Nicholas II was the last Tsar of Russia. Here are some video clips from different archives. Included is also a clip of his visit in Finland 1915. That was only 3 years before the murder of his entire family.
dalmo oliveria to me it really doesn't matter if he was a Christian a hindu atheist or muslim what really matters is if he was a good ruler which is debatable he did do some good but he also made a lot of bad choices i do think he was a good person and i think most people agree that what happened to him and his family was horrible
There's something so interesting about seeing him on video. I've read so much about his life and his legacy, and it's just so strange to get a sense of how he walked and what he was really like. My favorite of the Romanov tsars :)
This dude must be the coolest looking modern emperor ever. The go to persona for the image of a suave imperial king/emperor, past, present, or future. Coolest walk ever. -PLUS extremely photogenic. Compare him to other royals of today and of the past and this Man is just striking. He, with the exception of his family, outshines almost everyone he takes a picture alongside. One can only wish to be so naturally photogenic. It's a shame what happened to his lineage, a persons descendants are sacred, and those revolutionists spared not one, a spiritual tragedy for all who've endured this. May God and the Universe remember and renew them some when in time. God bless all.
I remember watching clips like these 50-55 years ago, before they did speed correction. They were fast and jerky. Now, they look much more natural Thanks!
Great music, inspiring and majestic. Nicholas was weak and autocratic but Lenin and Stalin were evil, probably not the sort of leaders Marx would have wanted. Terrible fate for the lovely Grand Duchesses and the handsome son of the Tsar.
Very interesting video. Why not send a copy to the National Film Library of Bologna, it would be very interesting to see it restored. They are famous all over the world, for example they have restored all Charlot's silent films.
Nicholas was called "weak as water," I believe by King Edward XII, and he was his own relation through marriage at least. a good man who never should have been anything other than landed gentry. of course, the monarchy, on the whole, had no concept of the real world and the Russian people had a great capacity for suffering, so that is probably what kept the Romanovs going as long as they did.
Just like the British Queen is German and her husband a prince of Greece and Denmark. Royalty is complicated. What matters is what country they are born in and what nationality they believe themselves to be. Nicholas was a Russian at heart and loved Russia. That is enough. And his ancestors ruled Russia for Centuries
Mon Dieu qu'il était beau cet homme. La beauté slave dans toute sa splendeur. Un regard chaud et tendre, des épaules larges et un visage fin. Une beauté ce mec.....
They must have been the most photographed and filmed of the day. There is a ton of footage and stills.Sure he was bad at his job, but that was not the children's fault.
hey, first told you that that what i said was subject of a crazy moment, i support monarchy in russia, but with its actual territories, not with poland , ukraine, or finland, but alexander II was very popular right? sorry if i hurted you, are u finnish?
Also the ROYAL RUSIAN FAMILY was very good and very religious and tried very hard to assist the Rusian people and the RUSIAN Church .thus it cannot be said that the Family was NOT very good ❤😢
The Romanovs would of evolved into something like the British royal family and would have had democracy anyway. Communism and mass genocide shouldn't of been the cost for this.
Tthe british spies paid traitors in Russia to finish of the holy Tsars. So sad what happened but russia suffered and now the revival of the chrisitan empire is back. Hurrah
He was not very popular in Finland. Russians and Finns had developped quite different ideas about the relationship between Finland and Russia. Subordinating Finnish governmental organs to Russian ones was perceived as unconstitutional in Finland. However, Finland's constitution was never specifically ratified anywhere and as ultranationalism was rampant in Russia, I suppose it was only a matter of time before they interfered with what came close to a mere real union between Finland and Russia.
I think he was quite popular in Finland (the Tsar) he gave finland the highest self-government in history prior to their independence, they were an state inside an state. I will quite have liked the russian empire to have lasted as a democratic, parliamentary, and democratic germany with its 1914 borders, but russia ruined all opressing them ( with the excpetion of finland.)
Sorry, but I no for a fact that Nicholas II was a subject of hatred amongst the Finns. The modern Finnish state was created as a grand principality by Alexander I and received autonomy, which increased in the 1860's. Nicholas II was a weak ruler and Russia was developping into a unitary state, and would not have Finland being considered a state in its own right by the Finns. The issue was that the Finns would not recognize their Diet being subjected to Russian legislation in any aspects.
@Dave Ad ...Finally! It's good to hear from someone who has a clue what the hell went on. When the Tsar refused Rothschilds proposal, Nathan Mayer Rothschild went balistic and swore revenge not only on the Tsar but Tsarist Russia. That was the event that would lead up to the First World War, allthough they did attempt the Decembrist Revolution in 1825 and another one in 1905
@Adolfo ...Most of the riches went to Jacob Schiff in New York. He was the one who hosted Trotsky in New York and made sure his puppet,{Woodrow Wilson} got him to Russia in time to help foment the revolution along with 20 million in gold from Schiff to fund it.
It's allright. I expect few people know much about Finland's history. And yes, I'm Finnish. Alexander II was very popular in Finland. During his reign Finland was alllowed to act as if though it were in real union with Russia, even though his intention was to safeguard Russian interests. It was pretty much a coincidence that he should have become as popular in Finland as he turned out.
The order to liquidate the Tsar came from New York banker Jacob Schiff who was actually controling Russia until their chosen one, Freemason and Jesuit Priest Joseph Stalin came to power.
@@SpecialWeaponsDalek ....Jacob Schiff was not an alien. He was easily the most powerful man in America and actually hosted Leon Trotsky in New York up until the Russian revolution, at which time he gave him 20 million in gold and made sure he had all the paperwork to get him to Russia.
Look the fastuose & luxury live they used to have while the russian people was starved,no wonder me that it was a revolution to take off all this unfair way to live on coast of the poor russian people!!!
While the RUSIAN people WERE starved, but Tzar Nicholas 2 tried very hard, and very much to assist the RUSIAN population, and what he inherited from his Father was not of his likeing and he often expressed the desire to keep the Family as close to earth/nature as possible, but it is too dang bad that the Royal family was MURDERED by the communist revolutionaries under the direction of lenin and the communists, and trotskey ❤😢
