Between 1900 and 1917 Russia was in the throes of significant social, economic and political change which culminated in the collapse of tsarist rule in February 1917. The decline of this regime eventually provided for the installation of Soviet control, which subsequently helped define the remaining years of the twentieth century. These events are at the heart of Edexcel’s Unit 1 paper, ‘Russia in revolution, 1881–1924: autocracy to dictatorship’.
