Op 30 mei 1979 staan twee mannen op een open plek in de uitgestrekte donkere bossen rond Jekaterinenburg. De twee,  geoloog Avdonin en filmmaker Ryebev zijn bang, ze moeten zorgen dat niemand hen ziet, want als ze worden gepakt kan het wel eens buitengewoon slecht met ze aflopen. De mannen beginnen te graven en al snel komen ze bij planken. 'Ik hoopte ondanks alles dat ik niets zou vinden,' vertelt onze held Avdonin jaren later. Maar als ze de eerste planken optillen zien ze meteen menselijke beenderen en een schedel. Eindelijk hebben ze de begraafplaats van tsaar Nicolaas de tweede en zijn familie gevonden. Maar waar is Anastasia? Had ze het misschien dan toch overleefd...?⁠ .⁠ Ik ben er een paar weekjes tussenuit om de verjaardag van mijn moeder te vieren en te werken aan de tvserie van De moord op mr. Jacques Wijsman en twee nieuwe boeken. Daarom de komende weken een paar van mijn favoriete podcasts. Zoals deze. Wil je deze podcast steunen? Nou dat kan! Laat eens een comment achter op Spotify, geef me een vijfsterrenrecensie of deel een aflevering met een vriend! Of koop mijn boek, De moord op mr. Jacques Wijsman! In dat boek raakt Josephine van Dil - Ter Heul betrokken bij deze zaak als haar broer verdacht wordt van de moord op de jonge advocaat Wijsman. Joop en haar vriendinnen moeten alles uit de kast trekken om de echte dader op te sporen, zelfs als dat steeds gevaarlijker lijkt te worden. Bestel een exemplaar voor jezelf en vertel het aan al je vrienden. Het is al "briljant", "krankzinnig" en "Agatha Christie meets Cissy van Marxveldt" genoemd. Inmiddels wordt er gewerkt aan een tvserie!

De vorige aflevering eindigden we in een gesticht in Berlijn in 1920. Er was een jonge vrouw gered uit het water. Ze had geen papieren, geen merkjes in haar kleren, niets waaruit haar identiteit zou kunnen blijken. Na een aantal maanden zegt ze haar eerste woorden: ik ben Anastasia.   Dat geloven dus verrassend veel mensen. Ook mensen die Anastasia Romanov van dichtbij hebben meegemaakt zoals hofdames en bedienden. En Gleb, de zoon van hofdokter Botkin. Daar tegenover staan minstens net zoveel mensen die roepen dat deze Anastasia, die zich ook wel Anna Anderson noemt, een oplichtster is.  Waarom was er zoveel verwarring over waar die keizerlijke familie was gebleven? Dat werd met opzet onduidelijk gehouden door de regering. Het zou misschien ook wel voor altijd vaag zijn gebleven als er niet een onverwachte held op was gestaan: de Russische geoloog Nikolaj Avdonin, die met gevaar voor eigen leven begint te speuren naar de waarheid. Ik ben er een paar weekjes tussenuit, daarom een paar van mijn favoriete afleveringen die je misschien had gemist!   Wil je deze podcast steunen? Nou dat kan! Koop mijn boek, De moord op mr.

Een buitengewoon lichtvoetig nieuw jaar allemaal!!! Ik ben er een paar weken tussenuit om uitbundig de verjaardag van mijn moeder te vieren en, heel spannend, verder te werken aan de plannen voor de tvserie en maar liefst TWEE nieuwe boeken. Ik heb om dit allemaal te vieren een paar van mijn absolute favorieten van de afgelopen jaren uitgekozen, te beginnen met het mysterie rond groothertogin Anastasia Romanov. (deel 2 en 3 komen er de komende dagen aan)   In de vroege ochtend van 17 Juli 1918 wordt de keizerlijke familie van Rusland uit bed gehaald door hun bewakers. De vijand komt steeds dichterbij en het huis in Jekaterineburg waar de familie in ballingschap zit zou wel eens beschoten kunnen worden. De familie stommelt naar beneden, de veiligheid van de kelder in... Over wat er gebeurde in de kelder bestaan veel verschillende verhalen, waaronder het hardnekkige gerucht dat één van de kinderen het bloedbad overleefden. Namelijk de kleine groothertogin Anastasia.  Wil je deze podcast steunen? Nou dat kan! Koop mijn boek, De moord op mr.

1918 avrättades hela den sista ryska tsarfamiljen – men ett mysterium dröjde kvar i historiens dimma.Rykten började spridas: Hade Anastasia överlevt? Vissa påstod att hon undkom kulregnet den natten och levde i hemlighet, gömd från de som ville henne ont. Kvinnor dök upp, en efter en, och hävdade att de var den förlorade hertiginnan. Men sanningen förblev ouppnåelig, insvept i osäkerhet och bedrägeri.Var hon död, eller levde hon någonstans i världen, fri men bortglömd? Mysteriet om Anastasia Romanov skulle för alltid hemsöka vår kollektiva fantasi – en tragisk gåta om en ung kvinna, förlorad mellan myt och verklighet.Nikolajs begravning: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9yVRmmZp7AQ&t=291sFölj oss på instagram och facebook: Nu blir det historia Maila oss på zimwaypodcast@gmail.comKlippning, ljudbearbetning och manus av Cornelia Boberg. Musik av David Oscarsson. Lyssna på mer av Davids musik här: https://open.spotify.com/artist/4TlPapBXUu5nmWfz5Powcx Stöd Nu blir det historia! och som tack slipper du alla annonser i podden! https://plus.acast.com/s/nublirdethistoria.

I Was Anastasia by Ariel Lawhon. The Romanovs hold an enduring fascination for many of us, and this is the fictional account of Anna Anderson, who for 50 years claimed that she survived the massacre and was in fact Anastasia Romanov. The author cleverly presents the details of what happened, and this woman's subsequent fight to be recognised as genuine – and then lets you, the reader. decide where you think the truth lies. Eden Undone by Abbott Kahler. In the 1930's, a German couple moved to the Galapagos Islands to establish a new Utopia where, over time, they were joined by two more groups. They were all eccentric – an Austrian “baroness” arrived with two lovers in tow - and there were shenanigans. A number of wealthy Americans on scientific expeditions visited and befriended them, along with an increasing number of tourists who came to ogle, and things eventually went from bad to worse with two of the colony missing and three found dead. Paradise was lost. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Efter att ha räddats från ett självmordsförsök i Berlin 1920, skapade Anna Anderson rubriker världen över med sina häpnadsväckande påståenden. Var hon verkligen den försvunna prinsessan som undkom bolsjevikernas kulor? Eller var hon en skicklig bedragare som manipulerade en sörjande värld? Vi dyker ner i bevisen, legenderna och de rättsprocesser som omgärdade Anna Andersons identitet. Kan mysteriet någonsin få ett definitivt svar? Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

