Question

Explain the five reasons why russian people wanted the tsar to withdtaw from the first world war?

Answer 1

Explanation:

In Russia, the war was initially popular and people agreed to Tsar Nicholas’ policies. The First World War on the eastern front differed from western front. In the west, armies fought from trenches along eastern France. In the east, armies fought battles with large casualties. Defeats were shocking and demoralising. As German armies further moved, the Russian army destroyed crops and buildings to prevent the enemy to enter easily. Destruction of crops and buildings led to over three million refugees in Russia. The situation discredited the government of the Tsar. Even soldiers did not like to fight such a war.
