@@heynowur9146 not for military, but for political reasons. The bolsheviks saw that revolution was on germany's doorsteps ans wanted to accelerate the process. One of the things they had to do for this was to show the true imperialist ambitions of german capitalism in pursuing this war. At that time the german generals didn't say it was a war for the conquest of land, but for peace and the self determination of nations. So if they stopped fighting without signing a treaty, one of two things could happen: either the germans didn't advance, which would mean that the situation in germany was already so unstable that the generals were afraid of attacking, that would have boosted morale in Russia enormously. The second option was that the germans would advance, but in doing so would reveal their real intentions, which were not peace and the self determination of nations, but brutal imperialist conquest. This revelation would have massive effects in the consciousness of the german masses. Lenin and Trotsky thought that if germany advanced they would still be able to quickly sign the original peace treaty. This calculation was mistaken, and they paid the price, but the main intention, of revealing the brutality of the german ruling class was achieved, and a few months later on the 3rd of november 1918, the german revolution broke out, effectively bringing world war 1 to an end. Sadly the german revolution failed, but that is a separate matter.

If anyone's curious about what became of Alexander Kerensky after he fled Petrograd, he managed to survive the Russian Revolution and lived a relatively peaceful life, outliving many of the significant figures of the Russian Revolution. Oversimplified didn't cover this, but after Kerensky escaped the Bolsheviks during the October Revolution, he fled to Pskov, where he rallied some loyal troops in an attempt to re-take the city. They managed to capture Tsarskoye Selo but were beaten the next day at Pulkovo. Kerensky narrowly escaped again and spent the next few weeks in hiding before fleeing Russia for good, eventually arriving in France. During the Russian Civil War, he supported neither side, as he opposed both the Bolshevik regime and the White Movement. Eventually, after Germany invaded France in 1940, Kerensky fled to the United States, where he spent the remainder of his life. He lived in New York City with his wife but spent much of his time at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University in California, where he contributed to the Institution's huge archive on Russian history and taught graduate courses. He wrote and broadcast extensively on Russian politics and history. Kerensky eventually died of heart disease in New York City on June 11, 1970. At 89, he was one of the last surviving major participants in the turbulent events of 1917, having outlived Lenin, Stalin, Trotsky, and all the other prominent figures who had overthrown him.

So old family story. My great grandfather was a train station master in Lithuania (but he was of German origin). He spoke Russian, German, & Lithuanian. Trains in Russia had a different gauge then the rest of Europe, so his station was somewhere trains were swapped. As the station master and knowing those languages, he sometimes was an "independent" interpreter. At one point he was aware of the some of the intrigues regarding German plots involving Lenin. I don't know how much of that is TRUE, but those are the stories my father and grandfather used to tell after a "few" beers.

These were all-female units created by the Provisional Government, mainly for propaganda purposes - to raise the patriotic mood in the army and to shame the male soldiers who refuse to fight. Despite their propaganda role, they took a limited part in the war at the front (yes, in Russia in 1917 everything was so bad).

I think a good point of comparison is the French Revolution. You have an oppressive, outdated government, you a massive and certainly justified popular revolt led by people with radical new ideas for what to replace the oppressive government with, some of whom were no doubt true believers and some of whom just saw it as a path to power, you have massive resistance from surrounding conservative/reactionary governments fearing the threat to the status quo, which leads to the Revolutionaries being further radicalized, and you have the failures of the Revolution projected onto the the entire Ideology as proof of its failure. It's interesting, then, looking at the histories of the respective Ideologies, where you see that Liberalism was, indeed, synonymous with the chaos and bloodshed of the French Revolution for many years in Europe, allowing the reactionary Absolute Monarchies to stay in power, but eventually, a somewhat more moderate version of Liberalism did triumph, sometimes even through peaceful means. I imagine we'll see Communism/Socialism take a similar path in the coming century, especially with many people once again growing justifiably dissatisfied with the status quo. History doesn't repeat itself, but it often rhymes, as the saying goes.

2:50 fun fact: basically, they did try to poison Rasputin. But the guy who was supposed to put the poison in ended up feeling bad and didn't poison it, so Rasputin was fine. Then they sh0t him and, just to be safe, dumped him in the river, but they ended up finding scratch marks underneath the ice, like he'd been trying to claw his way out. Basically, the dude was next to immortal, and for that reason I have a cat named after him that looks and acts like the female cat equivalent of a crazy homeless guy.

In fact, George and Nicky looked so much alike when they were young that they were sometimes mistaken for each other at family gatherings. George is sometimes criticized for not doing more to try and save Nicholas and his family, but if he (a constitutional monarch) had tried to bring his (extremely unpopular and autocratic) cousin to England in the middle of a war… yeah, that wouldn’t have gone over very well. In any event, it’s not likely that Nicholas and Alexandra would have agreed to go, at least not until it was too late.

Funny story regarding Rasputin, after his assassination he was buried in a church cemetery which was later broken into by red army soldiers. They took the body to a forest to burn him and when they set him on fire he sat up and allegedly tried to walk lol. The reason for this was because you're supposed to cut the tendons when you cremate which shrink when they burn hence the "sitting up" part. I would have SHIT if I saw that guy sit up in his fire pit.

I have my history documentaries on a playlist, and I order the videos by rough chronological order of the topics. OS's WWI videos are sandwiched in between the Russian Revolution Parts 1 and 2, and it's so interesting to see the evolution of his videocraft in such stark terms. That said, I like that he opens this video with the same visuals for the archduke's assassination that he used in the WWI video. It feels like he's giving a high-five to an old buddy he hasn't seen in awhile.

I love Rasputin's story because it's completely bonkers. If you would release a film today about the queen of one of the largest countries on Earth being influenced by what's basically a giant unkillable sex wizard, no one would take it seriously because it sounds completely made up

I live near the bridge where Rasputin's body was dumped.

best channel in youtube for history. Really appreciate the efforts. Please keep make more videos on different topics.

My great great grandfather was actually a top general to tzar Nicholas during the war and the revolution. Our family is German but we moved to Russia during Catherine’s land promise. Anyway our family got into the military and my great great grandfather helped Nicolas. He ended up quitting and fleeing to America when Nick made himself top general. He moved to North Dakota and helped America with learning about Russia and many other countries (he spoke around 11 languages)

Funnily enough, when the Soviets came to power, they dug up Rasputin and burned his body. Unfortunately no one had prepared the body properly, so when his ligaments shriveled in the flames, he sat up and scared the crap out of everyone. Good times.