Anastasia Romanov (1901-1918) was the youngest daughter of Tsar Nicholas II, the last Tsar of Russia. Her death was hotly debated for years, as she was believed to have survived her family's execution.  For Further Reading:  A Romanov Fantasy: Life at the court of Anna Anderson  The Romanov Sisters: The Lost Lives of the Daughters of Nicholas and Alexandra OTMA - The Romanov Sisters Will the Real Anastasia Romanov Please Stand Up? Historically, women have been told to make themselves smaller, to diminish themselves. Some have used that idea to their advantage, disappearing into new identities. For others, a disappearance was the end to their stories, but the beginning of a new chapter in their legacies. This month we're telling the stories of these women: we're talking about disappearing acts. History classes can get a bad rap, and sometimes for good reason. When we were students, we couldn't help wondering... where were all the ladies at? Why were so many incredible stories missing from the typical curriculum? Enter, Womanica. On this Wonder Media Network podcast we explore the lives of inspiring women in history you may not know about, but definitely should. Every weekday, listeners explore the trials, tragedies, and triumphs of groundbreaking women throughout history who have dramatically shaped the world around us. In each 5 minute episode, we'll dive into the story behind one woman listeners may or may not know–but definitely should. These diverse women from across space and time are grouped into easily accessible and engaging monthly themes like Educators, Villains, Indigenous Storytellers, Activists, and many more. Womanica is hosted by WMN co-founder and award-winning journalist Jenny Kaplan. The bite-sized episodes pack painstakingly researched content into fun, entertaining, and addictive daily adventures.

Stéphane Bern raconte une grande-Duchesse et une terrible nuit, une princesse qui fait encore parler d'elle aujourd'hui, plus de 100 ans après son assassinat. Ou la véritable histoire de la nuit de la mort de la Grande-duchesse Anastasia Romanov.Qui était cette favorite de son père le tsar Nicolas II ? Pourquoi sa mort cette nuit du 17 juillet 1918 a-t-elle ouvert la voie à un mythe qui a parcouru le XXe siècle ? Et est-on bien sûr qu'elle n'est pas de la famille d'Anne Roumanoff ?Pour en parler, Stéphane Bern reçoit Alexandre Sumpf, historien spécialiste de l'histoire de la Russie, auteur de «Okhrana, La police secrète des Tsars».

Dans son récit, Stéphane Bern nous raconte l'histoire de la duchesse Anastasia Romanov, la fille du tsar Nicolas 2.

Février 1920, Berlin : un policier sauve une femme de la noyade. Voulant mettre fin à ses jours, celle-ci venait de se jeter du haut d'un pont. Dans les mois qui suivent, une rumeur folle parcourt toutes les capitales : l'inconnue sauvée des eaux serait Anastasia Romanov, la plus jeune fille du Tsar assassiné Nicolas II. Mais qui a intérêt à faire croire ça ? Et la principale intéressée y croit-elle elle-même ? Retour sur une affaire qui divisa les cours européennes. Cet été, du lundi au jeudi, David Buron vous raconte les plus grandes arnaques de l'Histoire ! Escrocs, faussaires, voleurs ou encore menteurs, personne n'échappe à l'œil de l'enquêteur de l'émission "Ça peut vous arriver".

The second half of the story... With the Romanovs execution in 1918, a woman would come forward just a few months later, claiming to be Grand Duchess Anastasia.

A true crime event, over 100 years old, that still sends shockwaves around the world. In 1918, the Bolsheviks assassinated Czar Nicholas II, but his family... the Russian Imperial Family... allegedly got away.

On July 17, 1918, Nicholas II, Czar of Russia and his entire family were ushered into a dark basement where they were all killed by Bolshevik revolutionary gunmen. But people around the world prayed that perhaps the legend was true. That his 17-year-old daughter Anastasia Romanov survived the massacre. Well, a Polish woman for several decades preyed upon those false hopes and deviously masqueraded as the late Grand Duchess for sympathy, fame and worst of all money.

The 90s was a wonderful, strange time for animation. One of the strangest aspect was the trend of animated films retelling historical events and one example of this is Anastasia (1997). The film, often considered to be a Disney Princess film never made by Disney, chose a unique subject in Anastasia Romanov, an alleged sole survivor of The Romanovs. This week, we're taking a look into the film, its reception, and its impact.  ~~ Follow the show on  Instagram: @theafternoonspecial Tik Tok: @theafternoonspecial Twitter: @hiimbobbi Email the show at theafternoonspecialtv@gmail.com ~~ Afternoon Special is brought to you by QCODE.  To advertise on the show, contact us!

