*PLEASE WATCH IN HIGH QUALITY*

Hello, everyone.

As many have gathered from my previous videos, I really love Tudor England. But, before that obsession kicked in, Russian history reigned supreme. (No pun intended.) So, in light of that, I decided to make a tribute to the last Imperial family of Russia...who were brutally murdered on the night of July 16, 1918 as a result of the Russian Revolution. Their remains were doused in acid, burned, and then buried in a pit deep within the Siberian forest. Tsar Nicholas II, his wife Alexandra and their five children Olga, Tatiana, Marie, Anastasia and Alexei were declared martyrs of the Russian-Orthodox Church.

I didnt use any fancy effects on this video because the meaning was what really mattered to me...I'm sorry about the shortness, as well. The song was too beautiful for me to change! :)

~Thank you for watching, and COMMENTS/RATINGS ARE GREATLY APPRECIATED!~ 

Music: Burning the Past by Harry Gregson-Williams (from Kingdom of Heaven soundtrack)

Footage:

Nicholas and Alexandra
The Lost Prince
Kingdom of Heaven
Romanov home-video footage
Russian Ark trailer

(THANK YOU TO FROZENTEARS.ORG FOR THE CLIPS!)

P.S. Vegas and I are having some relationship issues. We'll work through it...but in the meantime, I wanted to go back to dear old WMM. :) New vids a plenty coming soon!

  • @american1476 I thought the Collapse of the Soviet Union in 91 was the Czar's revenge. The ultimate revenge. Instead of destroying the Soviet government let the government dstroy itself from the inside.

  • Murdered by Bolshevik jews

  • @latinlime97 History channel i'm sure has a documentary on Nicholas II and his children.

  • You have to understand the time in which this was perpertated, you didn`t leave anyone alive in case people who were loyal to the family gathered around him/her and made a bid for power. Besides, tens of thousandsof peasants died from extreme poverty while the Romanovs lived high off the Hog with no concern whatsoever for theor " people ".

  • I mean, even the Mafia has rules against going after your enemy's family.

  • Not a big fan of kings or emperors but I must say this, ANYBODY, and I mean ANYBODY who murders an entire family is either a gangster or a terrorist. Enough said.

  • whoever killed them should be afraid and there kids and there kids kids and so fourth

    because what they did was sick i love the history about them and somone reason love them i dont no y i just do

  • Excellent job!

  • you are awesome whoever you are! you make videos i want to make...

  • Is there some kind of movie on this?

    Because the other day i got a book on Anastasia and I am kinda obsessed as well so if there is a movie that would be awesome to watch.
