How was Russian life 1917?

In: Russian History [Edit categories]

Answer:

Russian life was very disorganised in 1917. The Russians were having a bad time in the First World War, starvation was widespread. There were two revolutions in Russia in 1917, the first, in February, overthrew the Czar (Emperor) and established the mildly socialist government of Kerensky, the second, in November, turned the whole state upside down and established Communism under Lenin.
