Best Answer

Nicholas had problems like Rasputin and not listening to the Duma, the elected Parliment throughout his reign. However, the disregard for the lives being lost in the war and his spending money and food on the war when the people were poor and starving were what made the people decide to finally rebel.

The overthrowing of tsar Nicholas II was caused by abolition of the elected duma. Tsarina Alexandra dismissed this duma ( which caused a greater will for a revolution) in Nicholas' absence.

He used the army as a shield against people like Lenin and Trotsky. By 1912, the army started hating him and eventually was forced to leave the throne in 1917 (after WW1).

This occurred after the coming of Pyotr Stolypin ( the hated Prime Minister) who was unpopular. The tsar dismissed the finance minister Sergei Witte on accusations that he was unable to stop the spontaneous 1905 revolution.

Due to old techniques and poor economic structure many died hungry. This lead to riots. The army joined the public in 1912 and overthrew the tsar by 1917 causing the end the Romanov and The Monarchical Rule in the Russian Empire.

Did Tsar Nicholas II's death lead to World War 1?

The death of Czar Nicholas II was not the cause of any war. World War I broke because he had allied himself with Serbia and sent troops against the Central Powers. His death did not cause the Russian Civil War either since he was murdered during it. With that said, a good number of counter revolutionaries favored the Romanov's return to power. Lenin, by his cruel execution of the Czar and his family ended that idea.

Who was forced to abdicate as a result of World War 1 and the problems of Russia?

Czar Nicholas II abdicated the throne on March 15, 1917 as a result of the February Revolution in Russia. The revolution was caused in part by the desire of most political leaders and dissidents to get out of WWI whereas Nicholas wanted Russia to continue fighting. In addition to the war issue, Nicholas simply was not capable of or interested in governing the country. This lack of governance caused a breakdown in the economy and provision of governmental services which lead to widespread unrest and dissatisfaction with the Czarist government.