Our last episode was on Project MAC, a Cold War-era project sponsored by ARPA. That led to many questions like what led to the Cold War and just what was the Cold War. We'll dig into that today. The Cold War was a period between 1946, in the days after World War II, and 1991, when the United States and western allies were engaged in a technical time of peace that was actually an aggressive time of arms buildup and proxy wars. Technology often moves quickly when nations or empires are at war. In many ways, the Cold War gave us the very thought of interactive computing and networking, so is responsible for the acceleration towards our modern digital lives. And while I've never seen it references as such, this was more of a continuation of wars between the former British empire and the Imperialistic Russian empires. These make up two or the three largest empires the world has ever seen and a rare pair of empires that were active at the same time.  And the third, well, we'll get to the Mongols in this story as well. These were larger than the Greeks, the Romans, the Persians, or any of the Chinese dynasties. In fact, the British Empire that reached its peak in 1920 was 7 times larger than the land controlled by the Romans, clocking in at 13.7 million square miles. The Russian Empire was 8.8 million square miles. Combined the two held nearly half the world. And their legacies live on in trade empires, in some cases run by the same families that helped fun the previous expansions.  But the Russians and British were on a collision course going back to a time when their roots were not as different as one might think. They were both known to the Romans. But yet they both became feudal powers with lineages of rulers going back to Vikings. We know the Romans battled the Celts, but they also knew of a place that Ptolemy called Sarmatia Europea in around 150AD, where a man named Rurik settle far later. He was a Varangian prince, which is the name Romans gave to Vikings from the area we now call Sweden. The 9th to 11th century saw a number o these warrior chiefs flow down rivers throughout the Baltics and modern Russia in search of riches from the dwindling Roman vestiges of empire. Some returned home to Sweden; others conquered and settled. They rowed down the rivers: the Volga, the Volkhov, the Dvina, and the networks of rivers that flow between one another, all the way down the Dnieper river, through the Slavic tripes Ptolemy described which by then had developed into city-states, such as Kiev, past the Romanians and Bulgers and to the second Rome, or Constantinople.  The Viking ships rowed down these rivers. They pillaged, conquered, and sometimes settled. The term for rowers was Rus. Some Viking chiefs set up their own city-states in and around the lands. Some when their lands back home were taken while they were off on long campaigns. Charlemagne conquered modern day France and much of Germany, from The Atlantic all the way down into the Italian peninsula, north into Jutland, and east to the border with the Slavic tribes. He weakened many, upsetting the balance of power in the area. Or perhaps there was never a balance of power.  Empires such as the Scythians and Sarmatians and various Turkic or Iranian powers had come and gone and each in their wake crossing the vast and harsh lands found only what Homer said of the area all the way back in the 8th century BCE, that the land was deprived of sunshine. The Romans never pushed up so far into the interior of the steppes as the were busy with more fertile farming grounds. But as the Roman Empire fell and the Byzantines flourished, the Vikings traded with them and even took their turn trying to loot Constantinople. And Frankish Paris. And again, settled in the Slavic lands, marrying into cultures and DNA.  The Rus Rome retreated from lands as her generals were defeated. The Merovingian dynasty rose in the 5th century with the defeat of Syagrius, the last Roman general Gaul and lasted until a family of advisors slowly took control of running the country, transitioning to the Carolingian Empire, of which Charlemagne, the Holy Roman Emperor, as he was crowned, was the most famous. He conquered and grew the empire.  Charlemagne knew the empire had outgrown what one person could rule with the technology of the era, so it was split into three, which his son passed to his grandsons. And so the Carolingian empire had made the Eastern Slavs into tributaries of the Franks. There were hostilities but by the Treaty of Mersen in 870 the split of the empire generally looked like the borders of northern Italy, France, and Germany - although Germany also included Austria but not yet Bohemia. It split and re-merged and smaller boundary changes happened but that left the Slavs aware of these larger empires. The Slavic peoples grew and mixed with people from the Steppes and Vikings. The Viking chiefs were always looking for new extensions to their trade networks. Trade was good. Looting was good. Looting and getting trade concessions to stop looting those already looted was better. The networks grew. One of those Vikings was Rurik. Possibly Danish Rorik, a well documented ally who tended to play all sides of the Carolingians and a well respected raider and military mind.  Rurik was brought in as the first Viking, or rower, or Rus, ruler of the important trade city that would be known as New City, or Novgorod. Humans had settled in Kiev since the Stone Age and then by Polans before another prince Kyi took over and then Rurik's successor Oleg took Smolensk and Lyubech. Oleg extended the land of Rus down the trading routes, and conquered Kiev. Now, they had a larger capital and were the Kievan Rus.  Rurik's son Igor took over after Oleg and centralized power in Kiev. He took tribute from Constantinople after he attacked, plunder Arab lands off the Caspian Sea, and was killed overtaxing vassal states in his territory. His son Sviatoslav the Brave then conquered the Alans and through other raiding helped cause the collapse of the Kazaria and Bulgarian empires. They expanded throughout the Volga River valley, then to the Balkans, and up the Pontic Steppe, and quickly became the largest empire in Europe of the day. His son Vladimir the Great expanded again, with he empire extending from the Baltics to Belarus to the Baltics and converted to Christianity, thus Christianizing the lands he ruled.  He began marrying and integrating into the Christian monarchies, which his son continued. Yaroslov the Wise married the daughter of the King of Sweden who gave him the area around modern-day Leningrad. He then captured Estonia in 1030, and as with others in the Rurikid dynasty as they were now known, made treaties with others and then  pillaged more Byzantine treasures. He married one daughter to the King of Norway, another to the King of Hungary, another to the King of the Franks, and another to Edward the Exile of England, and thus was the grandfather of Edgar the Aetheling, who later became a king of England.  The Mongols The next couple of centuries saw the rise of Feudalism and the descendants of Rurik fight amongst each other. The various principalities were, as with much of Europe during the Middle Ages, semi-independent duchies, similar to city-states. Kiev became one of the many and around the mid 1100s Yaroslav the Wise's great-grandson, Yuri Dolgoruki built a number of new villages and principalities, including one along the Moskva river they called Moscow. They built a keep there, which the Rus called kremlins.  The walls of those keeps didn't keep the Mongols out. They arrived in 1237. They moved the capital to Moscow and Yaroslav II, Yuri's grandson, was poisoned in the court of Ghengis Khan's grandson Batu. The Mongols ruled, sometimes through the descendants of Rurik, sometimes disposing of them and picking a new one, for 200 years. This is known as the time of the “Mongol yoke.”  One of those princes the Mongols let rule was Ivan I of Moscow, who helped them put down a revolt in a rival area in the 1300s. The Mongols trusted Moscow after that, and so we see a migration of rulers of the land up into Moscow. The Golden Horde, like the Viking  Danes and Swedes settled in some lands. Kublai Khan made himself ruler of China. Khanates splintered off to form the ruling factions of weaker lands, such as modern India and Iran - who were once the cradle of civilization. Those became the Mughals dynasties as they Muslimized and moved south. And so the Golden Horde became the Great Horde. Ivan the Great expanded the Muscovite sphere of influence, taking Novgorod, Rostov, Tver, Vyatka, and up into the land of the Finns. They were finally strong enough to stand up to the Tatars as they called their Mongol overlords and made a Great Stand on the Ugra River. And summoning a great army simply frightened the Mongol Tatars off. Turns out they were going through their own power struggles between princes of their realm and Akhmed was assassinated the next year, with his successor becoming Sheikh instead of Khan. Ivan's grandson, Ivan the Terrible expanded the country even further. He made deals with various Khans and then conquered others, pushing east to conquer the Khanate of Sibiu and so conquered Siberia in the 1580s. The empire then stretched all the way to the Pacific Ocean.  He had a son who didn't have any heirs and so was the last in the Rurikid dynasty. But Ivan the Terrible had married Anastasia Romanov, who when he crowned himself Caesar, or Tsar as they called it, made her Tsaritsa. And so the Romanov's came to power in 1596 and following the rule of Peter the Great from 1672 to 1725, brought the Enlightenment to Russia. He started the process of industrialization, built a new capital he called St Petersburg, built a navy, made peace with the Polish king, then Ottoman king, and so took control of the Baltics, where the Swedes had taken control of on and off since the time of Rurik.  Russian Empire Thus began the expansion as the Russian Empire. They used an alliance with Denmark-Norway and chased the Swedes through the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, unseating the Polish king along the way. He probably should not have allied with them. They moved back into Finland, took the Baltics so modern Latvia and Estonia, and pushed all the way across the Eurasian content across the frozen tundra and into Alaska.  Catherine the Great took power in 1762 and ignited a golden age. She took Belarus, parts of Mongolia, parts of modern day Georgia, overtook the Crimean Khanate, and modern day Azerbaijan. and during her reign founded Odessa, Sevastopol and other cities. She modernized the country like Peter and oversaw nearly constant rebellions in the empire. And her three or four children went on to fill the courts of Britain, Denmark, Sweden, Spain, and the Netherlands. She set up a national network of schools, with teachings from Russian and western philosophers like John Locke. She collected vast amounts of art, including many from China. She set up a banking system and issued paper money. She also started the process to bring about the end of serfdom. Even though between her and the country she owned 3.3 million herself.  She planned on invading the Khanate of Persia, but passed away before her army got there. Her son Paul halted expansion. And probably just in time. Her grandson Alexander I supported other imperial powers against Napoleon and so had to deal with the biggest invasion Russia had seen. Napoleon moved in with his grand army of half a million troops. The Russians used a tactic that Peter the Great used and mostly refused to engage Napoleon's troops instead burning the supply lines. Napoleon lost 300,000 troops during that campaign. Soon after the Napoleanic wars ended, the railways began to appear. The country was industrializing and with guns and cannons, growing stronger than ever.  The Opium Wars, between China and the UK then the UK and France were not good to China. Even though Russia didn't really help they needed up with a piece of the Chinese empire and so in the last half of the 1800s the Russian Empire grew by another 300,000 square miles on the backs of a series of unequal treaties as they came to be known in China following World War I.  And so by 1895, the Romanovs had expanded past their native Moscow, driven back the Mongols, followed some of the former Mongol Khanates to their lands and taken them, took Siberia, parts of the Chinese empire, the Baltics, Alaska, and were sitting on the third largest empire the world had ever seen, which covered nearly 17 percent of the world. Some 8.8 million square miles. And yet, still just a little smaller than the British empire. They had small skirmishes with the British but by and large looked to smaller foes or proxy wars, with the exception of the Crimean War.  Revolution The population was expanding and industrializing. Workers flocked to factories on those train lines. And more people in more concentrated urban areas meant more ideas. Rurik came in 862 and his descendants ruled until the Romanovs took power in 1613. They ruled until 1917. That's over 1,000 years of kings, queens, Tsars, and Emperors. The ideas of Marx slowly spread. While the ruling family was busy with treaties and wars and empire, they forgot to pay attention to the wars at home.  