Heya

Here is your answer

________________

1) In 1914, war broke out between two European alliances –  Germany, Austria-Hungary and Turkey (the Central powers)  and France, Britain and Russia Each country had a global  empire and the war was fought outside Europe as well as in  Europe. This was the First World War.

2) In Russia, the war was initially popular and people rallied  around Tsar Nicholas II. As the war continued, though, the   Tsar refused to consult the main parties in the Duma. Support  wore thin.

3) Russia’s armies lost badly in Germany and Austria between  1914 and 1916. There were over 7 million causalities by  1917.

4) As they retreated, the Russian army destroyed crops and  buildings to prevent the enemy from being able to live off the  land. The destruction of crops and buildings led to over 3  million refugees in Russia. The situation discredited the  government and the Tsar. From being able to live off the  land.

5) The war also had a severe impact on industry. Russia’s own  industries were few in number and the country was cut off  from other suppliers of industrial goods.

6) Industrial equipment disintegrated more rapidly in Russia  than elsewhere in Europe. By 1916, railway lines began to  break down. Able-bodied men were called up to the war. As a  result, there were labor shortages and small workshops  producing essentials were shut down.

7) Large supplies of grain were sent to feed the army. For the  people in the cities, bread and flour became scarce. By the  winter of 1916, riots at bread shops were common
