There were four Dumas in Russia, none of which were successful. The first Duma was established in 1906, with mostly left leaning members. Little was accomplished because the Tzar did not want to give up any power. The second Duma was established in 1907 in strong opposition to the October Manifest. It was shortly lived as the first had been and were outnumbered by radical Bolsheviks and Mensheviks. The third Duma ran from 1907 to 1912 and made sure the Duma that was ran by gentry, businessmen and land owners. The fourth Duma began in 1912 and ended at the start of World War 1. It was ended after the Tzar persuaded members to agree to holding only a consulting role.
