HAREM: A Touch of PreSocratics

by Haluk Çay

In a sense, the First World War was the battle of cousins. The financiers of the war decided to erase the last traces of the Russian Empire from history. They had already identified the most suitable employer to achieve their goals. Kaiser Wilhelm the second. They knew the Kaiser's weakness for Tsarina Aleksandra Fyodorovna, who was the wife of the last Russian Tsar Nicholas the second. It didn't take long for the Kaiser to find the right shooter for the job. He was Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov, who was later known as Lenin. Lenin's brother Aleksandr Ulyanov was executed for the assassination of Tsar Alexander III. According to the agreements of the Kaiser and Lenin, the Tsar would be killed. The Tsar's family would be sent to the Kaiser. But Lenin did not obey the agreement, thinking that the Kaiser would betray him. The execution, which took place on July 17, 1918, at 01:00, was concluded as neither the Kaiser nor Lenin had planned. Maria and her brother Alexei were able to survive with the help of the young Prince, whom Maria had met at a prom in Romania. This book is about the lives of Maria and Alexei after July 17, 1918.
