goddamn masons

>German women are all ugl-

...

Because King George is shameless anglo scum

Reality doesn't care about beta orbiters and the objects of their affection.

>Why didn't the Tsar evacuate his family anons?

Because it was literally impossible for him to do so. They were surrounded by soldiers and guards, none of whom were loyal.

For the first few months, while the family was still under house arrest in the palace, they offered up the entire family, including Nicholas, to the British who would not enter into negotiations to come get them despite repeated attempts to exile the family from Russia.

How could someone kill this angel ? Are bolsheviks demons ?

>tfw you will never heard the beautiful voice of Maria Nikolaevna
>tfw you will never see with your own eyes a pure creature of God
>tfw Louis Mountbatten will never be Maria's husband

she doesn't look German at all, she looks quite Russian actually

Why not actually visit a local lodge and see for yourself what our order(s) are like instead of posting rubbish.

Well she was less than 1% russian like her father and sisters. But indeed she looks russian, like Anastasia.

how was she 1% Russian?
seriously asking

His was truly a life of tragedy.

I will forever hate the British government for this

I still can't believe George V was responsible. DLG I could believe but George?

He was a traitor and cuck tbqh but maybe he was made that way by the murder
what a tragedy

A captain goes down with his ship, user.

he fucked millions

Damn I wonder what George V and the governments reasoning was? Considering the extent of intervention in the civil war in the first place...

Maybe Georgy thought Nicolas was going to usurp him, as they have the face.

>tfw you can't go back in time and save her

Apparently he thought it was unsuitable to have the Romanovs in Britain because the government genuinely feared a socialist revolution at the time (this was not completely unfounded, see Red Clydeside). It was still a weak af excuse though. It's often been said that DLG was the main guy who stopped it but some say it was actually George.

Anastasia > Maria

tfw the only footage where you can see Maria, she's making weird faces

Wow I never knew about that, wonder what would have happened if she survived? And what did the IRA think they'd accomplish by killing him anyway?

>And what did the IRA think they'd accomplish by killing him anyway?

Hate potatonigger more

Interesting, you're definitely right in that its a pretty weak excuse, hell even fearing for a revolution in the UK he could have used the excuse that he's simply helping family. I guess we'll never know whether it really was DLG or George at all

Thanks user, I love looking back at old photographs and movies, especially candid ones. Society may change, but people don't

Blasphemy

t. Earl Mountbatten

She was his first cousin, the last thing European royalty needed was more incest.

How would incest have negative effects with 2 pure creatures ?

cousin marriage is actually ok mostly, the danger is overblown

t. Rasputin

It's fine as one offs here and there, when you keep doing it over consecutive generations you get things like Charles and his chin of doom

any Mariaboos got the photograph?

Fairly certain this is it user, taken in 1914

so bittersweet...
(how do you know tho?)

Actually the eternal anglo was responsible, the king of br*tain refused to have them picked up

Russians are eastern germanics in denial, the varangians and kievan rus ruthenians came from sweden

>The British king decides immigration
Can you at least blame the parliament, which is the body with the power to enforce things like that?

I'm sure there's more footage with her, we just don't have public access to it.

Anyone else pissed at the Russian archives for banning that guy who used to take hi-res scans of the Romanov personal albums (with all the rare and awesome photos--he paid to do so, mind you) just so they can upload their own versions with giant watermarks? He had to delete his blog, too.

still mad at myself for only saving a few of them

I don't know it absolutely, just from some digging around, can't go back in time its sad to say...
Have a nurse Maria tho

I never knew about him, but thats a massive shame, especially that he had to delete all his images.

How many times do you think Mountbatten blew his load to her picture? Do you think he would've uploaded cum tributes to Veeky Forums if he were still alive?

He'd have a dakimakura of her for sure

It's such a shame, for sure...

First they changed the rules at the archives which made it harder for him to do hi-res. It used to be $20 scan for the entire album page, which could have anywhere from 5 to 15 or so photos. Then they changed the rules to make it $30 per PHOTO.... so it would have cost hundreds for each page and thousands per album. Then they started letting him take photographs of the album pages for $15 each page, though obviously it was a huge drop in quality. Then they stopped allowing people to come in and get hi-res scans altogether, now you have to go through licensing channels and all that shebang and it's crazy expensive.

Technically I suppose he didn't "have" to delete his blog since the images are in the public domain even in Russia, but, I would imagine it's easier to delete it than fight a state-funded museum about it.

Although he wasn't without he faults. A few years back he'd deleted his blog after sperging out because people were doing colorizations of the scans he uploaded, and he considered the colorizations "sacrilegious" to the photos. He did come back a few weeks later.

lmao, she'd probably end up on a Pictures you shouldn't share thread on /b/

Jesus, its a shame the archive had to be so damn money-grabbing that they upped the prices ridiculously, especially now with the licensing issue you mentioned. I did laugh a little where he sperged out over colourisations though

I think he felt he was a "curator" of the images, and that because he spent his time/money on providing people with rare Romanov images, people were supposed to merely gaze/appreciate rather than use the photos themselves. But that's the reality you accept when you upload public domain images online, whether you spent money to get them or not.

