The February Revolution (1917) - From Tsar to Provisional Government [Russian Revolution]

- The Russian Revolution (1917) kicked off with the February Revolution (or March Revolution) which started on International Women's Day. Women urged factory workers to join them. In the following days demonstrations were followed by riots and shootings. Key moment was when soldiers and police men joined the side of the protesters. The State Duma and Petrograd Soviet (Provisional Executive Committee) emerged as new powers. Order No. 1 was issued. Tsar Nicholas II later abdicated. Convinced by Alexander Kerensky Grand Duke Mikhail (brother of Tsar Nicholas II) declined the throne and thus the Romanov Dynasty was no more. What role did the Bolsheviks, Mensheviks, Kronstadt Sailors and Socialist-Revolutionaries (SRs) play in this turnover? This is the story of the February Revolution.

Hey hey zou je misschien een paar bronnen kunnen geven ik maak een werkstuk hierover en heb al veel aan jouw videos gehad
Thank you for a very wonderful presentation. I would just like to add that Nicholas abdicated at the behest of two representatives of the Duma who brought him a list of generals - including his cousin Grand Duke Nicholas and General Alekseev - requesting his abdication. It was only when Nicholas realized he had no support among most of his generals did he agree to abdicate.
Thanks for the additional information, Eleanor!
Great update and love the details of this content 💜 Thank you for sharing 👍
Many thanks 👍

Great 👌
Great video. Thanks!
👍
I love history, cant get enough of it, thanks for dropping knowledge on us!
Thanks for your reply.
Wait, what?
Great channel! Keep up the good work!
Thanks!
A lot of people don't realize that there were two revolutions in Russia. The first in February, 1917 which installed the provisional government, and the second in October, 1917 which installed the Bolsheviks. This is a great video about the February Revolution.
True.
Great video !
👍
explained so well thank you!
👍👍👍
Great video as always!
I've never seen the Menshevik logo (2:55) and thought to myself that it looks super cool but also suspiciously similar to the modern emblem of Udmurtia, one of the autonomous republics of the Russian Federation.
After a bit of searching, I think that it is sadly not a real, historical party logo, but one created by a Deviantart user NRE86, who apparently is into the alternate history.
Ahh shoot, you got me there, Artur. I was indeed looking for a logo and thought this one was legit. I have to remove it for future videos, too bad. Actually, the bolshevik logo is the first logo of Soviet Russia. Perhaps they didn't have such a thing. Or just a hammer and sickle.
@@HistoryHustle Happens to the best. :)
I watched all your Russian Revolution/Civil War videos because I had a class about Soviet rise to power and it ended in triumph at the exams. Thanks for the content you provide us.
That is awesome. Great job. Thanks for your reply.
I'm a history buff from the U.S.A , I found your channel a few weeks ago and I'm hooked. NEW SUB HERE.
That's great, welcome to the channel, Daniel. What history are you most interested in?
@@HistoryHustle Your series on foreign soldiers fighting in the Waffen SS was amazing. I have spent most of my life in uniform and history of the worlds military always interests me. Thank you for the incredible content.
Great to read. Thanks!
An underestimated event, much more important than the October revolution. Many years later, the participants in those events could not give an unambiguous answer in their memoirs to the question: "Why did they do this?"
Agree, thank you for replying.
Great Video
Thanks 👍
Excellent work. BZ
👍
Another interesting Saturday evening!
👌
Good video I am reading " A people's tragedy " at the moment, so this was very welcome
Great read indeed!

Excellent video. One can only imagine how it must have been being a common citizen in those days of revolt and uprising.
Very turbulent times indeed...
Am I the only one who would love to sit down and have a joint with him and talk history!! Wonderful!
Many thanks, Mike!
Spasiba!
👍
Спасибо!
Excellent but clearer analysis of the early days of the Soviet Revolution. Kerensky's Duma was short-lived, but as History shows us, it was not Lenin who began it, but who in the end controlled the outcome. Alles Goede, again Professor!
Many thanks, Daniel!

