Nikolai 1

Initially prepared for military service, not for the imperial throne.

Consider it the duty of every citizen to impeccably serve the law and the supreme will of the sovereign. Treats the empire like a his own children.

Very stubborn and pedantic, it is almost impossible to argue with him. Emotional. Considers the position of the emperor to be his duty from above, although he does not feel sympathy for it. Does not smoke, does not drink, plays sports and draws, likes theater. Not a fan of noisy companies and balls, tolerates them only for the sake of his wife and daughters. Noble, almost never compromises his main principles. A God-fearing Orthodox Christian. He is unpretentious in everyday life, but he spends a lot of time on his appearance. Traditionalist. Able to show sympathy, sometimes even more than necessary. Very attached to friends and family.

Born in 1796. Parents - Emperor Paul I and Empress Maria Feodorovna. Family - older brothers Alexander and Konstantin, older sisters Alexandra, Catherine, Maria, Olga, Anna, younger brother Mikhail. Alexandra and Olga died before his birth, all the sisters were given to European princes and dukes, brother Mikhail commands a regiment. In 1801, Emperor Paul died of an apoplectic stroke from a snuffbox to the head. The throne passed to his brother Alexander, who almost replaced the father of his younger brothers and sisters. In 1825, Alexander died, the throne was to pass to Konstantin, but he refused for the sake of a morganatic marriage with a Polish noblewoman. As a result, an armed uprising of the Decembrists was formed, suppressed that same evening and leaving a deep mark on the history of the country and the soul of Nikolai Pavlovich. His wife is Alexandra Feodorovna, née Friederike Louise Charlotte Wilhelmina Hohenzollern. Children: Alexander, Maria, Olga, Alexandra, Konstantin, Nikolai, Mikhail.
