How did the First World War lead to revolution in Russia and the disintegration of several once-powerful empires? (The Earth and Its Peoples, 776)
The first World War, also known as the Great War or “the war to end all wars”, had a profound impact on the societies across the globe, especially the industrialized nations of Europe and the United States. At the start of the war, in 1914, Russia had a larger military than any nation in the world, albeit underequipped, and inadequately trained. More than anything else, Russia’s economy and national spirit were hit hard by the war. The Ottoman Empire was also devastated. Being in a fractured state politically, and hurting economically, it was ill prepared for true competition. It…show more content…
Instead of ending the state’s involvement in the war, this government launched a fresh offensive against Germany, which ultimately failed, increasing anti-governmental sentiment among the Russian people. Collectively, these events were known as “The February Revolution”, because of their occurrence in the Russian month of February.
Following this uprising, various socialist groups surfaced, with political views rooted in Marxist views – the main two being the Mensheviks and the Bolsheviks. The Bolsheviks were led by Vladimir Lenin, a radical who had spent most of his life abroad, studying socialist ideals and building a following. The Mensheviks, with a majority of workers and intellectuals, favored an electoral system with European-style reforms. When Lenin returned to Russia in 1917, the Bolsheviks were bolstered, in both quantity and motivation. The war was dragging on and the Russian public was frustrated and desperate. A power struggle developed between the provincial government and the Bolshevik party. This lasted for several months until Lenin and his supporters overthrew the government in Petrograd, capturing the Winter Palace, former home of the Russian monarchs.

Answer:
In response to the actions of the Patriot Colonist, the British Parliament responded by enacting the Boston Port Act, the Massachusetts Government Act, the Administration of Justice Act, the Quartering Act. The laws were retaliatory and intentionally designed to inflict undesirous conditions upon Massachusetts.
The Patriot Colonists, otherwise known or referred to as <em>American Whigs</em>, were colonies who rejected British Rule. They were thirteen of them. Their actions involved the destruction of 342 chests of tea in Boston, Massachusetts because the British Parliament had enacted the Tea Act, automatically conferring a monopoly status on British East India Company (BEIC) which sold tea in the colonies. The Tea Act prevented BEIC from sinking into bankruptcy. This may have been tolerated if there was nothing else, but the Act also added a small tax, an action which vexed the colonists and triggered what their action which became labelled by historians as the Boston Tea Party.
The "punishment" on Massachusetts backfired. It attracted the sympathy of other colonies and even the support of The Congress who pledged to support Massachusetts in case of attack from the Britons.
