The genuine events that disadvantageous the role of the Romanovs were diligently hushed up and distorted. And above all, this concerns the relations of the Romanovs with the Russian Orthodox Church, their rejection of a Russian national character, customs of the Russian people. Noble historiography usually went around "sharp corners", silented the most characteristic episodes of this struggle, which was actually carried out before the beginning of the reign of Nicholas I.
