Bloody Sunday in 1905 occurred due to widespread discontent among workers and peasants in Russia, driven by harsh working conditions, low wages, and the lack of political representation. On January 22, a peaceful protest led by Father Georgy Gapon aimed to present a petition to Tsar Nicholas II, seeking reforms and better living conditions. The protest turned tragic when imperial troops opened fire on the unarmed demonstrators, resulting in hundreds of deaths and injuries. This event intensified the revolutionary fervor in Russia and marked a significant turning point in the 1905 Revolution.
