Tsar Nicholas had started a war with Germany that he then lost, which often in history has caused the downfall of the regime responsible. And Nicholas was held directly responsible, since starting it had been his personal decision and because he had been foolish enough to assume actual supreme command over the army, so the blame for the defeats fell directly on him.
Plus, the Germans as a part of their war policy had decided to destabilise Russia from within by encouraging and allowing Lenin to travel from Zwitserland where he lived to Russia in order to stir up trouble among the Russian troops and proletariat. Which he did, very succesfully.
Lenin ousted Alexander Kerensky, head of Russia's Provisional Government, which had replaced Tsar Nicholas II. Lenin did not overthrow the Tsar.
The tsars had enjoyed unlimited power in Russia. Only Nicholas II had to deal with a revolution, which forced him to abdicate.
Tsar Nicholas conceded the foundation of a parliament, called the Duma, which for the first time established an alternative form of government to autocracy. Ultimately, the Tsar was able to remove any real power from the Duma, but by establishing the principal of surrendering power, Nicholas left himself weaker once his personal power was called into question by the very poor performance in WW1.
Nicholas II believed he had an obligation as Tsar to retain complete autocratic control over Russia as all the Tsar's before him had done. Both he and most of the peasant civilization of Russia believed that the Tsar was practically sent from God. Nicholas II believed he had to be true to that concept.
