Best Answer

The last Tsar of Imperial Russia was Nicholas II of Russia, formerly known as Nikolay Alexandrovich Romanov. On March 22 1917, he was put under house arrest and later he and his family were executed under the Bolsheviks. It was presumed a true socialist revolution would be impossible if there was any legitimate claim to the throne.
