Alexander I (Bonus)

Emperor Alexander I of Russian was considered the most romantic and melodramatic ruler in an age known for its melodrama and romance. He was a man raised and educated in the ideals of the Enlightenment and then expected to become the absolute ruler of the most autocratic county in the world. He was loved by the people and hailed as a savior, yet he would have traded his horse for a crown. In this bonus episode, I deep dive into the man that was Alexander Romanov. I wanted to show how his mind works and illustrate how and why he will act the way he does at the Congress of Vienna. This is a companion to the Vanity Fair in Vienna series. If you haven't listened to the first and second episodes, feel to listen to those first. Above all enjoy!!! Remember to subscribe! if like what you hear, please rate and review! All the Best, Thomas
