Three people claimed to be the youngest son of this formidable Russian ruler, who reigned from 1547-1584, and was the first to use the title of Czar of Russia. The imposter sons were known as False Dmitry I, False Dmitry II and False Dmitry III. In fact, False Dmitiri I was so successful in gaining support for his right to the throne that he actually became Czar of Russia for 11 months between 1605 and 1606. And, not only that, his wife then accepted False Dmitry II as her fallen husband. Which Czar did these men claim to be related to?
