Informacije o istraživanju

Nicholas II became czar in November 1894, and his coronation only took place in the spring of 1896, followed by a large popular festivity on the Khodynka field (near Moscow), where, due to poor organization, thousands of people were trampled on. At that time, 1389 people died. Although he was deeply affected by the tragedy, the Tsar was persuaded not to cancel the rest of the festivities and hesitated to punish those directly responsible, including his uncle, Grand Duke Serge. Eventually, only a few lower-ranking officials were dismissed, and the victims' families received compensation from the state.
