Commentary
Nicolas Ier (7/07/1796-2/03/1855), second fils de Paul Ier, est le frère d'Alexandre Ier et du grand-duc Constantin. À la mort de son frère Alexandre Ier, le 1er décembre 1825, et après le renoncement de son frère Constantin, il devient tsar de toutes les Russies et commence par réprimer le mouvement libéral des Décembristes puis le soulèvement de Pologne en 1831. Après avoir favorisé la libération de la Grèce, il se pose comme un défenseur des Slaves et s'oppose aux Turcs. Il trouve sur sa route les Anglais et les Français. Il meurt avant la défaite de la guerre de Crimée.
