Nicholas II created the Duma to represent the people in response to the revolution of 1905.

Tsar Nicholas II had two basic responses:

  • He created the Duma, supposedly to be a democratically elected legislative body to make laws the even the Tsar would have to obey. He soon began to ignore whatever it did and even dissolved the first one. He never let it become a true legislative body despite his promises.
  • He issued the October Manifesto which declared that the Russian people would have more personal freedoms than before. The Tsar also ignored these promises.

The Tsar's empty promises quelled the 1905 revolution, but his gradual failure to make good on his promises led to the people having a deep distrust of the Tsar and eventually when the February Revolution broke out in 1917, no one would accept his empty promises of reform and he was forced to abdicate the throne.
