| | Grigori Rasputin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Rasputin’s influence over the royal family was used against him and the Romanovs by politicians and journalists who wanted to weaken the integrity of the dynasty, make the Tsar give up his absolute political power, and separate the Russian Orthodox Church from the state. | | | He soon became the confidant and personal advisor of Alexandra. | | | Nobles in influential positions around the Tsar as well as some parties of the Duma, the Russian parliament, clamoured for his removal from the court. |

| | First World War.com - Who's Who - Tsarina Alexandra |
| | Unfounded rumours abounded of the Tsarina's collaboration with Germany (along with Prime Minister Sturmer), further cementing Alexandra's deep unpopularity in the country. | | | With the Tsarina having helped to engineer the dismissal of Grand Duke Nikolai - the Tsar's uncle - from his position as Commander in Chief of the army, the Tsar subsequently announced his intention (against all advice) to take personal command of his armed forces. | | | She joined her family (including the Tsar) in internal exile and was eventually executed, shot to death, by the Bolsheviks on the night of 16/17 July 1918 at Yekaterinburg. |
