Unrest and violence in Petrograd during the Russian Revolution

At the early stage of the Russian Revolution, there is growing unrest with soldiers turning against officers and the police being killed by rioters in Petrograd. The violence escalates as prisoners are released, symbols of the imperial family are torn down, and the population becomes increasingly bloodthirsty. The Duma is dissolved but becomes a focal point for dissent, while the spark that ignites the revolution occurs when workers and soldiers clash in Nevsky Prospect. This leads to a decisive moment where the public demands the abdication of the czar and questions the fate of the Romanovs.
