Alexander II of Russia

Alexander II (29 April 1818 – 13 March 1881), also known as Alexander the Liberator, was the Emperor of the Russian Empire from 3 March 1855 until his assassination in 1881. He was also the King of Poland and the Grand Duke of Finland. Secretly, he was a supporter of the Templar Order.

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. After numerous failed attempts, the Assassins, led by Sofia Perovskya, killed Alexander in a bomb attack on the imperial carriage in Saint Petersburg in 1881.