You said it exactly, if its public domain then people can do whatever they want with them irregardless of how he feels of any alteration. I quite like some colourations if they're done well, like the one you've uploaded they can add life to an image and make it more real.

. . . to cuck billions

>I quite like some colourations if they're done well, like the one you've uploaded they can add life to an image and make it more real.

Same. I've even seen a few colorizations of Romanov footage which is nice. Of course I can't find them now that I want to find them!

Some can look almost texture-less because it hasn't been done well, but a good one really can add some connection to what is going on in the image. A new layer of context

Bad for morale if the Imperial family takes off in the middle of a war, and then it was too late.

Murderous thug that also tortured people. Deserved what he got but not what he deserved. The only good Imperialist is a dead one.

He tortured IRA prisoners. Meant as a deterrent to future abuses.

Do you have more rare pictures of Maria user ?

T.paddy scum

>ywn live in alternate universe where Maria somehow escapes and marries Mountbatten in the political upheaval of World War I, and the Romanov dynasty is reborn in India.

Do you think he'd offer that drawfag who does pregnant Anne Frank porn his weight in gold to draw hentai of Maria?

Who would have Maria sided with?

For Dixie land of course

>ywn live in the timeline where Confederate victory in the Civil War leads to pregnant Anne Frank, pregnant Rutka Laskier, and pregnant Romanov sisters

South, as it had idea of chivalry.

fuck off, nobody impregnate OTMA, they're pure

This.
Plus when they are killed they got told they were going to a photo shoot, he had no idea that his whole family was about to be killed.

Well it's better to being killed without fear, at least it was the case for the Tsar.
The poor children had all the time to live this moment and being stabed by a drunken fool who doesn't even kill you is the worse of death

They were murdered by jews so they could start communism.

They're royal Duchesses though. It's literally their duty to marry and bear children.

Bolsheviks truly destroyed Russia in every aspect.

If that was the case then they shouldn't have killed A good chunk of his family as collateral. If your reason for killing him is what you said it was, then incompetently blowing up a load of other people with him defeats the purpose.

Jesus, that I didn't know, wonder if the Tsar and the others had a real sense of forboding about it?

Just imagine how much better a timeline we would be in the if the fucking Bolsheviks had been exterminated? No fucking communism, at least not as we know it. No faggot champagne socialists today preaching muh evil capitalism and it wasn't real socialism

Just read wikipedia of the assassination of Romanov there is pretty much of it if you want to learn more

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Execution_of_the_Romanov_family#Execution
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_Duchess_Maria_Nikolaevna_of_Russia_(1899–1918)#Death

What a way to go, entire family killed, shot in the leg, head, attempted stabbings and finally beaten so badly the front of her skull was smashed in.

I think they had a sense that something was going to happen, but I don't think Nicolas or Alexandra thought they would execute his entire family. It was either the day before or perhaps 2 days before they were killed that they had a big religious service with clergy who came in from the town. Yet the day of their execution things went on as normal. In her last diary entry the empress merely mentions that the kitchen boy was sent off, and something like, "I wonder if they are telling the truth [about his uncle having sent for him] and if we shall see him again..." In truth, the uncle had been executed weeks prior for willingly serving the Romanovs.

thanks

that would be timeline without G*rmans

A good timeline so

>IRA
>pulling of a nice, clean assassination without any collateral damage
Pick one.

didn't Maria flirt around with a guard or something?

flirt ? she was just talking I guess. When you can't get outside of a house and have nothing to do you have to find something to do, in this case talking.

All of the daughters, though Olga did it to a lesser extent, tried to be friendly and talk with the guards, many of whom were either the same age or only a few years older than they were.

It was one of the reasons the guards were being routinely taken away during the weeks leading up to the execution--Yurovsky was authorizing investigations to see who might be sympathetic to the family and thus might not obey orders to kill them.

One guard was caught taking Maria aside and giving her a cake he had brought from home on her birthday. This violated about 37834398 rules and he was removed from Ipatiev the next day.

Over time this has spun into everything from "Maria flirted with guards" to "Maria and this guard were having an affair!" to "She was pregnant with his CHILD!"

Didn't Maria become pregnant with the guard's child (totally not trying to turn it into a meme like we've collectively done with Anne Frank :D)?

He was heavily advised to by his extended family in Europe before it was too late, but he wouldn't because it would be beneath his dignity as King no matter the odds.

He was going to rule or go down with the ship, and at a certain point it was too late to save anyone. George V had to play realpolitik in letting Russian revolution play out on its own due to rising revolutionary sentiment but later expressed regret at not helping them get out.

Leaving this here

Yeah and then Rasputin had to abort it, totally shocked when I found out about that.

>Inb4 phoneposting

I still want to believe this is not the truth and that Maria and Anastasia were just shot...
>feel bad man
