History of the Russian Republic

The Russian Republic was a short-lived state which replaced the Russian Empire and ruled over the territory left after the collapse of the monarchy and abdication of Emperor Nicholas II. Proclaimed in March 1917, it was shortly dissolved after the Bolsheviks took over power, which then established Russian SFSR in January 1918. The following is a brief history of the Republic, which goes over the establishment of the Republic followed by the seize of power.