People like Vladimir Lenin discovered books by people like Karl Marx. Revolution was in the air around the world. France had shown monarchies could be toppled. Some of the revolutionaries were killed, others put to work in labor camps, others exiled, and still others continued on. Still, the empire was caught up in global empire intrigues. The German empire had been growing and the Russians had the Ottomans and Bulgarians on their southern boarders. They allied with France to take Germany, just as they'd allied with Germany to take down Poland. And so after over 1.8 million dead Russians and another 3.2 million wounded or captured and food shortages back home and in the trenches, the people finally had enough of their Tsar. They went on strike but Tsar Nicholas ordered the troops to fire. The troops refused. The Duma stepped in and forced Nicholas to abdicate. Russia had revolted in 1917, sued Germany for peace, and gave up more territory than they wanted in the process. Finland, the Baltics, their share of Poland, parts of the Ukraine. It was too much. But the Germans took a lot of time and focus to occupy and so it helped to weaken them in the overall war effort.  Back home, Lenin took a train home and his Bolshevik party took control of the country. After the war Poland was again independent. Yugoslavia, Czechoslovakia, Estonia, Lithuania, Latvia, and the Serbs became independent nations. In the wake of the war the Ottoman Empire was toppled and modern Turkey was born. The German Kaiser abdicated. And socialism and communism were on the rise. In some cases, that was really just a new way to refer to a dictator that pretended to care about the people. Revolution had come to China in 1911 and Mao took power in the 1940s.  Meanwhile, Lenin passed in 1924 and Rykov, then Molotov, who helped spur a new wave of industrialization. Then Stalin, who led purges of the Russian people in a number of Show Trials before getting the Soviet Union, as Russian Empire was now called, into World War II. Stalin encouraged Hitler to attack Poland in 1939. Let's sit on that for a second. He tried to build a pact with the Western powers and after that broke down, he launched excursions annexing parts of Poland, Finland, Romania, Lithuania, Estonia, Latvia. Many of the lands were parts of the former Russian Empire. The USSR had chunks of Belarus and the Ukraine before but as of the 1950s annexed Poland, Easter Germany, Czechoslovakia, Romania, and Bulgaria as part of the Warsaw Pact, a block of nations we later called the Soviet Bloc. They even built a wall between East and West Germany. During and after the war, the Americans whisked German scientists off to the United States. The Soviets were in no real danger from an invasion by the US and the weakened French, Austrians, and military-less Germans were in no place to attack the Soviets. The UK had to rebuild and British empire quickly fell apart. Even the traditional homes of the vikings who'd rowed down the rivers would cease to become global powers. And thus there were two superpowers remaining in the world, the Soviets and the United States.  The Cold War The Soviets took back much of the former Russian Empire, claiming they needed buffer zones or through subterfuge. At its peak, the Soviet Union cover 8.6 million square miles; just a couple hundred thousand shy of the Russian Empire. On the way there, they grew to a nation of over 290 million people with dozens of nationalities. And they expanded the sphere of influence even further, waging proxy wars in places like Vietnam and Korea. They never actually went to war with the United States, in much the same way they mostly avoided the direct big war with the Mongols and the British - and how Rorik of Dorestad played both sides of Frankish conflicts. We now call this period the Cold War. The Cold War was an arms race. This manifested itself first in nuclear weapons. The US is still the only country to detonate a nuclear weapon in war time, from the bombings that caused the surrender of Japan at the end of the war. The Soviets weren't that far behind and detonated a bomb in 1949. That was the same year NATO was founded as a treaty organization between Belgium, Canada, Denmark, France, Iceland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, and the United States.  The US upped the ante with the hydrogen bomb in 1952. The Soviets got the hydrogen bomb in 1955. And then came the Space Race. Sputnik launched in 1957. The Russians were winning the space race. They further proved that when they put Yuri Gagarin up in 1961. By 1969 the US put Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin on the moon. Each side developed military coalitions, provided economic aid to allies, built large arsenals of weapons, practiced espionage against one another, deployed massive amounts of propaganda, and spreading their ideology. Or at least that's what the modern interpretation of history tells us. There were certainly ideological differences, but the Cold War saw the spread of communism as a replacement for conquest. That started with Lenin trying to lead a revolt throughout Europe but shifted over the decades into again, pure conquest.  Truman saw the rapid expansion of the Soviets and without context that they were mostly reclaiming lands conquered by the Russian imperial forces, won support for the Truman Doctrine. There, he contained Soviet expansion in Eastern Europe. First, they supported Greece and Turkey. But the support extended throughout areas adjacent to Soviet interests. Eisenhower saw how swiftly Russians were putting science in action with satellites and space missions and nuclear weapons - and responded with an emphasis in American science.  The post-war advancements in computing were vast in the US. The industry moved from tubes and punch cards to interactive computing after the Whirlwind computer was developed at MIT first to help train pilots and then to intercept soviet nuclear weapons. Packet switching, and so the foundations of the Internet were laid to build a computer network that could withstand nuclear attack. Graphical interfaces got their start when Ivan Sutherland was working at MIT on the grandchild of Whirlwind, the TX-2 - which would evolve into the Digital Equipment PDP once privatized. Drum memory, which became the foundation of storage was developed to help break Russian codes and intercept messages. There isn't a part of the computing industry that isn't touched by the research farmed out by various branches of the military and by ARPA.   Before the Cold War, Russia and then the Soviet Union were about half for and half against various countries when it came to proxy wars. They tended to play both sides. After the Cold War it was pretty much always the US or UK vs the Soviet Union. Algeria, Kenya, Taiwan, the Sudan, Lebanon, Central America, the Congo, Eritrea, Yemen, Dhofar, Algeria, Malaysia, the Dominican Republic, Chad, Iran, Iraq, Thailand, Bolivia, South Africa, Nigeria, India, Bangladesh, Angolia, Ethiopia, the Sahara, Indonesia, Somalia, Mozambique, Libya, and Sri Lanka. And the big ones were Korea, Vietnam, and Afghanistan. Many of these are still raging on today.  The Soviet empire grew to over 5 million soldiers. The US started with 2 nuclear weapons in 1945 and had nearly 300 by 1950 when the Soviets had just 5. The US stockpile grew to over 18,000 in 1960 and peaked at over 31,000 in 1965. The Soviets had 6,129 by then but kept building until they got close to 40,000 by 1980. By then the Chinese, France, and the UK each had over 200 and India and Israel had developed nuclear weapons. Since then only Pakistan and North Korea have added warheads, although there are US warheads located in Germany, Belgium, Italy, Turkey, and the Netherlands.  Modern Russia The buildup was expensive. Research, development, feeding troops, supporting asymmetrical warfare in proxy states, and trade sanctions put a strain on the government and nearly bankrupted Russia. They fell behind in science, after Stalin had been anti-computers. Meanwhile, the US was able to parlay all that research spending into true productivity gains. The venture capital system also fueled increasingly wealthy companies who paid taxes. Banking, supply chains, refrigeration, miniaturization, radio, television, and everywhere else we could think of. By the 1980s, the US had Apple and Microsoft and Commodore. The Russians were trading blat, or an informal black market currency, to gain access to knock-offs of ZX Spectrums when the graphical interfaces systems were born. The system of government in the Soviet Union had become outdated. There were some who had thought to modernize it into more of a technocracy in an era when the US was just starting to build ARPANET - but those ideas never came to fruition. Instead it became almost feudalistic with high-ranking party members replacing the boyars, or aristocrats of the old Kievan Rus days. The standard of living suffered. So many cultures and tribes under one roof, but only the Slavs had much say.  As the empire over-extended there were food shortages. If there are independent companies then the finger can be pointed in their direction but when food is rationed by the Politburo then the decline in agricultural production became dependent on bringing food in from the outside. That meant paying for it. Pair that with uneven distribution and overspending on the military.  The Marxist-Leninist doctrine had been a one party state. The Communist Party. Michael Gorbachev allowed countries in the Bloc to move into a democratic direction with multiple parties. The Soviet Union simply became unmanageable. And while Gorbachev took the blame for much of the downfall of the empire, there was already a deep decay - they were an oligarchy pretending to be a communist state. The countries outside of Russia quickly voted in non-communist governments and by 1989 the Berlin Wall came down and the Eastern European countries began to seek independence, most moving towards democratic governments.  The collapse of the Soviet Union resulted in 15 separate countries and left the United States standing alone as the global superpower. The Czech Republic, Hungary, and Poland joined NATO in 1999. 2004 saw Bulgaria, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Romania, Slovakia, and Slovenia join. 2009 brought in Albania and Croatia. 2017 led to Montenegro and then North Macedonia. Then came the subject of adding Ukraine. The country that the Kievan Rus had migrated throughout the lands from. The stem from which the name  and possibly soul of the country had sprouted from. How could Vladimir Putin allow that to happen? Why would it come up? As the Soviets pulled out of the Bloc countries , they left remnants of their empire behind. Belarus, Kazakstan, and the Ukraine were left plenty of weapons that couldn't be moved quickly. Ukraine alone had 1,700 nuclear weapons, which included 16 intercontinental ballistic missiles. Add to that nearly 2,000 biological and chemical weapons. Those went to Russia or were disassembled once the Ukrainians were assured of their sovereignty. The Crimea, which had been fought over in multiple bloody wars was added to Ukraine. At least until 2014, when Putin wanted the port of Sevastopol, founded by Catherine the Great. Now there was a gateway from Russia to the Mediterranean yet again. So Kievan Rus under Rurik is really the modern Ukraine and the Russian Empire then Romanov Dynasty flowed from that following the Mongol invasions. The Russian Empire freed other nations from the yolk of Mongolian rule but became something entirely different once they over-extended. Those countries in the empire often traded the Mongol yolk for the Soviet yolk. And entirely different from the Soviet Union that fought the Cold War and the modern Russia we know today.  Meanwhile, the states of Europe had been profoundly changed since the days of Thomas Paine's The Rights of Man and Marx. Many moved left of center and became socialized parts of their economy. No one ever need go hungry in a Scandanavian country. Health care, education, even child care became free in many countries. Many of those same ideals that helped lift the standard of living for all in developed countries then spread, including in Canada and some in the US. And so we see socialism to capitalism as more of a spectrum than a boolean choice now. And totalitarianism, oligarchy, and democracy as a spectrum as well. Many could argue reforms in democratic countries are paid for by lobbyists who are paid for by companies and thus an effective oligarchy. Others might argue the elections in many countries are rigged and so they aren't even oligarchs, they're monarchies.  Putin took office in 1999 and while Dmitry Medvedev was the president for a time, but he effectively ruled in a tandemocracy with Putin until Putin decided to get back in power. That's 23 years and counting and just a few months behind when King Abdullah took over in Jordan and King Mohammed VI took over in Morocco. And so while democratic in name, they're not all quite so democratic. Yet they do benefit from technology that began in Western countries and spread throughout the world. Countries like semi-conductor manufacturer Sitronics even went public on the London stock exchange. Hard line communists might (and do) counter that the US has an empire and that western countries conspire for the downfall of Russia or want to turn Russians into slaves to the capitalist machine. As mentioned earlier, there has always been plenty of propaganda in this relationship. Or gaslighting. Or fake news. Or disinformation.  One of those American advancements that ties the Russians to the capitalist yoke is interactive computing. That could have been developed in Glushkov's or Kitov's labs in Russia, as they had the ideas and talent. But because the oligarchy that formed around communism, the ideas were sidelined and it came out of MIT - and that led to Project MAC, which did as much to democratize computing as Gorbachev did to democratize the Russian Federation.

