The Duma was an elected legislative body that Tsar Nicholas II allowed to be created after the Bloody Sunday incident in 1905. It was supposed to be able to write legislation that even the Tsar would have to honor, but Nicholas kept ignoring it and it became nothing more than an advisory body.

∙ 13y agoA Duma is a "puppet" group, or parliament with no real power.
It was formed in 1906 in the Russia and was only formed because Tsar Nicholas II was receiving pressure from his country during World War I. The people of Russia did not like how the Tsar had all the power and wanted him to share the power among the people. Although the Duma was formed, it was only to make the people happy temporarily, as the Tsar dissolved and brought back the Duma whenever he pleased, or whenever the people began to protest his power.
Eventually, the Duma formed a provisional government, and with the support of the military, had the Tsar abdicate, or leave his power (he went to Holland). Russia was ready for political change.
This was the first, or February Russian Revolution.
