All episodes: • The Romanovs. The Hist...
In 1613 The Zemsky Sobor (the National Assembly) adopted a decision to invite Michael Fyodorovich Romanov to become tsar of Russia. This decision was announced in Red Square in front of numerous crowds of people: “Michael Fyodorovich shall be tsar and lord of Muscovy and all the Russian state.” In order to prevent disturbances, Michael Romanov had to take a terrible sin upon his soul - to execute a 3 year-old boy…
The most vivid pages of Russian history and the establishment and consolidation of Russian state power are associated with the eighteen Russian Tsars of the House of Romanov which include such historic names as Peter the Great, Catherine the Great, Nicholas I and Alexanders I, II and III. The dynasty ended with the brutal assassination of the last Tsar, Nicholas II and his family by the Bolsheviks in Ekaterinburg in 1917.
The Romanov dynasty played a hugely important role in world history, and the series highlights the life stories and characters of the tsars, recounting their rise to power and their contribution to the dynasty, their merits and their faults, their achievements and mistakes, their victories and defeats in war.
The series also examines the Russian form of 'Caesarism' as a system of state administration - its advantages and drawbacks and how the Russian state changed under the Romanov's rule.
THE ROMANOVS is told in eight epic one-hour episodes using a unique combination of magnificent CGI animation and dramatic reconstruction with careful and accurate attention paid to each period.

This is an amazing documentary. It's interesting to note all the credits and all writing and notations on the screen appear in what i believe is probably Russian. Yet the narrator speaks English. I'm guessing this film was made in Russia by Russians. What is great is that English speakers can hear and see this amazing history from the perspective of Russians. This is a real masterpiece. 😊

@tasi4372 2 года назад

Michael Romanov feels like such an underrated historical figure. He unwillingly accepted the role of Tsar, inherited a volatile country, faced political and personal betrayals yet stayed true to his convictions and geared Russia towards development. He laid the groundwork for his successors and didn't let anyone else rule him. Truly a man who is overlooked despite being the founder of one of the greatest empires in the world.

I am Russian (real Russian, not just of Russian descent :), and I am learning SO MUCH MORE from this documentary than I "learned" in all my middle and high school years! I always found our history textbooks boring and poorly written, and the two history teachers we had could not really engage and fascinate us. Basically, we were only learning the chronology of events, without being told the exciting stories and personalities that were behind those events. Thank you for this fun and education!

@Guns-and-Moses 2 года назад

Real Russian? You're writing sounds Real American to me. I always thought "Real Russians" are the ones that actually love the Fatherlamd way to much to ever leave it. Let me ask you a question. The newly re-aquired lands of Crimea have many people there that were born and bred citizens of Ukraine. Are they real Russians? Are Russian Jews that have never known any other country, real Russians? Are the people of Dagestan, Tatarstan, Chechnya real Russians? Was Stalin a real Russian? How many real Russians have roots originating in Mongolia. Do Moscovites really believe that anyone not from Moscow is really anything other than at best a 2nd class Russian. Do People from St.Petersberg see themselves as Russians first or are the Peterskayi first and foremost. What a waste of Earth that country really is. How many millions and millions of real Russians no longer exist because other MORE Real Russians had them murdered throughout your real Russian history. So much land so few Real Russians left. Yes Russian people are clever , intelligent, self centered and snobbish. But morons. Morons who allow themselves be overrun and overburdened by tyrants, oligarchs, etc. You fall for the Cult of Personality. You need a strong Dictator to rule because you're all so unruly and really unbrotherely with one another. It's everyman for himself land. I was born there too. Disgusting

Other nations could learn a lot from this Russian Production Company, Star Media and its exceptionally high standards, with these beautifully-produced historcal documentaries.The attention to detail is dazzling: costumes; illustrations, character casting; even the use of hundreds of live animals as set dressing to add to the authenticity of the proramme merely drives home the historically evocative ambiance of this groundbreaking series. And Russia's Historically widely-acknowledged musical excellence is obvious in the background music and the powerful Credits Score.

There are many hidden traits and also, on the negative side, even disorder creating habits, which are passed through generations in family, often very hidden. The impact of a throne would even make them stronger. I definitely would not call the reluctance a curse when it comes to the Romanows, I would definitely call it a strong trait fitting great rulers in a cardinal way. People with this trait are often immune to the destructive obsession power can have. Which is a good thing if you are the ruler.

@travismiller5548 2 года назад

I was struck by that too. seemed ahead of their time on that idea.. but then again, how long can plague survive on a coin? idk. might have had something to do with the fact that the money was going to an army... all their food that rats might get at is moved constantly. no walls for mice and rats to set up and get cozy in (and spread plague) when you're in a military tent. and armies maybe don't haul their sick with them?

@narnzipan 2 года назад

@@travismiller5548 if the coins were made from copper it would totally make sense... Did you know that 95% of bacterias die when left on a copper surface? This is why old door handles and hand surfaces (staircase railings etc) were made from copper! It prevented disease from spreading. Cool huh? We should still be producing things with copper surfaces. And it wasn't that they left the dead behind, it was that NO one in the military contracted the disease to begin with. They have also since discovered that it wasn't rats that carried the disease, it was the fleas that lived on them that carried it. Fleas that can easily live on other animals.

I've been watching this occasionally for some time and was thinking why it is so effective. I think it works in large part because the characters themselves don't speak. This allows it to be seamlessly translated. The quality of the narration, music, and visuals are obviously the way the story gets told... but imagine if we were watching a bad dub of Catherine the Great. It would spoil things for me a bit.

@@TWK_THD Yeah, this documentary series is very interesting. You know, Hollywood and Netflix have a huge material to create a series or movie about at least one ruler from the Romanov dynasty. But in the West it is not customary to show or say anything positive about Russia and Russians. You've probably seen how the media portrays Russia: cold and sullen people, the sky always covered with clouds, perpetual winter, and cities resembling a post-apocalyptic landscape. But eight years ago I left Canada for Russia and saw a very different reality from the one we see on TV. And by doing my own research, I learned that in the West, the Russians have been treated like dirt since the 16th century. That is, it started 500 years ago and continues to this day. That's crazy.
