  • Worker Conditions and Reforms
  • We're out of water again, the crops are dehydrated. We have no money for food either because of the damn taxes.
  • Dirty too. Jimmy has been sick for weeks. It's not like we can do anything - let's go to bed for the night.
  • Bloody Sunday and The 1905 Revolution
  • We have a petition to show the Tsar! Let us in!
  • The Effects of World War I
  • Fall back!
  • In the late 19th century and early 20th century, work and living conditions were horrendus. Despite forming 80% of the population, farmers were taxed ruthlessly by the Tsar. The sanitation was poor, there were no unions and no income tax. In response, opposition grew and the Tsar was forced to grant basic civil rights and universal suffrage; only for the educated, however.
  • The 1917 Revolution
  • Once the workers banded together and got 150,000 signs on a petition for change, they were mistaken for a threat and got shot by the guards while gathering outside the winter palace peacefully. It created a wave of massive political unrest in Russia and workers going on strike, which was deemed The 1905 Revolution. Tsar Nicholas was forced to implement some reforms that were the bare minimum.
  • Vladimir Lenin
  • When there is state there can be no freedom, but when there is freedom there will be no state.
  • The outbreak of the first World War in 1914 only escalated the issues in Russia. Food shortages were at a high and due to poor leadership skills, many lives were lost in the war. Despite the minimal changes back in Russia, people like Jimmy stayed sick and workers kept going on strike. The issue in Russia was only avoided by the Tsar.
  • Due to the lack of proper change and disastrous outcome of World War I, the people continued to protest and go on strike. The Tsar was forced to abdicate the throne. After this, Vladimir Lenin and the communist bolshevik party took control.
