People protested during Bloody Sunday in 1917 primarily due to widespread discontent with the Russian government's handling of World War I, which had resulted in severe food shortages, economic hardship, and high casualties. The protesters, consisting of workers and their families, sought better working conditions, political reforms, and an end to the war. The demonstration turned violent when the Tsar's troops opened fire on the crowd, leading to numerous deaths and injuries, which fueled further unrest and revolutionary sentiments across Russia. This tragic event marked a significant turning point in the Russian Revolution.

The three stages of the "Russian Revolution" were the 1905 Revolution after Bloody Sunday, the February Revolution of 1917 and the October Revolution of 1917.


What was created after Bloody Sunday in Russia?

The Duma, a democratically elected legislature, was established after Bloody Sunday in Russia in 1905. It was supposed to be able to enact legislation that would bind even the Tsar; however, the Tsar never allowed it to have that kind of power and it never was anything more than an advisory committee to the Tsar.


What was the view from the people of Russia of Nicholas II after 1905?

After the 1905 incident called Bloody Sunday, the Russian people no longer thought Nicholas II as their "little father" who worried about and cared for their needs. They realized at last that he was no different than most other monarchs being interested only in his own well being and completely unsympathetic and even blind to that of the country and its inhabitants. Father Giorgi Gapon, the leader of the peaceful Bloody Sunday procession himself said afterwards, "There is no Tsar." Until then, the common peasant thought of the tsars as near divine right rulers. Except among some of the intelligentsia and more radical revolutionaries, most Russians could not even think of overthrowing the tsars. But when news of Bloody Sunday spread, this attitude changed. This change in attitude toward the tsar from god sent protector to uncaring autocrat paved the way to the Russian Revolution in 1917.


What was the role of father gapon in the building of russia through revolution?

Father Gapon led a peaceful protest through St. Petersburg. He had a petition requesting liberal reforms from Tsar Nicholas II. Despite it being a peaceful protest, the Tsar's army opened fire killing around 1,000 people in what became know as Bloody Sunday (not to be confused with the U2 song). Bloody Sunday highlighted the Tsar's cruelty which lead to a big protest called the General Strike of 1905. This forced the Tsar to make some reformative changes in what is now known as the 1905 Russian Revolution. However, the Tsar basically reverse his reforms not long after through the Fundamental Laws, and the Russia people were still dissatisfied with the Tsar which is why the 1917 Revolutions still occurred.


What were the consequences of Bloody Sunday in Russia in 1905?

Tsar Nicholas II recognized that he could no longer simply use military force to prevent the Russian people from overthrowing him. Therefore he agreed to create the Duma, a democratically elected legislature that would be able to pass legislation that even the Tsar would have to abide by. He also signed the October Manifesto, which promised the Russian people greater individual freedoms. The Tsar soon reneged on both these promises. The Duma never became anything more than an advisory body and the new freedoms never appeared. This set the stage for the revolutions to come in 1917.
