History of the Russian Revolution 1917: The February Revolution

History of the Russian Revolution of 1917: this is a deeply researched animated history video about the February Revolution in Russia. We begin in March 1917 as the war-exhausted Russian populace begins to rebel against the Tsar in Petrograd. Who were these people during the February Revolution? Was the Russian Revolution inevitable? The pillars of Russian society before the revolution is explored: the peasants, the army, the orthodox church- and of course, the Tsars- from Peter the Great to Nicholas II.
