He was a hemopholiac, which means he bleed with out scabbing, so they don't think his body is missing, or he got away that night.
His mother was Aleksandra, or Alix, Princess of Hesse. Alix's grandmother ws Queen Victoria. His father was the ever kind Nicholas. He would not harm a fly, and was kind ruler.
HIs eldest sister was Olga, the parents pet, and then Tatiana, the "governess" who watched all the children. Mariya was a great beauty, and Anastasia a sweet imp.
THey were imprisoned in their own palace, before being moved to Ekaterinburg, where one night they were called to the basement. Nicholas asked for chairs for Alexei and Aleksandra. Then the man told them they were ordered to be executed.Nicholas was able to shout WHAT, and Aleksandra started "In the name of the father and..." and then the shotting started. They say since they girls had jewls sewn into their corsets for money incase they escaped, they were able to repel some of the bullets.
THey burned their bodies, dipped them and chemicals, and treid to make them as unrecognizable as possible. In the 80's they found the bodies, but two were missing, probably of Mariya's and Anastasia's.

Revolutions make me sad
Yup, they do. As if it couldn't have been done in a more human way. :-(
I'm NOT proud of my country's (France) revolution either. It was really bloody and horrible. I won't get into details because there are young teens here but the guillotine was a gracious death compared to other stuff.
Moreover it was a "bourgeois" revolution. The leaders did not care about the people. Had the aristocrats agreed to give the "bourgeois" the same privileges they would never have wanted to "help" the poor. I won't even mention that the average age at death was even lower after the revolution, and that the bourgeois didn't feel a moral and religious responsability towards the people, contrary to the aristocrats (in theory, not all of them were good of course).
I also hate the way they gave new, stupid, awful names to cities, and to people (!!), and that going to church/synagogue or wearing like a religious person could bring you to the guillotine.
I'll stop here, sorry for the vent... But I wanted people not to idealize the French revolution...

and to months AFAIK :-) but I do like some of them, Thermidore (I hope I spelled it correctly) is awesome for example

Yup, although I find disrespectful to rename something that has a 2000+ years name, the months names weren't awful.

Yeah, it's all sad. I read that the family were led into a basement room, and that they went willingly and had no idea that they were going to be killed, despite having been imprisoned in their home for some time beforehand. It took several shots to kill all the Romanovs--some of the meant-to-be fatal shots were deflected from the women by their jewellery, and the dog Anastasia was holding also prevented the girl from dying instantly. (The princesses' dogs were also killed in the Romanov Assasination.) :-(
I'm also perversely fond of Marie Antoinette's sad story, both because of the story itself and the fact that Marie Antoinette was born on November 2nd, the same as me. But you just have to feel for a woman who lost her baby (Sophie Beatrice), then was imprisoned in awful conditions and separated from her family and children, and then guillotined. And for all of that, her last words were an apology to her executioner!
The guillotine was actually invented by a doctor with the surname of Guillotine. He was actually opposed to the death penalty, but he felt that, if it had to be practiced, it might was well be humanely done, and so he designed his namesake to ensure a quick, painless, error-free death for the condemned.

I can't believe these sick people accused Marie Antoinette of having had sexual relationships with her son. What a f*cked up basis for a republic.
