How did Alexandra Romanov cause the revolution?
She did not. It was the bolshevik's anger and hatred toward the entire family.
Alexandra was a factor in causing the the Russian Revolution. She was of German origin and very aloof in her manner. She was never fully accepted or liked by the Russian people, especially when World War 1 with Germany started in 1914. Her dalliance with Rasputin where she allowed him to unduly influence decisions of the Tsar made many of the military, political and noble leaders angry toward her. The anger was so great that several nobles murdered Rasputin in order to be rid of him and his influence over Alexandra.
It must be remembered that there were two revolutions in 1917, the February Revolution when the tsar abdicated and the October Revolution, when the Bolsheviks overthrew the succeeding Provisional Government. If anything, Alexandra only provided cause for the first revolution, meaning that the anger of the Bolsheviks was not truly an overriding factor. Their anger showed itself more in the October Revolution when they overthrew the Provisional Government than in the February Revolution when the tsar abdicated.
