Correct Answer - Option 4 : Petrograd

February Revolution: 8–16 March 1917

  • A series of public protests begin in Petrograd, which last for eight days and eventually result in abolition of the monarchy in Russia. The total number of killed and injured in clashes with the police and government troops in Petrograd is estimated around 1,300 people.
  • 8 March 1917: On International Women’s Day, demonstrators and striking workers – many of whom are women – take to the streets to protest against food shortages and the war. Two days later, the strikes spread across Petrograd.
  • Later on, Tsar Nicholas II abdicates and also removes his son from the succession.  
  • Nicholas’ brother Mikhail also announces his refusal to accept the throne.
  • A Provisional Government is formed to replace the tsarist government, with Prince Lvov becoming the leader.
