Answers
Answer:
Bro here is your answer
Explanation:
1. The people of Russia lost faith in their king, and there was chaos and mistrust among the common people.
2. The policies implemented by the Tsar proved inefficient, and people were dissatisfied with the Tsar’s policies.
3. The Tsar not only imposed his policies on Russians but imposed several restrictions on the people.
4. Political activities were completely oppressed, and the voting rights were taken away, and nobody was allowed to question the policies implemented by Nicolas II (Tsar). He also dismissed the first Duma within 75 days.
5. The Tsar did not consult the Duma and took decisions on his own during the First World War, which resulted in massive casualties.
6. Crops were burnt which created a shortage of food for the Russian soldiers.
All these incidents resulted in the collapse of Tsarist autocracy.
Explanation:
The Tsar first dismissed the initial two Dumas and then packed the parliament with the conservatives.
During the First World War, the Tsar took decisions without consulting the Duma.
Large scale casualties of Russian soldiers in the war further alienated the people from the Tsar.
Burning of crops and buildings by the retreating Russian armies created a huge shortage of food in Russia.
All of these led to the collapse of the Tsarist autocracy in 1917.
