How could it have been prevented? One of the main reasons why this revolution started was because there was nothing done about the problems Russian peasants and Russian workers were experiencing. The living conditions were very poor the lack of food was also a factor and the long working hours. If the tsar had addressed even a few of these issues the incentive to revolt would not exist by resolving a few of the problems stated, it would show the people of Russia that the tsar knows about the problems that his people were undergoing and it would show his people that yes “the little father” did in fact care for the wellbeing and was doing something to make the quality of life better for them, but of course the opposite was done showing the abandonment Russia’s leader had toward his people through the unjust killings of the bloody Sunday.