At the dawn of the 20th century, Russia was in the midst of a political wildfire, and the Tsarist regime was under threat like never before. Enter Tsar Nicholas II, Russia's last monarch, and a man uniquely and catastrophically unfit for the job. Compounding his problems, he and his wife struggled to produce a son to serve as heir. When they finally did, they soon discovered he was a hemophiliac, his life and health constantly under threat. The inevitable demise of the family and the ruling regime would be remembered less for the complicated real-life history that led to it and more for the conspiracy theories, rumors, and active disinformation campaigns centered around two individuals - the family's resident holy man, Grigori Rasputin, and the youngest Romanov daughter, Anastasia. John once again welcomes Mike Manzi and Jess Collins to discuss these two stories, and how the diverse cast of pretenders claiming to be the Romanov children - most notably the notorious Anna Anderson - may well have had their roots in the Soviet Union's first successful exercise in politically useful disinformation.

En la noche del 16 al 17 de julio de 1918 una familia fue asesinada en Rusia. Lo peculiar es que esta no era una familia cualquiera, era la familia de Nicholas II, el último Tsar de Russia. Él, su esposa, sus 5 hijos, algunos sirvientes y el perro fueron ejecutados aquel día, pero su historia, especialmente la de una de sus hijas se ha mantenido viva gracias a un gran misterio. Esta es la historia de Anastasia Nokolaevna Romanova...

