Explain the major causes of the Russian Revolution of 1917 It took ?three centuries to build? the Russian Government, ?and three days for it to vanish. Although the Russian monarchy was toppled, the regime was untouched. There were years of tension that lead to the Russian Revolution. Some were long term causes and some were immediate causes. The causes include the oppression of Serfs, the agricultural economy, strikes and riots, the losses of World War I, the failures of imperialism, and Bloody Sunday. The stubborn autocracy of the Czars made it impossible for any change. Sadly, the only way for everlasting reform to be brought to Russia was the shedding of blood.

Henry VIII of England was one of the most famous and influential rulers in the history of England. He was the second monarch of the Tudor Dynasty. Henry is still widely-known for having six wives, and also for breaking off from the Roman Catholic Church to form the Church of England. Henry VIII was born on a bright summer day on June 28th, 1491 at the London Greenwich Palace as the latest boy born into the Tudor family. He was a handsome child, having said to look very similar to his mother, Queen Elizabeth of York. Henry?s father was the very Henry VII, a lean, sharp-faced man who was the first King of the Tudor Dynasty and ruled for nearly 24 years. Henry VIII was a somewhat chubby child, and this stature was only a foreshadowing of what he eventually would become.
