilarious that the mother got blamed for not producing a son when it’s the father determined the sex of the child
🙌🏻🌹 Hahahahahaha they didn't know that even the boy's illness is now treated with a cheap medicine at the pharmacy. Science has advanced my dear
where are the russians? Its all western journalists. Somehow it makes me wondering. But thank you
The house of "Special Purpose" the type of deeply sinister state gangster language that would lead to "Final Solution".
The Lenin part was especially fascinating. The royal historian was jarring & weakest link.
Rasputin and his magicke cucumber...
F.p method of control
I love how these communists gravitate towards a free, right wing, capitalist city, I.e. London, to discuss and plot their lefty, socialist ideals!!!!!

House of special purpose. Point of original source.
Versus , El Domingo Sangriento ! .
Já assitir algumas documentários relatando a situação dos Romanovs.Ás vezes ficava imaginando onde chega a maldade humana.
Senhor tem piedade.😂😂😂😂
It's technically not a /misuse/ of the ballet score, but I question whoever decided that overlying spooky sound effects over the Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy at the beginning was the correct direction for this video.
That song is actually from Swan Lake, a ballet tragedy by Tchaikovsky

Ganz schlechte Synchronisation, interessantes historisches Thema übel dargestellt
The Jewish Bolshevik revolution was brutal. So many consequences since it happened.
If you're going to spew debunked nazi propaganda at least try to make it believable.
@@Crissiey2025don't confuse the nazi with facts.
you know nothing and are parroting the learned response of the ensl;aved
@paulstrife What about the Orthodox revolution, was that one brutal too or just the Jewish one, were the atheist agnostic and rare protestant or catholic ones really nasty as well or just the Jewish one, probably just the Jewish one 🙄 🤮
If you knew anything about history, you would not need to ask.@@lorie76yt
Rasputin was evil and took advantage of Tsarina
Nonsense, Giorgia signed an agreement with Russia,which was extremely beneficial for it. Giorgia wasn't a colony, it was a partner. Giorgian people weren't "second class citizens", that's a sheer liy and propaganda

Basta avec L'IA .
So many people are so quick to judge and condemn the Tsar. If you only had one day to rule as a Tsar you would understand how impossible it is to do so. Just like any world leader. Nicholas II and his Russian government was the last Christian government ruling any country on Earth until the return of Jesus Christ and the Saints which will happen at an unknown and future date. Get that through your thick skulls. Anyone who insults and questions what I have said is already at fault. Don't even think of negativity when reading this. Be gone if you disagree. You're not of the Christian flesh if you disagree. Nicholas II and his family along with their servants died a Martyr's death. Have respect.
Opening music is which piece hy tchaikovsky?
I think Swan Lake?
Caged birds
Misericórdia.Todos executados.Jesus misericordioso.Piedade.Onde chega a maldade Humana.😂🤣😅😂🤣😅
It was all the queen's fault. She was strict, she gave old clothes to Anastasia, she didn't enjoy anything, and she also carried Rasputin's guilt.
Oh ffs. It astounds me that historians to this day do not understand the very history they are trying to cover.
Care to elaborate?
Do you mean the history is not what some random person made you believe without evidence?
Can you enlighten us with your vast knowledge please?
... And all because some Norwegians wanted to go raiding in the 9th/10th century...
Shouldn't this end in 2009 with counter-terrorism operation in Chechnya 'officially' ending?
