The March Revolution of 1917 in Russia was primarily initiated by widespread discontent among workers and soldiers, fueled by food shortages and the hardships of World War I. It began on International Women's Day, March 8, when women led protests in Petrograd (now St. Petersburg). The unrest quickly grew, with workers joining in strikes and demonstrations, leading to the abdication of Tsar Nicholas II and the eventual establishment of a provisional government. The revolution was largely driven by grassroots movements, rather than a single individual or group.
