1 Mai 1917 Jahr - Kerensky's Government

Beschreibung:

A government formed in included the fiery agrarian socialist Alexander Kerensky, who became prime minister in July. Kerensky refused to confiscate large landholdings and give them to peasants, fearing that such drastic action would complete the disintegration of Russia’s peasant army. The army’s commander in chief, General Lavr Kornilov, led a feeble coup against the provisional Kerensky government in September. In the face of this rightist counter-revolutionary threat, the Bolsheviks reemerged. Kornilov’s forces disintegrated, but Kerensky lost all credit with the army, the only force that might have saved democratic government in Russia.
