Nicholas II was the Czar of the Russian Empire.

Biography[]

After the Schmidt Mutiny, Tsar Nicholas ordered a purge of the Russian Sky Fleet, which was carried out by the Okhrana and Comptroller of the Navy (Russia) Yevgeniy Petrovich Ermolov.[1][2]

Along with most of his family, Nicholas II was assassinated in early 1911. Only his daughter Anastasia Romanov survived, and succeeded him.[3][4][2][5]

Historical Notes[]

Leviathans wiki works on the assumption that in the universe of Leviathans, events happened as they did in Real Life History except where they either explicitly did not or it would make no sense for them to have done so. "Czar Nicholas II Laid To Rest" states explicitly that Czar Nicholas II, his wife Alexandra, and all their immediate family save Anastasia were assassinated in March 1911. Anastasia becomes the next Czar, but her age is given as sixteen.[6]
In real life, Anastasia would have been almost ten years old on that date, while her eldest sibling Olga would have been fifteen and a half.[7][8] It is possible that their dates or order of birth are different in the Leviathans universe. The inclusion of Anastasia Romanov as a Leviathan Captain, per Anastasia Romanov Cruiser Pack, indicates that her age change is deliberate.