Hello, Stefan... Today was my test on Russian Revolution lol... Hope u r doing fine
Hope it went well!
a well-known topic , but very few here know about Georgian - Muscovite (& Turkish) war
How is that related to this topic?
Hello history Hustle I do greatly appreciate your videos and I love watching the videos and learning more knowledge that you have teach upon me do I do feel like usually Leverage inow the Red Army got away with war crimes during World War II thank you
Already covered much of this:
ua-cam.com/video/vxhjphZd1nE/v-deo.html
ua-cam.com/video/zEgJzIdxmc8/v-deo.html
ua-cam.com/video/eJ8BGpFoGXw/v-deo.html

Due to the police and/or army refusing to go into action against their own people is the major reason why Stalin made sure that they who were the government officials or military forces of one area were from another area of the Soviet Union. He would also take into consideration past conflicts between the regions of the Soviet to move his forces.
That's about Stalin, but this video is about the February Revolution.
@@HistoryHustle Forgive me, I thought you had made note of policing forces refusing to apply force to their own people. Please understand that my comments are not to criticize, I just try to add to the information. You have been so helpful and informative when do I ask a question, I don't want to criticize.
I thought Grand Duke Mikhail didn't exactly declined but asked for a constitution to be written and a referendum to be done, and if the results of the referendum were negative for continuing with the monarchy, he would decline completely.
I see. This is what I read in my sources.
Oohhh...I like a bit of revolutionary Russia....and excellent beard augmentation there by the way
Thanks, Rowan!
6:09 it's probably shorter in Russian.
Today more on that!
All kidding aside, I love your channel, it's one of my favorite sources of history.
👍
I hoped that we would see another February Revolution now.
Let's see how things play out...
This series is highly interesting, guess the russian revolution is one of those things everybody knows what it was but not how or why it happened in more detail so thanks for giving us those details, good job.
Many thanks, glad you appreciate it!
All we wanted was bread 🍞. If the Tsar wouldn't give us that, then he deserved being out of power. You would revolt to if suddenly all food disappeared.
Understandable. Is the February Revolution in Russia today remembered much?
@@HistoryHustle It's not really talked about that much about really. Overshadowed by the October Revolution.
More on this later!
@@HistoryHustle You should also cover the in between period. That's kinda bad to leave out...
"If the Tsar wouldn't give us that, then he deserved being out of power"
How could he have given you bread when he was busy trying to win a war that's destroying/costing Imperial Russia so much?
Bread has toppled more kings than bullets 😅..also nicky was a jackazz
Rough times.
One cannot help but wonder what Russia, and the world, would have looked like today if this had led to an actual working democracy?
We will never know...
That was impossible because those politicians that came to power were incompetent and never had any intention to fulfill the expectations of the majority of the population.
The population was tired of war, the peasants (soldiers) wanted land and the politicians were doing nothing about that.
@@simplicius11 And the Bolsheviks offered Lenin, Stalin, murder, and terror. The other side of the tarnished coin.
I don't mind much that tsar was killed but his children, servant and their children is very barbaric thing to do. When you're against evil only difference is you don't hurt the innocent but the revolutionaries didn't understood this sadly
Did you know I recorded a video on location about the topic:
ua-cam.com/video/SUTaKEvU8lE/v-deo.html
@@HistoryHustle i didn't
Do check it, hope you find it interesting.
@@HistoryHustle man I saw and it was great I subscribed cause your channel looks great. Now you will see my comments lot of times and recommendations for other videos👍👍😅
Thanks 👍
Rice is better than bread when a country is in this chaos
There was no rice either..
Germany in russia during winter : ''Dear god we're all gonna die get me outta here''
Russians in 1917 during the winter : 6:53 ''Haha yes burn, wacky, haha''
lol
I would like to ask do you think the history repeat himself in mama Rosiya which means Alci Navalni new version of Lenin but in Europe democracy style again how to understand the Russian bear attitude?!
Can't tell, we'll have to see...
Nicholas II was a walking disaster pretty much from the moment he became Tsar, this moment unfortunately was inevitable
And it would lead to his death. More on that here:
ua-cam.com/video/SUTaKEvU8lE/v-deo.html
And allowing Alexandra to govern in his stead while he was at the war front was another disaster.
Hey i am Indian🇮🇳. I think u belong to other country
Yes, I am Dutch.
Lenin was right the February Revolution was not guided.That was why it was short lived.
Initially it wasn't guided, but guidance came with the Duma and the Petrograd Soviet. Yet, eventually they lost their grip.

Ok.
