Answer 4

Grigory Rasputin





Born in Siberia and a peasant for most of his early life, the self-proclaimed holy man Grigory Rasputin gained favor with the Russian imperial family in the early 1900s after he apparently healed the hemophiliac son of Emperor Nicolas II and Empress Alexandra Fyodorovna. Rumors that exaggerated Rasputin’s influence on the government alienated the Russian people from the imperial leadership and contributed to the growing tide of discontent that ultimately resulted in the Russian Revolution of 1917. Rasputin was assassinated by a group of aristocrats in 1916.
