## Bio

Born at Tsarskoye Selo in 1868, Nicholas Alexandrovich Romanov became Emperor of Russia in 1894, eldest son of Alexander III, widely considered unprepared for the scale of what he inherited. He resisted political reform and clung to autocratic rule even after the 1905 Revolution forced the creation of the Duma. Defeat in the Russo-Japanese War and mounting domestic unrest eroded confidence; World War I finished it. In March 1917 the February Revolution forced his abdication, ending 304 years of Romanov rule. He and his family were imprisoned by the Provisional Government, transferred to Bolshevik custody, and executed on 17 July 1918 in Yekaterinburg. Soviet historians called him a callous tyrant; most now see a well-intentioned man catastrophically unequal to his moment. The Russian Orthodox Church canonised the family as passion bearers in 2000.
