Nicholas the second was put in place to be the new Czar when his father abdicated. The Russian people felt as though the new czar was too soft and weak. The czar himself felt as though he did not qualify for the job, since his people were more inclined to oppose him. The Russians were going in to poverty, hunger, civil unrest, and winter cold. After his fame ended, Vladimir Lenin came home from exile and took over Russia by influence. Russia officially became a worker's class and intellectuals rule, rather than an aristocratic rule. Over the next few years of Lenin rule, Russia began to embrace the Communists movement. Had the czar and his family not been killed, the czars and Imperial Russia may be still in effect today. There might've been the czar's son to rule later on, then his son, and his son. They might still be in economic turmoil, because if Nicholas was a weak emperor, it meant that he was not prepared to be emperor, so he might have taught his son all that he knew which wasn't much.
The Russian Revolution took place in 1917 at the end of World War I. It removed Russia from the war and brought about the transformation of the Russian Empire into the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, replacing Russia’s traditional monarchy with the world’s first Communist state.
The Russian Revolution was caused by thousands of unarmed workers marching to czar’s Winter Palace in St. Petersburg. The workers planned on asking Nicholas II for reforms. However the government troops fired and killed hundreds of the workers. There were several series of these revolutions through out Russia. One of those revolutions was the February Revolution. The February Revolution was one of the disastrous events that lead to the World War I. The Russians lost thousands and thousands of people in the revolutions and the World Wars. If the revolutions or World War I did not take place the Russians would have several thousand people still living today. However, the need for work and government stability was needed so the Russians went to war for a solution.
The Russian Revolution, took place in 1917 and contributed greatly to the outcome of World War 1. The Revolution consisted of Tsar Nicholas II being overthrown and Lenin and the Bolsheviks taking power. A major event the had taken place during the Russian Revolution was the February Revolution which was because by an "uproar of civil and military unrest. The primary factors that led to this uproar was because the common people felt that they were too many Tsars and acristocrats. This population was said to be (by the common people) complicated and treated the peasants cruel by patricians, poor working decisions, food shortage and military failures. In 1914, Archduke Franz Ferdinand was assassinated by political activists in Serbia. In addition, the Austro-Hungarian Empire declared was in the neighboring regions. As a result, when Serbia discovered the news, they turned to Russia as their allies. Nicholas II, found great joy in helping the Serbians seek victory because Austria had already been an enemy and he wanted his country to gain redemption for the tremendous loss in the Russo-Japanese war. Russia entering into the war was disastrous and resulted in the slaughter of thousands of boys who were just placed on the front line to die. Because they suffered a great loss just in their first battle to Germany left food and oil shortages in the homelands, eventually making the Tsar and Imperial regime to fall apart. Taking over the thrown was Vladimir Lenin. He sought to make the country more communistic rather than aristocratic. Hearing the complaints of the peasants, he Russia began to finally serve the peasants by making life a little easier for them. Before his death in 1923, Lenin established the Soviet Union in 1922, and the Communist Party remained in power until 1991 when the USSR had disintegrated. If Nicholas II would have not entered the Revolution, the outcome of the revolution would have never been in full effect. Lenin would probably never gained power over Russia causing the common peoples voices to still gain no recognition by mens of change of the empire. Because Nicholas II had little experience, most likely, in battle Russia would have lost to a foreign country causing the opponents to throw the regime out of power (instead of just falling apart due to economic downfall), causing Russia to be under a dictatorship. -Russian Revolution 1917
The Russian Revolution was a series of revolutions that occurred in 1917, which ultimately led to the creation of the Soviet Union. This Revolution also destroyed the Tsarist autocracy in February of 1917, when the Tsar was overthrown and replaced by a “provisional government.” Later, in October of that year, this government was then replaced with a communist government instead.
During the February revolution in Russia, while the Provisional government continued a war on Germany, different socialist factions insisted that Russia pull out of the war. These socialists, including the Bolsheviks, formed militias later known as the Red Army. Later that year, the Provisional Government was overthrown by these efforts, and the Bolsheviks were able to take power and end the war with Germany with the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk in March of the following year.
Thus, Germany was able to send the troops defending the Eastern Front to France and Belgium instead. However, once Russia had abandoned the war, another powerful nation took their position as an ally of France. Although Germany was now able to send their troops and resources to France, this clearly did not work in their favor as they presumed. Once the United States stepped into World War I, due to events such as the Zimmerman telegram and the sinking of the Lusitania, the Allies were more likely to win this war. One of the reasons why America impacted World War I was their supply of troops and an abundance of vital resources for the other Allies.
Suppose the Russian Revolution had never occurred. How would this have affected the outcome of World War I? In my opinion, the victory of the Allies would have been more assured because, no matter what, the United States would have also entered the war as an ally to France. Not only was America an ally to France, but there were plenty of other reasons—especially the sinking of the Lusitania—which would still have led the U.S. to becoming a part of the Allies. Ultimately, I believe the Russian Revolution had more of an effect on that nation economically and politically, rather than having a great effect on the outcome of World War I.
