The answer depends on which Anastasia you're referring to.
The Historical Anastasia
- Historical Anastasia was a real person, the youngest daughter of Tsar Nicholas II and Tsarina Alexandra of Russia.
- She was Caucasian in origin, with fair skin, blonde hair, and blue eyes.
- While there are claims of her survival, no credible evidence supports these claims.
Anastasia in Fiction
- Anastasia has been a popular subject in literature, film, and musical theatre.
- The fictional portrayals of Anastasia are often not limited by historical accuracy and can depict her with various ethnicities and appearances.
- For example, in the 1997 animated film Anastasia, the titular character is depicted with dark hair and brown eyes, which is not representative of the historical Anastasia.
Therefore, while the historical Anastasia was Caucasian, fictional portrayals of Anastasia can depict her with different ethnicities, including Black.