La gran duquesa Anastasia ha sido foco de múltiples conspiraciones... ¿Habrá sobrevivido a la masacre de los Romanov, en 1918? ¿Se habrá equivocado Rasputín? ¿Qué sucedió aquella trágica noche? Si quieres saberlo, ponte los audífonos y sintoniza Viernes Conspirativo.

One day they were the most powerful and wealthy royal family in the world, their ancestors having been in charge of Russia for more than 300 years. NEK MINIT... Tsar Nicholas Romanov, his wife Alexandra and their five children (including the legendary Anastasia) are taken down to a basement in the middle of the night and killed, in a VERY botched and violent execution. For years, Russia refused to acknowledge what really happened that night, which led to much speculation about their fate. Did all of them die that night? Or did 16-year-old Anastasia Romanov escape and move to Florida, eventually retire and become one of the Golden Girls?  We give you Just The Gist, but if you want more, there's this: Watch docudrama 'The Last Czars': https://www.netflix.com/title/80211648 Watch BBC doco 'Russia's Lost Princesses': https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VHQWpcpJVM0 HIstory article about the remains of the Romanov family: https://www.history.com/news/romanov-family-bodies-discovery-coverup Last Podcast On The Left 'Rasputin' series: https://www.lastpodcastontheleft.com/episodes/2018/4/7/episode-310-rasputin-part-i-greg-drunk Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/justthegistpodcast/ Email us! justhegistpodcast@gmail.com See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

C’est l’histoire d’un petit garçon qui refuse de grandir. C’est l’histoire d’un monde imaginaire, peuplé de fées et autres créatures magiques. C’est l’histoire d’un groupe d’enfants qui part pour de folles aventures. Et surtout, c’est l’histoire d’un homme qui n’a que trop peu connu les joies de l’enfance. Son nom : James Matthew Barrie. A travers les rêves d’un enfant, découvrez sa True Story.Une enfance perturbée... James Matthew Barrie naît le 9 mai 1860 à Kirriemuir en Ecosse. Il est le 9ème enfant de David et Margaret Barrie. Durant son enfance, James est bercé par des aventures extraordinaires, comme celles racontées dans les Milles et une nuits ou alors l’histoire de Robinson Crusoé que lui conte sa mère avant de s’endormir. Le garçon se passionne très vite pour la lecture, et dévore les romans. Mais si le petit Jimmy se réfugie dans la lecture, c’est parce qu’il ne connaît pas une enfance très heureuse… Alors qu’il est âgé de 7 ans, son frère aîné, David, le petit protégé de sa mère, décède lors d’un accident de patins à glace. Margaret, sa mère, reste prostrée par cette perte pendant un an. James, qui aime sa mère plus que tout, désire la sortir de la solitude du deuil. Mais le chagrin de Margaret ne s’estompe pas. Le grand frère restera omniprésent, tout au long de la vie de James Matthew Barrie. ...Qui se retranscrit dans ses oeuvresL’écriture figure parmi les grandes passions de James. Il aime raconter des légendes entendues durant son enfance: “La raison pour laquelle mes livres parlent du passé plutôt que de ma propre vie, du temps que j’ai vécu, est simplement que je m’ennuie rapidement lorsque j’écris des histoires si je ne peux pas y apercevoir une petite fille dont ma mère m’a parlé, qui se promène avec confiance au fil des pages.” Son premier réel succès “Le petit ministre”, sort 3 ans plus tard. C’est un roman très sentimental dans lequel un tisserand exprime son point de vue sur le mariage annulé d’un ministre. Barrie met en scène son oeuvre pour le théâtre, et plus tard, un film sera même adapté de cette histoire. Mais JM Barrie restera surtout connu pour avoir créé le petit garçon le plus connu du monde entier...

