As a world-renowned princess of the last century, Anastasia was the only heir to the Russian royal family. But for Tsarist Russia, the name was disgraced, and it was even ridiculed for more than half a century.
In 1917, with the abdication of Nicholas II, the Russian Empire, commonly known as Tsarist Russia, collapsed, and the Romanov dynasty came to an end. It is also a peaceful abdication, but the ending of Nicholas II and Puyi's are very different, Puyi can still live in the Forbidden City for more than ten years after abdication, and Nicholas II was executed a year later, his family scattered and fled, and his daughter was missing.
In this case, a girl known as the Tsar's princess appeared, but what everyone did not expect was that this girl was actually just a village girl. But this village girl deceived the entire Tsarist elders for half a century, and was held in the palm of her hand as the most precious princess, and finally provoked ridicule from all over the world. So how did this international giant deceiver change from a village girl to a princess?
In 1918, the family of Tsar Nicholas II was executed, but afterwards it was said that a girl in a white dress with blood was seen near the castle of Yekaterina, much like the Tsar's little princess Anastasia. Since then, the idea that the Tsarist princess is still alive has been circulating in the Soviet Union.
For a long time there have been women who claim to be Anastasia, but these people are either too different in age or they don't look the same as in the pictures. Until a young girl with amnesia, her appearance made people believe that the little princess of the Tsar was really still alive. Why?
This amnesiac girl is so similar that she is exactly the same as the princess in the photo. According to her, she escaped from the castle and fell into the river, hitting a stone in the head and losing her memory, and was later rescued by a soldier, and the two have lived together ever since. Not long ago, the soldier died, and the dead soldier said that when he saw her, she was wearing a white dress with blood. She also saw the photo and found that she looked very similar, so she rushed over to recognize her relatives.
The exiled members of the royal family all believed her words, and even the tsar's mother in Denmark approved of this granddaughter, not because of anything else, but because she looked so much like her, exactly the same as the little granddaughter in her mind. But even so, there is another agency that does not recognize her identity. That is the Swiss bank, why did even the queen believe it, but the Swiss bank did not agree?
It turned out that the Swiss bank contained a large amount of the Tsar's family's property, which was worth about tens of millions of dollars. And only the direct descendants of the Tsar were eligible to inherit, and if there was no little princess, then the property would have belonged to the Swiss bank, and they naturally did not believe Anna without evidence. In the end, UBS refused to hand over anna's deposits on the grounds that anna had no substantial evidence to prove her status as a descendant of the Tsar.
But Anna still lived in the castle as a princess, with a large number of servants and maids, not only eating and drinking, but also many rich people invited her to the banquet and offered to send her money. She began to enjoy the life of high society, living a luxurious paper drunk every day. These days continued until 1991, when the truth of the matter finally began to come to light.
The year 1991 was not only the collapse of the Soviet Union, but also the year in which the remains of the Tsar's family were discovered. After DNA testing by experts, it was found that only two members of the Tsar's family had escaped the murder, but not the little princess Anastasia. Looking at the corpses lying quietly on the ground, people found themselves deceived for more than 50 years. In the end, the fake Anna finally admitted that she was just a village girl, because she accidentally found that she looked very similar to Anna, so she wanted to try her luck and did not expect to really become a princess.
Although in 1991, the fake princess was driven out of the castle, but at that time it was close to the age of 80, she enjoyed the glory and wealth in her life, and the princess Cain was enough, and this international giant deception was not a loss. If it were you, would you be willing to be this fake princess?
