The Romanov Family: Standing for Imperial Russia In the Russian empire there were two dynasties to rule, the Rurikids and the Romanov. Between the Rurikids dynasty (862-1547) there were four certain parts of Russia that were ruled by princes: Novgorod, Kiev, Vladimir, and Moscow. The Tsars of Russia 1547-1721 (ruler of all Russia) was the first to rule.
Boyars struggled for power, and heirs of czars died under mysterious conditions. Several impostors tried to claim the throne. Finally, in 1613, people from many Russian cities met to choose the next czar. Their choice was Michael Romanov, the grandnephew of Ivan IV’s wife, Anastasia. Thus began the Romanov dynasty, which ruled Russia for over 300 years.
In 1775, she decreed a Statue for the Administration of the Provinces of the Russian Empire, and this divided Russia into provinces and districts in accordance with population statistics. Each province was provided with administrative, political and judicial systems, as well as a governor who would act in place of the empress. Her decisions proved undeniably beneficial to the government by adding depth into its structure, and by the end of her reign, 50 provinces and nearly 500 districts had been established, the number of government officials had almost doubled, and spending on local governance had increased sixfold. A letter by a French diplomat, Baron de Breteuil, reveals that she “will endeavour to reform the administration of justice and to invigorate the laws”, thus reiterating her dissemination of Enlightened ideas and her consideration of reason and critical thinking in order to determine the most pragmatic approaches to bettering the Russian government. Furthermore, due to a deficiency of silver and copper coins from large government spending, she established the first Assignation Bank of Russia in 1769 in order to strengthen the Russian economy.

Soon, Shatov’s wife gave birth to a son, who he adopted and had a complete change of heart, and wanted to devote his life to his family, instead of the revolutionary cause, and the objectification that accompanied being a revolutionist. Due to Shatov’s disassociation from the terrorist organization, Verkhovensky soon lost faith in Shatov, and began to plot Shatov’s murder. Pyotr Verkhovensky assigned the members of the terrorist group responsibilities in helping with the murder, to bind the organization with blood. Shatov was lured out into a park late at night, and was shot by Verkhovensky. The terrorist organization tied two large stones to the carcass and threw

Russia’s historical experience was eccentric but yet not completely divorced from European influence. In fact, in the 18th century European contemporary ideas were deliberately brought to Russia with a view to modernize its alleged medieval existence. Many contemporaries claim the ruler of that period, Peter I, the Great, to have transformed Russia “from non-existence into being” (Hughes 2009, 165). Or also as the English author Harold Nicolson wrote: “It was Peter the Great who, within a quarter of a century, transformed Russia from a barbaric Asiatic principality into a centralized monarchy, capable of playing its part in the European balance of power.”
The Russian people were more than disappointed when Nicholas and his wife attend the balls hours after the horrific deaths pretending that nothing happened. The Russian people believed the new Tsar only cared for his family and for the people in his gilded circle due to his response of the event that occurred. The Russian Ruler History testified that the lack of leadership on Tsar Nicholas II behalf was blamed on Alexander III. Alexander III frequently reused to train and lead Nicholas for the position because Alexander III didn’t believe that Nicholas was ever going to take the throne. Many Russian people had many doubts about the Tsar regime but held much hope that the Tsar was going to lead Russia to greatness.
What do you know about the Romanov Dynasty? The family? The Romanov family was the wealthiest ruling monarchy in the world; They ruled over all of Russia, which was about “130 million people and one-sixth of the earth’s land surface” (Fleming, The Family Romanov). Candace Fleming, in her exposé The Family Romanov: Murder, Rebellion, & the Fall of Imperial Russia, discovers and reveals the truth about what truly happened to the last imperial family, the Romanovs.
The Russian Revolution, which was started by Lenin and his followers, was a rebellion that occurred in 1917 which forced higher powers to act to the needs of the lower class. For instance, many citizens were worried for their protection in consequence to the lack of survival necessities due to an early drought. Furthermore, their current czar during the time was incapable for his position as a czar and made horrendous decisions as czar. For example, when the czar, Nicholas, entered in World War I, he sent untrained troops into countless battles of failure which costed in mass amounts of lost life (paragraph 23).
