A Report into Recent Events in Russia
I herein submit my report of the events leading up to the seizure of
the city by the Bolshevik Lenin and his followers. There have been
very serious incidents going on in Russia; the biggest impact can be
felt from the capital city, Petrograd. There have been an incredible
chain of events which have led to the chaotic atmosphere to which is
contributed by the majority of the population. I don't think I can
truly convey the severity of the issue of the near breaking point of
Russia's ruling. It began with the peasants feeling cheated and when
compared to England they lead appalling lives.
Right from the start, the Provisional Government was not really in
control. It had to share power with the Petrograd Soviet and was set
up by the Tsar basically to fail so that he could show his people that
the autocratic system with which Russia had used for hundreds of years
was a better option. The Tsar wanted to preserve his powers for his
son so that he may carry on the as-of-yet 300 years of Romanov rule.
The Duma is disliked by the people, but in actuality there was little
the Provisional Government could do. The people wanted the Duma to
take charge but they were worried that if they did so, they would be
executed by the Tsar. They had immense pressure to make radical
changes, and fast. Because they had to share power with the Soviet
they were seen as weak and the people need someone who will fight for
them who could make what they need happen.
The Bolshevik leader, a virtually unknown revolutionary of little
importance before the war, came back to Petrograd and promised the
people "Peace, Bread and Land". With these unusually large promises to
fulfill, Vladimir Lenin has to act to keep the support of his
followers. He returned to Russia after being exiled to Siberia and
then moving to London where he produced pamphlets about revolution
with other revolutionaries. Lenin is a fantastic public speaker and
In the late 19th century Russia had been notably behind Europe economically, they weren’t in possession of the modern farming technologies that could efficiently provide for a large country. As a result 90% of the Russian population were peasants (Massey, 4). The serfs lived in deep poverty; they didn’t have the appropriate apparatus to produce enough crops and most of their landlords had unbelievably high demands. In an effort to reform the economy’s recession tsar Alexander II liberated the serfs
other countries are involved. Russia has been one the move since the Cold War ended. The Russians position threat to many lives with nuclear sales. Many Russian affiliations and events are to blame including Russian Mafia, military intelligence, Trading Air, collapse in economy, and disgruntled Nuclear employees. Russian Crime organizations have grown to a high number since the end of the Cold War. The Nuclear Black market is no stranger to the Russian Mafia. Russia may be poised to sell nuclear
There used be a time when Americans, and much of the world lived in constant fear of Nuclear annihilation. In the 1950 the U.S Government would release propaganda videos that would instruct Americans to “duck and cover” in case of a nuclear blast. Because that reasoning is sound right? Ducking under a picnic table or covering your head with your hands is enough to withstand millions of pounds of force and deathly radiation. In today’s day and age we don’t really consider the dangers of a nuclear
if the nation fails to do that, it becomes the international community’s responsibility (White 545,547). Recent events have, unfortunately, caused some to question whether the U.N. is fulfilling its purpose, and all because of one reason: the five veto powers present in Security Council (Reuters Para. 12). Currently the nations of the United States, United Kingdom, France, China, and Russia may veto any U.N. resolution regardless of opposition if they choose to (Amrith 255). The power has been
history of the Jews in Russia has been in a state of despair. As critical historians, the value and worth of an article can only work by assessing the article in relation to the overall subject/topic. By analyzing the primary source document as a critical historian, “The Massacre of Jews at Kishinev” by N. Tchaykovsky, the value and worth of the article can be achieved. The article, “The Massacre of Jews at Kishinev,” describes the violent pogrom that occurred in Kishinev, Russia in the year 1903. The
opportunities in every part of the world. This kind of mutuality has led to the many politics, developments, conflicts, and social justices that all nations face today. It shapes and continuously changes the world in many ways. The United Kingdom, Mexico, Russia, China, Iran, and Nigeria all are interdependent of each other. This interdependence is how I see the world develop and grow into the communities that are present today.

Intellectual Property Law used to only protect art, music, and literature, but because of technological development, Intellectual Property Law now also protects a greater variety of innovations including designs, inventions, symbols, discoveries, and words. The phrase “intellectual property” was first known to be used in the late 1700’s; however, it was not widely talked about, nor was the Intellectual Property Law in actuality commonly implemented. Intellectual Property Rights slowly gained more
Rough Draft: Venezuela is a country located in the northern area of South America that’s national language is Spanish. It is a very complex and interesting country with many important events in the past as well as some current events that have made headlines. Venezuela has been struggling with development for a long time and it has a landscape that can sometimes make it quite hard to build roads and tracks, thus hindering the forward progress of the nation. Venezuela is a democratic country with
The Fall of Tsarism in Russia Some sources suggest that autocracy is outdated and the reason for the collapse of Tsarist Russia. However, other sources suggest that without the complications of war, Russia may have prospered. Tolstoy and Kokovstov both have conflicting views. Tolstoy the pessimist, believed that autocracy was an outdated form of government not suited to 20th Century Russia. However Kokovstov the optimist thought that Russia would have prospered if it wasn't for the Great War
FIFA's Not So Objective Role in Football Football has always historically been known as the most played, most loved, and most influential sport in the world. The history of football, which was first played by the ancient Greeks and Romans, is a long one that has played some role in shaping almost every country's culture as we know it today. The game of football is seen by many as a game that has the rare power to bring nations together. Football is a language that every nation can speak, where despite

comprehensive way. The European Community's disregard for Russia will lead them to find new allies abroad. Russia will ally itself with two of the world's up-and-coming super powers. These will be China and India, the two most populated countries in the world. This tripartite alliance will dominate world affairs because of Russia's technology and political leadership and India and China's will to pursue military and economic agreements with Russia. Russia will not choose to ally itself with these countries
catastrophe in the making, but for one crucial caveat: India, China and America did not ratify the treaty. These countries happen to be the global leaders in carbon emission. To understand why, let us begin with the way humans think. Extinction-level events wow us, snail-paced doom not so much. Therefore, any fallout from climate change that may occur at the turn of the century or beyond is too far off for anyone to care, at least past political photo-ops. Then, we have the Industrial Revolution of the
