The last empress of Russia, whose desperation to save a hemophiliac son drew her to a mystic named Rasputin - and whose refusal to bend on autocracy helped crack a three-hundred-year dynasty.

About this person

Born Princess Alix of Hesse and by Rhine on 6 June 1872, she married Nicholas II on 26 November 1894 and became empress of Russia. She threw herself into Nicholas's political life, pressing him to hold autocratic rule even as revolutionary pressure mounted. When Rasputin appeared to ease their son Alexei's hemophilia, her reliance on the mystic became absolute - and public perception of the Romanovs collapsed under the weight of rumor and scandal. Nicholas abdicated on 15 March 1917. The Bolsheviks placed the family under house arrest, then murdered them in Yekaterinburg on 17 July 1918, ending the Romanov line. In 2000 the Russian Orthodox Church canonized her as Saint Alexandra the Passion Bearer.
