		If the riddle of the blood disorder that helped bring down Russia's Imperial Empire is to be solved, we must first find the truth about a holy man's influence on the lives of an Empress and her son.

		The entire story of Tsar Nicholas II and his Empress Alexandra centres on the Spala episode of October 1912 when their son Alexei appeared to be on the brink of death.

	Damn Interesting » The Death of Grigory Rasputin
		On the night of December 17th, 1916, the Great Duke Dmitri Romanov, Prince Felix Yussupov, Vladimir Purishkevich (a member of the Russian Parliament), and Dr. Lazaret invited Rasputin to the Yussupov palace under the pretence of meeting (and according to one historian, to heal) Felix's wife Irina.
		I believe he was introduced to the Romanov family through a friend of Alexandra's, I will have to double check the source, but I think her name was Verobyova (who actually lived through the revolution with only a bit of jail time).
		And two, the reason that the Romanovs were the last was that Nikolai loved his wife and was rather weak in that regard.

		And I confess that when I read about those priceless crystal glasses from the Hermitage being smashed at the celebration of his daughter's wedding some of the attraction of the name was lost as well.

		Romanov was in charge of the military industrial complex and had the support of the military - but his position was severely weakened by the death of the influential defence minister, Dmitri Ustinov, at the end of December 1984.
		Grishin, followed by Romanov, backed Gromyko, knowing that the result was pre-ordained.

		The other two names widely mentioned are Mikhail Gorbachev, the youngest Politburo member at 52 years old, and Grigory Romanov, the hard line Leningrad Communist Party chief.
		But Beissinger said that Romanov was the most likely choice because he is the most "staid and conservative" of the three possible presidents.
		Chemenko, at 72, is too old and would constitute "another caretaker government," while Gorbachev at 52, is "too young and would scare conservatives," he said.

		The real struggle for power began to take shape last year between Mikhail Gorbachev--at 52, the most competent mover and shaker to hit the Kremlin in some decades--and Grigory Romanov, the toughplaying Leningrad Party boss who recently acquired a post in Moscow in order to be at the center of power and intrigue.
		Andropov died before either man was in a position to succeed him, but Romanov and Gorbachev have the consolation of knowing that, at 72, Chernenko should not be around long--which is probably why they supported him.

		In 1613 Mikhail Fedorovich Romanov (1596-1651) was elected the Tsar of Russia.
		Following in the footsteps of such past rulers as Ivan the Terrible, Peter the Great, Stalin, and Brezhnev, Gorbachev inherited a stagnating economy, an entrenched bureaucracy, and a population that had lived in fear and mistrust of their previous leaders.
		Gorbachev's first actions were to shut down the production and sale of vodka and to ardently pursue Andropov's anticorruption campaign; one of the first to go was Leningrad party boss Grigory Romanov.

		In those days, however, the head of the local Soviet was not the equivalent of the mayor in post-Soviet Russia, but, rather, number two in the hierarchy to the Party First Secretary.
		Accordingly, it was another promotion for Zaikov when he became First Secretary of the more powerful Leningrad regional party committee in succession to Grigory Romanov in 1983.
		Thus Zaikov had already achieved some experience of local administration before the new Soviet leader, Mikhail Gorbachev, brought him to Moscow as a secretary of the Central Committee in 1985 and promoted him to full membership of the Politburo a year later.

		As Rus-sians are prone to do, we spent much of the night discussing life in general and the latest developments in particular, and one thing that gentleman said grimly about Ligachev sank deep in my mind:
		Interestingly, Gorbachev does not say a single word in his memoirs about his reasons for Romanov's expulsion, stating baldly that he frankly suggested to the man that "there was no place for him in the leadership." Romanov "wept a little, but eventually accepted" his fate, becoming a non-person overnight.
