Explanation
Answer: B - The Russian Revolution of 1905 created a constitutional monarchy by creating the Dumas, a representative Parliamentary body. The revolution broke out after Russia's defeat in the Russo-Japanese War and signified the general discontent of the Russian lower classes. Russia was well behind the other European nations, though the liberalism that characterized the era emerged in Russia through this revolt. The goals were to give individuals a voice in government and improve conditions for workers. Its success would encourage some revolutionaries to advance the more ambitious program of the second Russian Revolution in 1917.
