Answer:Russian economy was primarily agricultural till the Russian Revolution of 1917.Explanation:The Revolution of 1905 led to efforts to establish a constitutional monarchy but these attempts were thwarted by the Tsar
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 February Revolution (March 1917) was a revolution focused around Petrograd (now Saint Petersburg), the capital of Russia at that time. In the chaos, members of the Imperial parliament (the Duma) assumed control of the country, forming the Russian Provisional Government which was heavily dominated by the interests of large capitalists and the noble aristocracy. The army leadership felt they did not have the means to suppress the revolution, resulting in Tsar Nicholas's abdication. The Soviets, which were dominated by soldiers and the urban industrial working class, initially permitted the Provisional Government to rule, but insisted on a prerogative to influence the government and control various militias. The February Revolution took place in the context of heavy military setbacks during the First World War (1914–18), which left much of the Russian Army in a state of mutiny.
