Opposition to the Czar

Explanation:

The March and October revolutions were caused by the fact that the Czar was extremely unpopular due to the war which worsened poverty at home and caused deaths at the front. 1917 saw the end of the Russian and the start of communism in Russia. The Romanov Dynasty was toppled and eventually massacred in 1918.

Social protests had started much earlier with the Nihilist movement depicted by Dostoyesky, the Anarchists who killed Alexander II for instance, the Populists at the very end of the 19th century or the the Red Sunday in 1905.
