  1. The cartoon was meant as entertainment for children. It was veeeery far from the truth of what happened. If you're really interested, there are a thousand books and scholarly entries even online that can give you the real story.


  2. Don't be confused. The cartoon doesn't tell what actually happened to the Grand Duchess. The real Anastasia never escaped through a wall in the palace. She was taken along with her mother, father, sisters and brother under house arrest to a house called "Ipatiev House" and one night, very late, they were all taken to the basement and shot by a group of revolutionaries. The remains were buried in the woods until aprox. ten years ago. (No one knew were the Imperial family was buried for 90 years until they were discovered- that's why there were many rumours of survival) But then they discovered that two bodies were missing- Anastasia (Russian's claims it was her sister Marie) and her little brother, Alexei.

    But their bodies have finally been found last year, in a pit close to the one were the rest of the family was buried. Right now, the remains are undergoing DNA tests to comfirm if they really are the missind kids, though forenses are very sure. The little boy's remains were in the exact same sailor suit the tzarevich used to wear. This means that Anastasia never survived.

    Here, take a look at this forum (The most well reputed reserchears and historians comment here and you'll learn a lot):

  3. Her Imperial Highness Grand Duchess Anastasia of Russia (Anastasia Nikolaevna Romanova (June 18,1901 — July 17, 1918), was the youngest daughter of Czar Nicholas II of Russia, the last sovereign of Imperial Russia, and his wife Alexandra Fyodorovna. When Anastasia was born, her parents and extended family were disappointed to have a fourth daughter. Tsar Nicholas II went for a long walk to compose himself before going to visit Tsarina Alexandra and the newborn Anastasia for the first time. One meaning of her name is "the breaker of chains" or "the prison opener." The fourth grand duchess received her name because, in honor of her birth, her father pardoned and reinstated students who had been imprisoned for participating in riots in St. Petersburg and Moscow the previous winter.

    Another meaning of the name is "of the resurrection," a fact often alluded to later in stories about her rumored survival. Anastasia's title is most precisely translated as "Grand Princess," meaning that Anastasia, as an "Imperial Highness" was higher in rank than other Princesses in Europe who were "Royal Highnesses." The Tsar's children were raised as simply as possible. They slept on hard camp cots without pillows, except when they were ill, took cold baths in the morning, and were expected to tidy their rooms and do needlework to be sold at various charity events when they were not otherwise occupied. Most in the household, including the servants, generally called the Grand Duchess by her first name and patronym, Anastasia Nikolaevna, and did not use her title or "Her Imperial Highness." She was occasionally called by the French version of her name, "Anastasie," or by the Russian nicknames "Nastya," "Nastas," or "Nastenka." Other family nicknames for Anastasia were "Malenkaya," meaning "little (one)," or "shvibzik," the Russian word for "imp."

    Living up to her nicknames, young Anastasia grew into a vivacious and energetic child, described as short and inclined to be chubby, with blue eyes and reddish-blonde hair. She is presumed to have been murdered with her family on July 17, 1918, by forces of the Bolshevik secret police. However, rumors have persisted of her possible escape since 1918. Several women have claimed to have been Anastasia, the most famous of whom was Anna Anderson. Anderson's body was cremated upon her death in 1984. Despite support for her claim from several people who knew Anastasia, DNA testing in 1994 on pieces of Anderson's tissue and hair showed no relation to DNA of the Grand Duchess.

    Russian archaeologist announced the discovery of two burned, partial skeletons at a bonfire site near Yekaterinburg that appeared to match the site described in Yurovsky's memoirs. Tests are still being conducted on the remains to determine whether they are the remains of the two missing Romanov children. There were some debates whether it was Anastasia's remains or her sister Maria's remains that were found in 1991, however, since all eleven remains are found now, it is only a question of which sister it belongs to. In 1991, bodies believed to be those of the Imperial Family and their servants were finally exhumed from a mass grave in the woods outside Yekaterinburg. Once opened, the excavators realized that instead of eleven sets of remains the grave held only nine. Alexei and Anastasia's bodies were missing from the family's grave.

  5. I read two stories;

    1. She and her brother (tsarevich Aleksey) were saved in Bulgaria (small village near Kazanlak);

    2.She ( after her raping) became a slave to a Turkey's sultan.

  6. In real life the woman who claimed she was Anastasia want the reall anatasia. This was discovered by DNA testing on her body. They got anastasia's dna from a prince in england who was anastasia blood brother (birthed by her mother Alexandra).  

    The remains of the real Anastasia are yet to be discovered
