The March Revolution of 1917 in Russia led to the abdication of Tsar Nicholas II, effectively ending centuries of Romanov rule. It resulted in the establishment of a provisional government, which aimed to create a more democratic political system. However, this government struggled with widespread discontent, leading to further unrest and the eventual rise of the Bolsheviks later that year. The revolution marked a pivotal shift towards the eventual establishment of a communist regime in Russia.
Czar, also written in Latin characters as Tsar, is a Russian title that translates as "Emperor." Ultimately, it derives from the Latin name turned title, Caesar, which came to mean Emperor during the time of the Roman Empire.
The Russian Revolution was sparked by a combination of political, social, and economic factors, including widespread discontent with the autocratic rule of Tsar Nicholas II, the devastation of World War I, and severe economic hardship. The February Revolution in 1917 was particularly ignited by food shortages, strikes, and military failures, leading to mass protests. This unrest culminated in the abdication of the Tsar and the establishment of a provisional government, which ultimately failed to address the pressing issues, paving the way for the Bolshevik Revolution later that year.
First of all, the term was not Third Roman Empire. It was the Third Rome. Secondly, this term was not applied to the Kievan Rus. It was applied to the Grand Principality of Moscow (or Muscovy) in the time of Ivan III Vasilyevich, the Grand Price of Moscow and "Grand Prince of all Rus."The term Third Rome described the idea that some city, state, or country is the successor to the legacy of ancient Rome (the first Rome) though connection to the Byzantine Empire (the second Rome).The notion of the Third Rome started in Bulgaria under Tsar Ivan Alexander. The renamed his capital Tsarevigrad Tarnov (which was very similar to Tsarigrad, the Slavic for Constantinople, the capital of the Byzantine Empire) to bolster the prestige of the Second Bulgarian Empire. Patriarch Callistus I of Constantinople called it "second both in words and deeds after Constantinople."The idea of the Third Rome was taken to Russia by monks who fled Bulgaria after it was taken by the Ottoman Turks. Some orthodox Christians then nominated Moscow as the Third Rome. The Tsar Ivan III of Russia (reigned 1462 -1505), who had married Sophia Paleologue, a niece of Constantine XI, the last Byzantine emperor, claimed that he was the heir of the fallen Byzantine Empire soon after the capture of Constantinople by Ottoman Turks. The Russians saw themselves as the upholders of the religion of this Empire, which had fallen to Muslims. In 1501 a Russian monk, Filofey, wrote an ode to Ivan's successor, Vasili III, in which he said that: "Two Romes have fallen. The third stands. And there will be no fourth. No one shall replace your Christian Tsardom!"The Bulgarians and the Russians, as well as the Serbs and the Romanians were converted to orthodox Christianity by Byzantine missionaries..
