Russian peasants were unhappy due to a combination of oppressive conditions, including heavy taxation, land shortages, and a lack of rights. Many lived in poverty and faced harsh labor demands while receiving little support from the government. Additionally, the impact of events like the 1861 emancipation reform, which freed serfs but often left them with inadequate land and resources, fueled their discontent. This widespread dissatisfaction contributed to social unrest and ultimately played a role in the larger revolutionary movements in Russia.
