The Story of Anastasia

I find that the Story of Anastasia and her family is very interesting, I just wonder if anyone from the family actually survived. Anastasia was born into a life of royalty as she was the daughter of the Tzar of Russia. She had three elder sisters and one brother in her family, she being the second youngest in her family. Unfortunately, Anastasia's brother was a hemophiliac and Anastasia's mother, Alix, was desperate to find any cure for her son. Alix was willing to try anything which drove her to accept the help of Rasputin, a man known for his evil deeds but also known for having mystic powers to heal sicknesses.
During this time Russia was engaged in World War World and Anastasia's father was having problems keeping control of the Russian people. Men and women from Petrograd and Moscow rioted against the Tzar causing a munity throughout Russia. On March 15, 1917, the Tzar was forced to relinquish his power over Russia and was held captive with his family at his winter castle. The final result of his captivity was that he and his family were brought into the basement of his castle and killed with machine guns.
The interesting twist to this story came when a young woman was found who called herself Anna Anderson. She was found on February 17, 1920, when she jumped off of a bridge in Berlin. She is now suspected to be Anastasia who survived the gun fire and bayonets and lives on today.
