Did Russia hate Nicholas II

Answer 1

cosmeticNot really, the political changes of implementing representative government were only . He was still an absolute monarch, he had to put down revolts prior to the bolschevic revolution. But even more than Nicholas, the people of Russia hated Rasputin.

The Russian people did like Nicholas the second. However they didn't like his German born wife Alexandra.

Answer 2

Tsar Nicholas II was the leader of Russia, its monarch. He was a hated leader for the reason of revolution. He impacted Russia because he wouldn't allow Russia to revolutionize in 1905. This led to the events of Bloody Sunday, in which hundreds of unarmed protesters were killed by Nicholas' Imperial Guard at the Winter Palace. This is one reason he impacted Russia. The other was that with no revolution meant they had no real power in the East when at war with Germany. They went to battle with pitchforks against machine guns... that's the extent he damaged Russia. He went to battle with them of course, but the losses made him a scapegoat, and he was eventually target by the Bolshevist movement, kidnapped and his entire family executed.

Nicholas II impacted Russia by avoiding revolution and being the main (regarded) reason for many military losses. There is another reason that you could look into which is the reign of Rasputin (You may have heard the name before but if not it's well worth looking into). He is regarded as an impact to Russia by the Tsar, and his affiliation with the Tsarina is a conspiracy but it showed some cracks in Nicholas' rule.
