Editor's Notes

- Peasants were unhappy with the low standard of living Autocratic rule continued by Alexander III in which he had total power which continued the tradition of Russian autocracy The Czars continued to oppress other national groups within Russia The Czars made Russian the official language of the empire and forbade the use of minority languages
- On January 22, 1905, about 200,000 workers and their families approached the czar’s Winter Palace in St. Petersburg. They wanted better working conditions, more personal freedom and an elected national legislature. Nicholas’s II’s generals ordered the soldiers to fire on the crowd. More than a 1,000 people were wounded and several hundreds were killed. This event was named Bloody Sunday. Significance of Bloody Sunday was that it sparked a wave of strikes and violence across Russia. Nicholas II reluctantly promised more freedom by creating a Duma which was Russia’s first Parliament. The first Duma met in 1906. Finally Nicholas II dissolved the Duma after 10 weeks as he was hesitant to share his power.
- The Russo-Japanese War- Russia and Japan competed for control of Korea and Manchuria. The two nations signed many agreements over the territories. Russia broke the agreements. Japan retaliated by attacking the Russians in February 1904. The working class Russians were not happy with repeated losses that Russia suffered in Manchuria.
