Background
The visit of Nicholas II and Alexandra Feodorovna to Cherbourg and Paris, 5th - 8th October 1896, aroused immense enthusiasm - it is said some 4 million people were in Paris to see them. Since the understanding of 1891, to be formally confirmed in 1897 as an Alliance, France had seen Russia as almost their only ally.
