Questions about Emperor Nicholas II Alexandrovich
Generally, if carried out historical analogy, Nicholas II on the basis of his reign can be called Barack Obama of the Russian Empire, if not worse. The last Russian emperor lost and ruined everything that he could lose and ruin: the Russo-Japanese War, the First World War, the state, the throne, family, life.
As is known, in August 2000, Nicholas II and his whole family were canonized by the Russian Orthodox Church, glorified as the martyrs "in the assembly of the new martyrs and confessors of Russia." Here I am not protesting, but only asking questions.
The first question is: if Nicholas II was canonized, then why are the legitimate emperors Ivan VI Antonovich and Peter III Fedorovich mentioned above still not listed among the saints? The circumstances of life and death in all three are very similar: the overthrow, imprisonment, murder in imprisonment.
The second question: how could a saint be confused with an easy-going ballerina Matilda Felixovna Kshesinskaya, that is, if you call a spade a spade, be one of her lovers? It may be objected that St. Vladimir the Baptist had many concubines. But they were before the baptism of Prince Vladimir!
The third question is: if the victims of 1937 – 1938 shootings at the Butovo training ground were canonized, why are the victims of the Bloody Sunday of the 1905 of the year and the victim of the Lena shooting of the 1912 of the year? The circumstances of life and death are also very similar for everyone: the discrepancy with the authorities in their views on the prevailing life circumstances, and as a result - the shooting.
And after Lensky was shot, there are those who claim that Bloody Sunday was an accident.
If after Bloody Sunday only the workers felt humiliated and deceived, after the Third June 1907 coup the whole Russian society turned out to be in this position, with the exception of persons close to the emperor.
Thus, Nicholas II himself laid under his autocracy those timepieces that were blown up by his enemies at a convenient time for them.
In any case, it is Nikolai II who is responsible for everything that happened to Russia and in Russia from November 1 1894 to March 15 1917, inclusive.
Of course, history does not tolerate the subjunctive mood. But just imagine for a second what would happen if in 1941 Russia ruled this very unfortunate king ...
