Tsar Nicholas II who was the leader of Russia before Russian Revolution of 1917. With the outbreak of World War I, Russia was allied to France and Britain against Germany and Hungry. In mid-1915 Nicholas made the disastrous decision to take direct command of the Russian armies. From then on, every military failure was directly associated with him. Since most wars tend to be inflationary in nature, this pushed up prices of domestic goods in the Russian homeland causing people to face significant economic hardships. Extremely unhappy Russian citizens gave rise to a rebellious environment in which Lenin seized power.
