The State Duma was set up by the Russian Czar Nicholas II in 1906 as a response to the 1905 revolution. Elections were held in 1906, 1907 and 1912. The Duma was disbanded following the February 1917 Russian Revolution when the Duma members formed the Provisional Government.

Following reform in the Soviet Union a State Duma for the Russian Federation was established in 1993 and is the lower of the two parliamentary bodies.
