Alexandra Feodorovna, nascida princesa Alice de Hesse e Reno, foi a última Imperatriz da Rússia como consorte do imperador Nicolau II desde seu casamento em 1894 até sua abdicação forçada em março de 1917. Neta favorita da rainha Vitória, ela era, como sua avó, uma das mais famosas portadoras reais de hemofilia e deu à luz um herdeiro hemofílico, Alexei Nikolaevich, Czarevich da Rússia. A sua reputação de encorajar a resistência do marido à rendição da autoridade autocrática e a sua conhecida fé no místico russo Grigori Rasputin prejudicaram gravemente a sua popularidade e a da Dinastia Romanov nos seus últimos anos. Ela e sua família imediata foram todos assassinados enquanto estavam no cativeiro bolchevique em 1918, durante a Revolução Russa. Em 2000, a Igreja Ortodoxa Russa a canonizou como Santa Alexandra, a Portadora da Paixão.
Alexandra Feodorovna, Princess Alix of Hesse and by Rhine at birth, was the last Empress of Russia as the consort of Emperor Nicholas II from their marriage on 26 November [O.S. 14 November] 1894 until his forced abdication on 15 March [O.S. 2 March] 1917. A favourite granddaughter of Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom, she was, like her grandmother, one of the most famous royal carriers of haemophilia and bore a haemophiliac heir, Alexei Nikolaevich, Tsarevich of Russia. Her reputation for encouraging her husband's resistance to the surrender of autocratic authority and her known faith in the Russian mystic Grigori Rasputin severely damaged her popularity and that of the Romanov monarchy in its final years. She and her immediate family were all murdered while in Bolshevik captivity in 1918, during the Russian Revolution. In 2000, the Russian Orthodox Church canonized her as Saint Alexandra the Passion Bearer.
