Known as a brute of a man who strived to be more like his subjects in his appearance, it was said that he could tear a deck of cards in half with his bare hands. He embodied what most would consider a true Russian - docile, stoic, and unempathetic. He was an aggressive Russian nationalist who believed Russia should strictly contain singular values and not accommodate to foreigners at all.
Alexander III would grow up with little hope of becoming Czar as he was second in line after his brother.
