About This Novel

The Russian Empire's national power reached an unprecedented peak in the 19th century. It was one of the world powers at that time and called itself the Third Rome. However, when Europe successively carried out the Industrial Revolution in the late 19th century, it did not keep up with the times. As a result, its economic strength was far less than that of other major European countries in the era of Nicholas II in the early 20th century. In August 1914, the politically turbulent Russia entered World War I. The unbearable war situation directly led to the outbreak of the February Revolution in 1917. Nicholas II signed an abdication statement. The Russian Empire was destroyed and the Russian Republic was established. However, it was overthrown by the Bolsheviks through the October Revolution in the same year and replaced by Soviet Russia (Soviet Russia).
