1905 Russian Revolution
The Russian Revolution of 1905,. also known as the First Russian Revolution,. occurred on 22 January 1905, and was a wave of mass political and social unrest that spread through vast areas of the Russian Empire. The mass unrest was directed against the Tsar, nobility, and ruling class. It included worker strikes, peasant unrest, and military mutinies. In response to the public pressure, Tsar Nicholas II enacted some constitutional reform (namely the October Manifesto). This took the form of establishing the State Duma, the multi-party system, and the Russian Constitution of 1906. Despite popular participation in the Duma, the parliament was unable to issue laws of its own, and frequently came into conflict with Nicholas. Its power was limited and Nicholas continued to hold the ruling authority. Furthermore, he could dissolve the Duma, which he often did. The 1905 revolution was primarily spurred by the international humiliation as a result of the Russian defeat in the Russo-Japa ...

He adapted the Doctor Dolittle stories into a book-length Russian poem as ''Doctor Aybolit'' ("Dr. Ow-It-Hurts"), and translated a substantial portion of the Mother Goose canon into Russian as ''Angliyskiye Na ...

Socialist Academy Of Social Sciences
The Socialist Academy of Social Sciences (SAON) was an educational establishment created in Russia in October 1918 with “the aim of studying and teaching social studies from the point of view of scientific socialism.” The original name of the academy was agreed over and against the proposal to call it the Communist Academy owing to objections raised by Left Socialist Revolutionaries.
