Should/can/will Russia restore the Imperial House of Romanov and crown a Tsar?

It shouldn't. It couldn't realistically. Ultimately it wont.





Monarchism is an extremely anachronistic form of government; the Romanov dynasty was bloodily done away with in 1917, it hardly seems likely that almost a century later the Russian people would begin to support such an insitution again, especially as most of the basis of support for the Russian monarchy has since dissipated (the nobility and gentry who also have been increasingly outdated).

Should/can/will Russia restore the Imperial House of Romanov and crown a Tsar?
ummm. no. France has a better chance of restoring the Bourbons
Reply:It cannot because there are no legitimate heir to the throne, by the laws of heritage by Alexander II. Monarchism is very much alive.
