Prince Rostov, performed by Abraham, the population is called "Prince Rostov from Rostov-on-Congo". And Gregory Orlova played Sasha Dhavan. Users write:

Prince Rostov is a completely real character, and he was white. What will win a white really existing character if in the artistic plan it will be black? I really do not understand this absurdity.

The same as the series liked the series, urge attentious to look at its creator.

And even in the tutors of the series, it is emphasized that only "sometimes truthful history."
