The February Revolution was the first of the two revolutions that took place in 1917 and that ended for good the tsarist Russian Empire.
The revolution emerged near Petrograd (current St.Peterburg) that was the capital of Russia at the time. Russian people was disatisfied with the monarchy and the food rationings. Mass demonstrations were celebrated and there were violent confrontations against the police and gendarmes that remained loyal to the tsar (while the army sided with the revolutionaires). <u>This conflict led to the abdication of Tsar Nicholas II and to the end of the Romanov dynasty. </u>
This belief is based on an object that was discovered only a century ago. It has already earned a place alongside the Rosetta Stone as one of the most important artifacts of the ancient world. This stela (stone pillar) bears the inscription of the Code of Hammurabi, and it has shed light on the laws, culture and life in Babylonia.
