…Russia enters into a separate peace treaty, loses a third of its territories, pays a hundred tons of gold of indemnities, leaves the war. Germany, having freed a million people, attacks on the western front, achieves successes in the second battle on the Marne, but, exhausting resources, stops. With the mediation of the Americans, Chancellor Wilhelm II asks for peace and, on November 11, 1918, Germany will capitulate. Losses of all countries: 10 million military personnel, 12 million civilians; yet about 100 million people around the planet are dying from developing under conditions of malnutrition and stress, the mysterious flu is Spanish.
The code for this virus is the same as that of the relatively recent swine influenza pathogen, strain H1N1. However, at that time he had special properties – he quickly contacted the receptors of the upper respiratory tract, caused a violent reaction of the immune system, which kills more cells of his organism than «aliens». … Among the symptoms characterized by a bloody cough, pneumonia; sometimes the sick died the next day. In total, 26% of the Earth’s population was infected, the mortality rate reached 10%-20%, and strangely enough, healthy people aged from twenty to forty died. The epidemic appeared everywhere, but only in neutral Spain, unlike the media of the belligerent countries, the press loudly declared about it. No correlation was observed between the mortality of vaccinated and non-vaccinated people; The number of deaths among the vaccinated was even slightly above average. «Spaniard» is one of the greatest mysteries in the history of mankind and it seems that for some reason its very existence is being silenced.

It was believed that the monarch’s decisions are affected by the harmful advice of a person from the «dark people». Here, the «bad» Grigory Rasputin is destroyed. But, the actions and statements of Nicholas I after that become even more inconsequential. Now it is finally clear to everyone: morally ethically, intellectually, the monarchy is shamelessly naked.
Sane film on the topic, with a completely plausible depiction of entourage, the main actors of the revolution, at least in some episodes and somewhat prolonged – the film of American director Warren Beatty «The Reds» (1981).
In March 1917, under pressure from the top of the military command (including his close relative, ex-supreme commander-in-chief, Nikolai Nikolaevich («Lukavoy» – «Sly»)), Nicholas II abdicated.
