Question

state the main event leading to the febraury revolution in petrograde

Answer 1

THE FEBRUARY REVOLUTION. -It removed Tsar Nicholas -II from the power, developed spontaneously out of a series of increasingly violent demonstratios and riots on the streets of Petrograd (St.Petersburg). Though the February revolution was a popular uprising it did not necessarily express the wishes of majority of the Russian population, as the event was primarily limited to the city of Petrograd. However, most of those who took power after the February revolution, in the provisional government ( the temporary government that replaced the tsar) and in the Petrograd Soviet can influential local council representing workers and soldiers in Petrograd) , generally favoured rule that was at least partially democratic.
