===Historical Background===
Historically, Alexander III is infamous in Russia for instuting pogroms against the Jews and overturning many of the reforms set in place by his father, Alexander II. The Tsar came to power just two weeks after his father had been murdered by revolutionaries. Alexander took revenge by executing the assassins, then built the massive cathedral of the Church of the Holy Savior of Spilled Blood on the site in St. Petersburg (Petrograd) were his father had been murdered. He then set about to stamp out all traces of revolutionary fever in Russia, while simultaneously continuing the policy of forced industrialization that his father had begun years before.
