Answer 1

Explanation:

Kulaks: Kulaks were rich farmers. It is the Russian term for wealthy peasants who Stalin believed were hoarding grains to gain more profit. They were raided in 1928 and their supplies were confiscated. According to Marxism-leninism, kulaks were a class enemy of the poor peasants.

The Duma: It was the Russian Parliament. Czar Nicholas II held elections of the Duma but did not allow it to become a real representative body. Russian Parliament is still called Duma.

Women workers between 1900 and 1930: They made up 31% of the factory labour force by 1914, but were paid almost half and three-quarters of the wages given to men. The women workers led the way to strikes during the February Revolution. (d) The Liberals: They wanted a secular nation.
