Detailed Solution

World War I was initially popular in Russia, and people rallied around Tsar Nicholas II. The Tsar, however, declined to consult the major Duma parties as the war dragged on. Anti-German feelings were quite strong, as evidenced by the renaming of St. Petersburg—a German name—to Petrograd.