19 juin 2018. Opéra de Sydney. Les rideaux se lèvent sur une femme à la carrure imposante, au style androgyne, et à la parole franche. Elle est humoriste. Mais pendant une heure, elle va faire vibrer la scène en basant ses récits sur des traumatismes qu’elle a vécue. Son nom : Hannah Gadsby. De son coming-out à son engagement, découvrez sa True Story. Une enfance dans la honte et le secret Hannah Gadsby naît le 12 janvier 1978 à Smithton en Tasmanie, un État de l’Australie. Elle est la plus jeune d’une fratrie de 5 enfants. Son père est professeur de mathématiques et sa mère femme de ménage dans un golf. La jeune Hannah pratiquera d’ailleurs cette activité jusqu’à l’adolescence. Madame Gadsby a, dans le fond, toujours su que sa fille Hannah était homosexuelle. Mais en Tasmanie, à cette époque, être attiré par une personne du même sexe est encore considéré comme illégal. En effet, là bas, si on “choisit d’être gay”, il vaut mieux se payer un aller pour le continent, et ne jamais revenir. Pendant ses jeunes années, Hannah vit dans la honte et le secret. Elle met 10 ans à accepter son homosexualité et jusque là, se cache dans ses blagues. Quelques années plus tard, elle décide de quitter sa terre natale qu’elle a tant aimé, mais où il ne fait pas bon d’aimer les femmes… quand on est soi-même une femme.Son entrée dans le milieu du rireAprès avoir quitté la Tasmanie, Hannah s’inscrit à l’Université Nationale d’Australie et obtient en 2003 une licence d’histoire de l’art. Ses études lui ont permis de comprendre le monde qui l’entoure et notamment la place et la vision de la femme au fil des époques. Des études passionnantes mais qui s’arrêteront très tôt. Après sa licence, la jeune femme décide de quitter l’université et enchaîne alors les petits boulots, comme projectionniste ou libraire. Ensuite, elle décide de se tourner vers le métier qu’elle a toujours rêvé d’exercer : la comédie. Elle profite de ses connaissances du monde de l’art pour organiser des visites comiques de la National Gallery of Victoria. Une façon originale et audacieuse de faire son entrée dans le milieu du rire...

17 juillet 1918. Russie. La famille Tsar qui vient d’abdiquer est retenue prisonnière dans une effrayante demeure. Il est minuit. Des soldats bolcheviques les font descendre dans la cave. Là, le tsar Nicolas II et ses enfants son sauvagement fusillés. Mais des bruits de couloirs disent que l’une des filles aurait survécu. Son nom : Anastasia Romanov.

Elle est la fille du Tsar Nicolas II et de l’Allemande Alexandra Fiovodorma. Elle est la quatrième et la plus jeune fille des Romanov.

Naît enfin celui que tout le monde attendait : Alexey. C’est officiel, les Tsar ont un héritier. Contrairement au reste de sa famille, Anastasia n’a rien de très “princier”. C’est l’impératrice de Russie elle-même, qui travaille à l’éducation de ses filles. Pendant des heures, elle leur apprend à coudre et à broder. Mais contrairement à ses soeurs, Anastasia qui se révèle pourtant très intelligente, n’aime pas l’école. La petite dernière ne manque pas de caractère : elle est rebelle et fougueuse. Les années passent, et Anastasia vit une enfance plutôt heureuse. Une princesse encore vivante ? En 1917, la Révolution russe, menée par les Bolcheviks, éclate. Le peuple veut mettre fin au régime des Tsars et de Nicolas II qui, selon eux, n’a pas su représenter fièrement son pays pendant la Grande Guerre. De nombreuses émeutes ont lieu devant le palais. Le Tsar Nicolas II choisit d’abdiquer pour le bien de sa famille. Un gouvernement provisoire est alors mis en place. Pour sa sécurité, la famille est envoyée dans plusieurs résidences surveillées. Les Russes ne veulent plus de la famille royale dans leur pays. Le 17 juillet 1918, toute la famille est tuée. Mais depuis, de nombreux experts remettent en cause la mort de la petite Anastasia. En réalité, la jeune fille aurait réussi à s’échapper et serait toujours vivante...La suite de son histoire incroyable à écouter dans ce podcast.Pour découvrir d'autres récits passionnants, cliquez ci-dessous : Marguerite Steinheil, de femme du monde à criminelleHarry Houdini, le magicien de tous les dangersFrank Abagnale Jr, l’escroc aux 1000 visages See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

In 1920, in Berlin, a woman was seen standing on the edge of a bridge and moments later, she jumped into the river, attempting to take her own life. She was saved and transferred to Dalldorf asylum, because she wouldn’t speak or identify herself. In the next two years of her stay, she was given the name Anna Anderson and was noted as being anti-social, with strange scars on her body. Soon, a fellow patient identified her as a missing Russian duchess - Anastasia Romanov - daughter of Tsar Nicholas, who was murdered in 1918 by his Bolshevik guards. Except, not everyone believed her story and those people set out to prove Anna was a lying impostor.

Aunque hay sobrevivientes de la familia de los zares rusos, estos no pueden a acceder a un trono que ya no existe, por eso es que mencionamos que Anastasia fue la última princesa de los Romanov.

During the Bolshevik revolution, the Romanov dynasty was killed after over a hundred-year reign in Russia. The bodies of the parents and all five children were laid on the ground. But when the corpses were later moved and given a proper burial, the bodies of the son, Alexei, and the princess Anastasia were missing. This gave the Russian people hope that at least two of these innocent children managed to play dead long enough to escape.

Ah the tale of Anastasia, what a wonderful story….If you believe the Disney telling. Truthfully, the tale is a little bit disturbing and shows the corruption that the early 1900s Russia had to deal with. Anastasia Romanov’s family were at the top of the royalty tree and her father, Nicholas Romanov was known as a Czar, an equivalent to kings. Well they all died. Except maybe… Anastasia did not, and fled the country. Executive Producer: Aife Debrick Most Excellent Patrons: Matt Knighten, Hailee Want to help our podcast grow and get some cool merch?

in this episode, I'm talking about the mystery that too 90 years to solve, part of Russia history, the mystery of Anastasia Romanov and her brother Alexei. I read information off of two websites, one for what actually happened to them, and the other for what the movie says. also, one detail to add that I didn't think to add while recording, the movie says that Anastasia was the only Romanov child to survive the attack, while history says, even though none actually did survive, Anastasia and her brother were said to have survived. if you want to read this info for yourself click one, or both of the links below https://www.biography.com/people/anastasia-9184008 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anastasia_(1997_film) I also mentioned that they were related to queen Victoria, and Alexei, son of Nicholas II, had Hemophilia, click the link below if you want to learn about how hemophilia passed through the royal family http://www.englishmonarchs.co.uk/haemophilia.html

Ariel Lawhon joins Charlie to discuss her novel I Was Anastasia, an exploration of two lives—Anastasia Romanov, youngest daughter of the last Tsar of Russia, and Anna Anderson, who for 50 years claimed to be Anastasia.

