  1. february revolution

    The February Revolution was a major social and political uprising in Russia that began in February 1917. It led to the abdication of Tsar Nicholas II, the end of the Russian Empire, and the start of a provisional government, marking a significant phase in the overthrow of the centuries-old Romanov dynasty. The February Revolution was later followed by the October Revolution in the same year that led to the establishment of the Soviet Union. The revolution was triggered by various factors including military failures, food shortages, and growing public discontent.

  1. February Revolution

    The February Revolution of 1917 was the first of two revolutions in Russia in 1917. It was centered on Petrograd, then the capital, on Women's Day in March. The revolution, confined to the capital and its vicinity and lasting less than a week, involved mass demonstrations and armed clashes with police and gendarmes, the last loyal forces of the Russian monarchy. In the last days mutinous Russian Army forces sided with the revolutionaries. The immediate result of the revolution was the abdication of Tsar Nicholas II, the end of the Romanov dynasty, and the end of the Russian Empire. The Tsar was replaced by a Russian Provisional Government under Prince Georgy Lvov. The Provisional Government was an alliance between liberals and socialists who wanted political reform. They set up a democratically-elected executive and constituent assembly. At the same time, socialists also formed the Petrograd Soviet, which ruled alongside the Provisional Government, an arrangement termed Dual Power. This revolution appeared to break out spontaneously, without any real leadership or formal planning. Russia had been suffering from a number of economic and social problems, which were compounded by the impact of World War I. Bread rioters and industrial strikers were joined on the streets by disaffected soldiers from the city's garrison. As more and more troops deserted, and with loyal troops away at the Front, the city fell into a state of chaos, leading to the overthrow of the Tsar.
