Further information:

Tsar Nicholas II, or Nikolai Romanov, was ill-prepared to receive the crown when his father died in 1894. His inability to rule effectively was compounded by a number of difficult events during his reign.

The failure of the Russo-Japanese War led to the Russian Revolution of 1905, which Nicholas diffused only after signing a manifesto promising representative government and basic civil liberties in Russia. However, he recanted on a number of his promises, allowing the Bolsheviks and other revolutionary groups to gain wide support. When World War I broke out in 1914, Russia immediately attacked the German province of East Prussia even though it was unprepared. The Germans mobilised their armies efficiently and completely defeated the two invading Russian armies.

The cumulative effect of these events was that Russia suffered severe food shortages, soldiers became war-weary, and morale was at an all-time low. On 15 March 1917, Nicholas was forced to abdicate amidst civil war. A year later, on 17 July 1918, he and his wife, together with their five children, the family doctor and three attendants, were taken to the cellar of a house in Yekatarinburg, where they were executed by a firing squad.

Answer 3

In February, 1917 (March 1917 New Style) the people of Petrograd broke out into uncontrollable demonstrations and near riots. They consisted of women who were sick of waiting on lines for bread for hours in the cold, factory workers who had just lost jobs and eventually soldiers from the city's garrison. Nicholas II tried to return to the city but was unable to and was convinced by his ministers that he no longer had command of the armed forces or police force. He realized that the only way to stop the chaos was to abdicate the throne, which he did ending the 300 year long Romanov dynasty.
