Archaeologist : Remains of last Russian Czar’s heir may have been found.

[Rampager]

This story/saga has always interested me. It was a tragic end for Czar Nicholas II and his family which ushered in a tragic era for millions of Russian people.

Just pondering...but it makes me wonder how different the 20th century may have been if the Bolshevik revolution had not occurred (not that "what if" matters). But I have to wonder what a Lennin-less, Stalin-less 20th century would have been like and how WWII may have been quite different as a result.

Oh well, anyhow...

Wait, I saw a Disney documentary on this very subject and Anastasia was the one who actually escaped with the help of a kitchen boy named Dimitri. Unfortunately, she loses her memory and it isn't until 10 years later that she is reunited with Dimitri and they fall in love and live happily ever after.

This seems like HISTORY.
