Question

Mention any four features of Russian economy at the beginning of 20th century class 9th

Answer 1

Before the 20th century, Russian society was still feudal.

Russia was ruled by an autocratic monarch called the Tsar. Russian society was still feudal.

In fact, serfs had been emancipated in Russia only in 1861. Even after emancipation, society still remained moored in a traditional hierarchical order.

There  were little signs of Russian moving towards a more democratic or liberal social and political order.

However, this began to change from 1905 after Russia lost the Russo-Japanese war.

The Tsar was widely blamed for the defeat.

The Revolution of 1905 led to efforts to establish a constitutional monarchy but these attempts were thwarted by the Tsar.

Russian economy was primarily agricultural till the Russian Revolution of 1917.

The level of industrialization was low and there were only about three million industrial workers.

Even these workers worked under appalling conditions at very low wages.

The condition of Russian agriculture was also poor.

Agricultural technology was still primitive and peasants could barely produce to feed themselves.
