The burden of an autocrat is heavy and responsible, and sometimes tragic. On March 1, 1881, the new heir to the Russian throne, young Nicky, standing at the bedside of his bleeding dying grandfather, Emperor Alexander II, could not imagine that it would be too much for him. Nicholas II would lose the empire, freedom, life. And he would die, like his grandfather, at the hands of his own former subjects - "... Belshazzar was killed by his servants." Personal letters and diaries of the Romanovs, correspondence with relatives allow us to understand what kind of person the last emperor of Russia was, what education and upbringing he received, what he experienced and enjoyed in life, how he treated the burden of his power. Only documentary evidence gives an impartial picture, from which everyone can form their own opinion and draw their own conclusions.
