À propos de ce contenu audio

 In this episode, we explore the intricate web of court politics, spirituality, and manipulation that defined the final decades of the Romanov dynasty. Focusing on the period after the 1905 revolution, we examine how Tsarina Alexandra's desperate search for a cure for her hemophiliac son, Alexei, led her to the Siberian mystic Grigori Rasputin. We discuss the political rivalries at court, including the influence of conservative factions like the Union of the Russian People, and Rasputin's role in ministerial appointments during World War I. We also touch on the murder of Rasputin in December 1916 and its aftermath. Key figures include Tsar Nicholas II, Tsarina Alexandra, Rasputin, Felix Yusupov, and Prime Minister Boris Stürmer. The episode sheds light on how the breakdown of traditional authority and the war led to the February Revolution and the end of the Romanov autocracy.
