A key mistake made by the Provisional Government in Russia was its decision to continue fighting in World War I, which exacerbated public discontent and economic hardship. This choice alienated many soldiers and civilians who were desperate for peace and reform. Additionally, the government failed to implement land reforms or address pressing social issues, allowing the Bolsheviks to gain popular support by promising "peace, land, and bread." Ultimately, these missteps contributed to the Provisional Government's downfall and the rise of Bolshevik power.
Russia's provisional government was made up of members of the middle class.

something happened and it made Russia's economy bad In early 1917, the Russian population was unhappy with the monarchy that had ruled Russia for centuries. A series of strikes and riots led to a revolution. A "Provisional Government" was instated to rule of the nation until a new on could be formed. In October 1917, the Bolsheviks (A radical left wing party led by Vladimir Lenin) overthrew the Provisional Government and instated a socialist government. One of their first actions was to pull out of WW1.
The Russian provisional government made the fatal mistake of continuing to engage in World War I, which led to widespread discontent among the populace and exacerbated economic hardships. This decision alienated key support from the military and the working class, who were weary of the war's toll. Moreover, the government's failure to implement significant reforms and address pressing social issues created a power vacuum that ultimately facilitated the Bolshevik Revolution in October 1917. Their inability to gain popular support and effectively manage the crisis contributed to their downfall.
Czar Nicholas II abdicated his throne in the March Revolution of 1917. Several unfortunate decisions had made him a very unpopular monarch who had no support from any faction in Russia. A liberal democratic provisional government was put in place upon his abdication. Exiled Bolsheviks returned to Russia, successfully ousting the liberal democratic provisional government. Following their success, the Czar and his entire family were executed.
The Provisional Government was set up after the February Revolution in 1917 when the czar was forced to abdicate. It was meant to rule Russia until a permanent government could be organized. Of course, they fixed none of things that made the population rebel in the first place and were overthrown in the October or Bolshevik Revolution.Historically, the two revolutions are referred to as the February Revolution and the October Revolution because they occurred in Russia and those were the months in which they occurred there. Academically, events that occurred within Russia under the old calendar are dated according to the calendar in place in Russia at that time, but given the explanation "Old Style". After an old style date was written there would be the date for the rest of the world with the words "New Style." Thus:"Within Russia, the Bolshevik Revolution started on October 25, 1917 (Old Style, November 7, 1917 New Style)."

The German government agreed to escort Lenin from his exile in Switzerland back to Russia in order that Lenin could provoke another revolution that would take Russia out of World War I. This would allow Germany to move all the military forces it had fighting the Russians over to the western front to fight the French and English. The February Revolution and the abdication of the Tsar had already occurred, but the new Provisional Government did not stop the war. Germany hoped Lenin would at the very least make the Provisional Government end Russia's involvement in the war if not completely stop it by taking over the government, which is what happened. Lenin was not only transported back to Russia but he and the Bolsheviks received money from the Germans as well. Many rival political people accused them of being paid German agents.
It is not one persons fault. It is a result of mistake after mistake made by both the government and people alike.
The provisional government in Russia was removed during the October Revolution of 1917 primarily due to its inability to address key issues such as land reform, ongoing involvement in World War I, and widespread economic hardship. It lost popular support, especially among workers and peasants, who were disillusioned with its failure to enact meaningful changes. The Bolsheviks, led by Vladimir Lenin, capitalized on this discontent by advocating for "Peace, Land, and Bread," ultimately leading to their successful seizure of power. The provisional government's lack of legitimacy and effective governance made it vulnerable to revolution.
