This map illustrates the RussianRevolution of 1905, a wave of political and social unrest across the #RussianEmpire following defeat in the Russo-Japanese War (1904-5). The revolution was sparked by #BloodySunday on 22 January 1905, when peaceful protesters marching to present a petition to #Tsar #NicholasII (reign 1894-1917) were fired upon in #StPetersburg. What followed were mass strikes, peasant uprisings, military mutinies, and the formation of workers' soviets, culminating in the October Manifesto, which promised limited reforms.
Although the revolution did not overthrow the monarchy, it significantly weakened the foundations of autocratic rule. Revolts erupted in cities such as #Moscow, Odessa, and Warsaw, while rural areas saw widespread peasant unrest. The OctoberManifesto led to the creation of the State Duma in 1906, Russia's first national legislature, though its authority was soon restricted.
