A group called the Dumas are causing Czar Nicholas II loose most of his control and because of this, the government has little to no power. On March 8th, 1917 starving people raid the streets for bread. 90,000 people are on strike at this point, and police can not stop them. They destroy police stations and refuse to stop the protest. Raids go on throught the rest of the month.
