This source was selected due to their clarity in demonstrating the individual members of the Romanov family from beginning to end.

A good understanding of the royal family is key to understanding their fate.

However, to save you, dear reader, from constantly flicking back and forth to this page, I will insert this image where needed, with the individuals in focus highlighted.

The Romanovs were a big family, but they were just one branch of a much larger, much more affluent family. During World War One, despite the conflict that separated nations and caused the deaths of millions, the royal families in Britain, Germany, Greece, Spain, etc were all straining to find a way to save their cousins in Russia. The richest people throughout Europe were determined to find a way to save Nicholas and his wife and children. They were united, in this one thing.

The Romanovs united them.

Is it a wonder people think they could have survived?
