Anastasia didn't survive, was found in 2007 with her brother Alexis in a separate grave. There is a youtube video about all this. Their dna was confirmed by matching with Prince Philip's.

I followed the story of Anna Anderson for years. They was a youtube video about her. They found some of her dna from a surgery before he died and compared it to a Polish relative, and they matched. She was a missing Polish factory worker who turned up in Berlin.

Anna's story is compelling, too, but I never was quite convinced. Glad the whole matter can be laid to rest, and especially fitting that the family finally received a proper burial and are all together in death as they were so close in life.

Maybe Nicholas was inept (re another comment), but he loved his country and seemed like such a good husband and father to the very end.

The winners write the history.

The lefties did what they always do - kill to achieve power they want so that everyone can be ‘equal’- except the people who they kill are not so equal.

The stories of the family's life in captivity, before their murder, are very touching. It's impossible that they would have borne hardship like that unless they really loved each other.

I think it was Alexis and one of the daughters closest in age to Anastasia which they found in a seperate lime pit. The forensic story alone is fascinating.