The Russian Revolution, to my surprise, remains a name that categorizes a series of revolutions that took place in Russia during 1917. Also called the Bolshevik Revolution, this war consisted of two revolutions: The February Revolution and the October Revolution. These revolutions destroyed the Tsarist autocracy, and sparked the manifestation of the Soviet Union. The Tsar was deposed and replaced by a provisional government in the first revolution of February 1917 In the second revolution, during October, the Provisional Government was removed and replaced with a Communist inspired government.
In the February Revolution, the Tsar renounced his throne and the Provisional Government took power. The Imperial Parliament assumed control of the country, forming the Russian Provisional Government. “The army leadership felt they did not have the means to suppress the revolution and Tsar Nicholas II of Russia, the last Tsar of Russia, abdicated. The Soviets (workers' councils), which were led by more radical socialist factions, initially permitted the Provisional Government to rule, but insisted on a prerogative to influence the government and control various militias” (Wikipedia). Eventually, power was shared the Provisional Government held state power while the Soviets “had the allegiance of the lower-class citizens and “the political left”. Corruption, mutiny, and disagreement still wove its wave in and out of the quarreling times. “When the Provisional Government chose to continue fighting the war with Germany, the Bolsheviks and other socialist factions campaigned for the abandonment of the war effort”.
Subsequently, the October Revolution displayed the Provisional Government being overthrown in St. Petersburg by Vladimir Lenin, the Bolsheviks and Soviets. The Bolsheviks appointed themselves as leaders of various government ministries and seized control of the countryside. In March of 1918, the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk was signed by the Bolsheviks in order to dilute the rising quarrels between Russia and Germany.
Through the Zimmerman telegram and the sinking of the Lusitania, one can see the examples of the effects the Russian Revolution had on WWI. New alliances were built and the power greatly shifted. In turn, the United States could not stand idle and took part in the war. With Russia’s defeat at the Eastern Front to France and Belgium and the abandonment of Russia from the war had an effect on WWI. Moreover, the Russian Revolution resulted in the Russia backing out of WWI, and ultimately ending the world war. The Russian Revolution allowed the world to end quicker. If the Russian Revolution did not occur, fighting would have been pointless. WWI seemed to be a battle fit for America and the Allies. World War I would have last FOREVERRRRRRRRRRRR!
Prior to the Russian Revolution, the war looked won alone by just Russia and an even more certain victory was perceived when France and Great Britain joined as allies. But their victory was becoming uncertain when Russian blood was beginning to be split by their own neighbors; their own countrymen rioting against one another in hopes of a new government. This revolution led to the creation of what was the Soviet Union. The revolution also in effect, was a reason Russia pulled out from the war. In response to this, the United States decided to aid in the war efforts so Germany could not win. But what would have had happened if Russia did not have a revolution? In theory, even more Russia soldiers would have died due to their careless war-tatics which just involved sending troop after troop, wave after wave. As well, they would not have become the communist nation we grew so fond of in the decades to come. More practically, the race of arms and technology more than likely would not have occurred. Our want to end communism may have not occurred for the only other threat to us was the small island 90 miles from our coast. Soviet Russia plays a big part in our history to come after WW1. Without it, who knows how the world would have turned out. A sadden thought is that their would have been no plot for the Hunt of the Red October. Just as well, without the 'race' between the two countries, technology might not have developed as rapidly as it did and could have altered the way I would be writing this paper right now.
The Russian Revolution was basically a civil war within Russia. This revolution also caused Russia to back out of the war giving their enemies comfort in having not to worry about the west side of them. Even though many of the citizens did not wan to go to war Russia fought and was constantly throwing its men to the front lines. If there was not a revolution Russia would have continued fighting and greatly changing the war giving more pressure to their enemies. Russia leaving the war was probably something that made the war end faster.
The Russian Revolution was a battle for a new ruler, a way for the people to have change, and to have prospers lives . If the Russian Revolution never happened a lot would have changed. In fact, the Russian Revolution is what changed the outcome of World War 1. Hungary at this time was fighting an all border war. Hungary had Britain and France on one side and Russia on the other. If Russian had stayed they could have ended the war, but because it did America had to step in. And it is also the reason why Britain found it necessary to seek America for help. That is why Britain showed America that Hungary was trying to overtake them by using Mexico. That set America on edge, and America decide to step in and fight.
In 1917 there were actually two revolutions in Russia. One was the February Revolution in which the Tsar abdicated his throne and the Provisional Government took power. The other was the October Revolution in which the Provisional Government was overthrown by the Bolsheviks. In 1917 Russia was again at war (WWI) and they were losing to the Germans mainly because they lacked the modern industry to support its war effort and didn't have an adequate railroad system to get supplies to the front. The Bolsheviks felt that Russia should make peace with Germany and get out of the war immediately. So Russia evently leaves the war because a civil war is starteing to brake out in Russia. The Russians lost many people during this civil war. The Russian Revolution would last up to 1920 were the Bolsheviks now known as the Communists were left in power. The Russian Revolution affect the outcome of WWI in a few ways. The Russian leaving the war gave the reason for Britain to ask America for help, and since Russia step out America had to step in because now Germany was trying to take them over by using Mexico. If Russia did not have the Revolution and stayed in the war i believe they could of end the war a lot quicker and a lot more people would have been alive. Inculding Nicholas II of Russia and his family. They would probably still be in power today. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_Revolution_(1917) http://depts.washington.edu/baltic/papers/russianrevolution.htm
