The Russian Revolution: The Last Tsar's Abdication and the February Revolution
Om avsnittet
In March 1917, Tsar Nicholas II abdicated the throne, ending three centuries of Romanov rule. This episode explores the February Revolution in Petrograd: the International Women's Day protests, the mutiny of the Volynsky Regiment, the formation of the Petrograd Soviet, and the Provisional Government under Prince Lvov. We discuss the Tsar's train journey from Mogilev to Pskov, the role of General Ruzsky and Mikhail Rodzianko, the abdication manifesto, and the Grand Duke Michael's refusal to accept the crown. The episode also touches on the dual power structure—the Provisional Government and the Soviet—that set the stage for the October Revolution. A pivotal moment in Russian history, covered in-depth with primary sources and human detail.
