Background on Chapter One
Log-In
Chapter One, simply put, is simply a start of the RP. Major characters are starting to be established. Of course, there are revolutionary thoughts going on in Russia, as the Former Prime Minister, Peter Stolypin, was assassinated at an opera house in 1911 - before the eyes of the Tsar and his two eldest daughters. The current Prime Minister, at this time, is Vladimir Kokovtsov, who is very pro-Tsar and is extremely conservative. The Duma, at this time, is currently in its Third Session. It is largely dominated by the wealthy, though there are more middle-class elements involved. The major keepers of law and order and those that manage to curb the activity of the Leftists Revolutionaries are the Okhranka - a secret police force that utilizes any means of violence necessary. In general, times are pretty good for the noble classes, though not so hot for the members of the peasantry, though a few improvements have since been made due to some of the reforms of Stolypin, which has created a slightly larger middle class. The peasants are becoming increasingly more disaffected, though they still are not entirely against the Tsar.

The days had been thoroughly interesting enough for Olga, though if only a bit mundane. Perhaps it was the magic of the Crimea that made things seem so much more spectacular than they actually were.

Alexei being the little boy that he was, and his 'brush with death', though it was largely self-imposed. The excitement of that was enough to have driven Alexandra crazy, though Alexandra was a woman with a quiet fortitude, and Olga knew that well.

Her father had met with Stolypin...whom Alexandra intently disliked. Anastasia, of course, had saw fit to excitedly run about and disregard teas. Marie and Tatiana were somewhere being cute.

Leaving Olga on the patio with some books, and she quietly read them as she occasionally took stock of the breathtaking view around her.
