If you are referring to the Russian Pillars of Autocracy then the pillars are:

· Civil Service: tens of thousands of workers organised into ranks from government ministers to minor officials such as post office workers, customs inspectors. Collected taxes, made sure Tsars ordered were carried out throughout Russia, no power for decisions so had approval from St. Petersburg. Civil servants poorly paid, bribery and corruption common at all levels.

· The Army: Used by Tsar to maintain power. In times of famine or severe discontent, riots, strikes and protests were dealt with by the army. Cossacks were loyal to the Tsar, ferocious soldiers used sabres to slaughter anyone rioting.

· Okhrana (Secret Police):Spied on suspected opponents of the regime, even on the royal family, infiltrated revolutionary organisations, they censored books and newspapers, those arrested could face flogging, fines or exile to Siberia.

· The Russian Orthodox Church: Taught people to be loyal to the Tsar and Autocracy, tsar was head of the church, peasants were god fearing, lower level priests, poorly paid and disliked as they demanded money from peasants.
