Can you tell the difference between King George V and Tsar Nicholas II?

King George V of the United Kingdom and Emperor Nicholas II of the Russian Empire are often called “twins” as they look shockingly similar in appearance and have for almost all of their lives. While it is not exactly surprising that they look similar – Nicholas and George were both first cousins through their mothers; George’s mother, Queen Alexandra, and Nicholas’ mother, Empress Maria Feodorovna, were sisters. That is how they were related. However, even for cousins, King George and Tsar Nicholas’ similarity in appearance does surprise you as they could easily be brothers or even twins.
