The red Sunday in 1905 and the Bolshevik Revolution in 1917

Explanation:

Imperial Russia was a very unequal society, lands were owned by the aristocracy and the vast majority of the population lived in poverty.

In 1905, the red sunday saw demonstrators being shot at for protesting the Czar rule, it galvanized the masses and explains partly why a revolution occurred a decade later.

In 1917, two revolutions(one in February and one in October), it led to the end of the Romanov dynasty.
