Why were there tensions in Russia?Karl Marx was a writer in Russia and he said thatthe middle classes (bourgeois) were toopowerful and rich. They were getting richerwhile the workers making them richer weregetting poorer.Marx said it was time for the Proletariat(workers) to rebel and take power forthemselves. They would abolish privateownership and make sure everyone held thethings in common. This is why they were calledcommunists.Karl MarxPeople who agree with Marx arecalled Marxists or CommunistsWhy was there a Revolution in 1905?The most extreme group of Communists in Russiawere a group called the Bolsheviks led by a mancalled Vladimir Lenin.

On 29th December 1916, some Russian nobles decided to murder Rasputin. They invited him to a partyoffering him cakes and wine (both poisoned with cyanide). Instead of shouting out and dying, Rasputingrew tired and asked for some tea!One of the nobles pulled out a gun and shot him, yet he still didn’t die! He leapt to his feet, attackedthem and ran out of the house. Rasputin had always said he could not be killed as he was protected byGod, the nobles started to believe it.Rasputin was chased and shot again and had his head beaten in. They threw his body into the freezingriver and floated away. At last the ‘mad monk’ was dead! When his body was found, his lungs were full of water meaning he was still breathing in the water!!!Rasputin Death https://www.youtube.com/watch?v 3Zz0sHu-m7sBoney M Song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v BfRJRogUZSI
