    - The Kadets ([blank_start]Constitutional[blank_end] Democrats) were a middle-class liberal party that wanted [blank_start]peaceful[blank_end] political change with the elected Duma gaining real power. However, their support was mostly [blank_start]limited[blank_end] to more wealthy and more [blank_start]educated[blank_end] people living in towns and cities.
    - The Social Revolutionaries (SRs) wanted to seize power by [blank_start]revolution[blank_end]. They had some support from the [blank_start]peasants[blank_end], as the plan was to take land from the [blank_start]landlords[blank_end] and give it to them. However, it was difficult to [blank_start]organise[blank_end] the peasants, scattered as they were across large areas of land.
    - The [blank_start]Social[blank_end] Democrats had support mostly from [blank_start]workers[blank_end] in the factories. They believe in the communist teachings of Karl Marx. However, in [blank_start]1903[blank_end] the party split into two groups - The Mensheviks and the Bolsheviks. The [blank_start]Bolsheviks[blank_end] were the [blank_start]smaller[blank_end] group who believed that revolution was possible, even if they did not have mass support, if it was plotted in [blank_start]secret[blank_end] and carried out ruthlessly. The leader of the Bolsheviks was [blank_start]Lenin[blank_end].

  9. 9The effects of the war were increasingly felt in the [blank_start]cities[blank_end]. There were food shortages, with prices rising by up to [blank_start]700[blank_end] per cent over three years. Workers' wages only increased by [blank_start]200[blank_end] per cent in the same period. Food was in short supply because much good farming land was occupied by the [blank_start]Germans[blank_end]. In some areas there was a shortage of peasants to farm the land as so many ha been [blank_start]conscripted[blank_end] into the armies.
    Also, transport was inefficiently organised. Engines an [blank_start]trucks[blank_end] would be commandeere for moving troops or supplies, leaving food for the cities rotting in railway sidings. In 1917 only [blank_start]700[blank_end] wagons of grain reached Moscow, compared to the 22,000 in [blank_start]1913[blank_end]. Many railway engineers had been called up to fight, leaving a shortage of [blank_start]skilled[blank_end] people to carry out basic repairs to engines and trucks.
