Hello out there. This is my first time posting on this board, so please bear with me as I introduce myself.

My name is Tranisha N. Thomas. As I said before, I'm new to this post-and to the Romanov family in general. My interest in Russian History began with watching the History Channel's "Russia Land of the Tsars". Since then, I've developed a further interest in this huge, enigmatic country, particularly the Romanov empire. So I bought a few books, one about Alix, one devoted to Tsar Nicholas II's diary, and one about the investigation of their brutal, horrible murder.

My favorite member among Tsar Nicholas II and Alexandra is without doubt Tsarevich Alexei. That boy is so cute! Such a good-looking, beautiful, sweet boy. He so didn't deserve such a cruel fate (hemophilia), but in spite of that, still had some good moments in his life. Had he not been afflicted with hemophilia and had he lived to be the next Tsar, so many people would have fallen in love with him.

Another family member that struck my interest is the oldest daughter, Olga. As well as Marie (who's the prettiest of the sisters in my opinion). There is so much to learn about this family and about Russia. I hope I can further learn from everybody here. Thanks.

Tranisha N. Thomas (nene) :)

Hello nene  :). Welcome to the forum! I agree with you so much about Alexei. I believe he would have made a wonderful & popular Tsar.  :(

Welcome to the Forum nene.   This is what I called myself a long time ago when I could not quite manage 'Christine'.   For years, it is how members of my close family called me.   So, you have brought happy memories to me.