Mari and Meg are back with a slightly disappointing Baba Yaga story this week. Dreaming Anastasia by Joy Preble is pitched as an Anastasia Romanov and Baba Yaga story....which it does have both of these things.  This book is as close to a "nice" Baba Yaga as we get, and that's a bit hard to stomach. Whiny teens, hundred-year-old suiters, it's definitely a book from 2009. Don't forget to go vote for our next season! Follow us on social media, and don't forget to rate and review us!

The feminine ideal was different a hundred years ago. Less sex, more charm.It was her charm that attracted us to young Anastasia Romanov, the daughter of Czar Nicholas II of Russia. This is why we refused to believe it when she was murdered in 1918 following the Bolshevik Revolution. For the next 50 years we embraced every impostor who claimed to be her. Elegant, effortless charm remained a feminine ideal as recently as 50 years ago. It's what attracted us to the movies of Audrey Hepburn. Anastasia and Audrey represent the Regal Queen, one of the four feminine archetypes of Carl Jung.But Anastasia and Audrey were bumped aside by the blonde bombshells of Marilyn Monroe and Jayne Mansfield, poster girls for the objectification of women. And I mean “poster girls” quite literally. Marilyn was the centerfold in the first-ever issue of Playboy magazine, with Jayne following in her footsteps 17 months later. Marilyn and Jayne represent the Erotic Lover, another of the four feminine archetypes.Just as the Regal Queen was in vogue 100 years ago, so was the impudent https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ing%C3%A9nue (ingénue.) America was riveted by the antics of Alice Roosevelt, the mischievous young daughter of Teddy. And when Alice exited the White House, we replaced her with young Shirley Temple, the impetuous embodiment of Little Orphan Annie. This young “court jester” persona of Alice and Shirley and Little Orphan Annie is a sub-type of the Wise Woman archetype,which is the feminine variation of the masculine Wizard or Magician. It continues to this day as an icon of female empowerment in characters such as Katniss Everdeen from The Hunger Games, Lara Croft from Tomb Raider, Bella Swan from Twilight, and Hermione Grainger from the Harry Potter series. Girl Power. I've saved the first of the female archetypes for last, however, because Mother Eve is the least appreciated and most misunderstood.I blame the translators of the 1611 King James Bible. We meet Eve in the second chapter of Genesis when God says, “It is not good for man to be alone. I will make him an ezer kenegdo.” The King James version translates this as, “a help meet for him,” while other translations say “helpmate” or “helper.” (In 1611, meet meant appropriate.) This mistranslation in 1611 caused Christians to believe that the proper role of women was to be the “assistant,” or servant, to their man.The Hebrew term ezer kenegdo is notoriously difficult to translate. In fact, it appears nowhere in the Bible except the second chapter of Genesis. But we know for certain that it doesn't mean “helper.” A more accurate translation would be “lifesaver.” Let's look at the two separate words that form ezer kenegdo. Ezer is always interpreted as “power” or “strength” or “rescue.”Throughout the Bible, it speaks only of God, especially when you desperately need him to come through for you. “There is no one like the God of Jeshurun, who rides on the heavens to be your ezer.” – Deut. 33:26 “Blessed are you, O Israel! Who is like you, a people saved by the LORD? He is your shield and ezer and your glorious sword.' – Deut. 33:29 “I lift up my eyes to the hills-where does my ezer come from? My ezer comes from the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth.' – Ps. 121:1-2 “May the LORD answer you when you are in distress; may the name of the God of Jacob protect you. May he send you ezer.” – Ps. 20:1-2 Kenegdo means “facing.” It can also mean “opposite.” Thus,“It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a power facing him.” “I will make him a strength opposite him.” “I will make him a rescuer that looks him in the face.” Each of these translations is vastly more accurate than “helpmate” or “helper”....

Ariel Lawhon is a historical novelist based outside of Nashville, TN. Her debut was The Wife, The Maid, The Mistress about a New York Supreme Court Justice who disappeared in 1930. Flight of Dreams about the last voyage of the  Hindenburg came next. And Today we'll be talking about her latest novel, I Was Anastasia, about a woman believed by many to be sole survivor of Tsar Nicholas II's family, Anastasia Romanov.

This time our hosts discuss their first animated feature, Anastasia! Starring Meg Ryan, John Cusack, and Kelsey Grammer, Anastasia reimagines the story of Anastasia Romanov after her family’s assassination as an animated children’s musical! Tsar Nicholas Romanov and his family are cursed by the evil Rasputin – leading to their deaths. Ten years later, rumors persist that … The post Ep. 6 – Anastasia appeared first on Last Chance Theater.

The Romanov family ruled Russia for centuries but after the loss of millions of lives during the first World War and the country descending into economic chaos the people lost faith in them. The final ruler, Nicholas, abdicated the throne in 1917 and went into hiding with his family but eventually they were said to have been found and killed by firing squad in 1918. Although skeletal remains have since been discovered there are people that contest that Nicholas' youngest daughter, Anastasia, managed to escape. So what actually happened to Anastasia Romanov?

En el programa de esta semana viajamos a las frías tierras del Imperio ruso para encontrarnos con un personaje dueño de una de las miradas más penetrantes e inquietantes de la Historia, Rasputín. Para entender mejor al personaje repasamos su biografía desde su nacimiento en Siberia Occidental hasta su asesinato a manos de un grupo de nobles. Igualmente, viajaremos por la convulsa situación socio-política del Imperio para conocer hechos fundamentales, tales como la Revolución de 1905, el Domingo Sangriento, el motín del Potemkin, etc... Tras analizar la muerte de Rasputín, veremos como la maldición que dijo al Zar Nicolas II "si yo muero, los Romanov me seguirán" terminó por cumplirse, centrándose Lola, en esta parte del programa, al mito de Anastasia Romanov.

Alex and star of Funny or Die's "Gay of Thrones" Jonathan Van Ness gab about "Gay of Thrones," his new podcast, "Getting Curious" and, of course, the haps in the Seven Kingdoms circa Season 5 and what we might expect in Season 6. What we know for certain? Loras needs to stay pretty and Anastasia (Romanov) was more than just a cartoon, y'all. -------------------------------------- This is the GoT Thrones Season 5 Catch No. 2!
