Nicholas I of Russia assends to power

5 December, 2010 - Emperor Sephiroth II | 0 Comments

On December 5th 1825 shortly after the death of his brother Alexander I. Nikoli Pavlovich Romanov(sorry if my Russian is bad) rose to take the throne. But as he and his loyal troops headed for St. Petersburg's Senate square rebel army officers, the Decembrists gathered calling on people to overthrow the Tsar and make a constituition. Nicholas ordered his troops to fire on the rebels and the rebellion was over in the blink of an eye. Nicholas would become in his 30 year reign the cop who kept Europe safe for Monarchy.

I am back, yet i have noticed that this group has ground to a halt since i have been gone. Each and every member has the same rights as i in regards to announcments and comments! you are all FREE TO CREATE ANNOUNCMENTS! I trust in all members that they will not abuse this trust, yet still use it. the rules with regards to announcments have been made clear before yet i shall repeat again...
1- The announcment must be oriented around history, be it an interesting fact or an historical event, even a biography on a person.
2- It MUST NOT COME FROM WIKIPEDIA! not only is it unreliable but it just shows whoever is just copy pasting probably is ignorant about the subject and we don't want that!
3- just 3 a day! we do not want our page looking over crowded and we need to give people time to read them!!!!

thank you for reading this, post your announcments based on you specialities and bring this group back to life again!
THANK YOU
TSAR ALEXIS
