As we all know, Nicholas Romanov fell in love with his Aunt Ella's sister when they met during Ella's wedding. Unfortunately for them, Alix fell to familial pressure and eventually married Albert Victor I, and the heartbroken Nicholas married Alix's cousin Margaret of Prussia. Their respective marriages were described to be cold and loveless, and Alix, a hemophilia carrier, passed down the royal disease to half of her sons with Victor. What would have happened if instead of falling to pressure, Alix pursued her romance with the Russian tsar and married him instead?
