Alexander II Nikolaievich (Russian: Александр II Николаевич; 1818 – 1881), born Alexander Nikolaievich Romanov, also known as Alexander the Liberator, was the Emperor of the Russian Empire from 3 March 1855 until his assassination in 1881, the King of Congress Poland and the Grand Duke of Finland. Secretly, he was influenced by the Templar Order.[1] He was succeeded by his son Alexander III.
Eventually, the Tsar's promises began to fall flat, and so a group of revolutionaries in Russia known as the People's Will began plotting Alexander's murder. Despite numerous failed attempts that began in 1866 with a botched shooting by Russian Assassin Dmitry Karakozov,[2] the Assassins Ignacy Hryniewiecki[3] and Nikolai Rysakov[4] killed Alexander in 1881 with a bomb attack on the Imperial carriage in Saint Petersburg.[1]
