Cool photos. Doubt Empress and Rasputin were lovers, just because your friend is a guy, doesn't mean your sleeping with him!
Plus It Empress! NOT Queen, an Empress is a higher rank of a consort of a ruler.
a monarch is a monarch equal which titel he/she use... like the emporer of japan, queen of danmark, grand duke of luxemburg...they "rule" their country
Hi.
I'd like to point out that monarchs are not equal. Empresses have almost no power outside their own home, except in the social sense. The power of any female monarch has been determined mostly by the male monarch. There are rare exceptions throughout history (Nefertiti, One of the Empresses of China that I know of but can't name right now, and the Queens of England) but for the most part, males have dominated monarchies, be they empresses or queens.
Besides, Alexandria is Tsarina, not empress. I don't think there's much difference, but at least use the correct title.
I do agree that Alexandria would never sleep with Rasputin. She used him simply to heal Alexi. She's way too deeply religious to do that and besides, there would have been something about that in the reports where the guards followed Rasputin. Arguing that she could have made a mistake or something like that is valid, but that doesn't seem possible. Despite the novelty that drew in other nobility, it just doesn't make sense when you're a mother of five.
I do find the song amusing, despite the inaccuracies.
