Explanation:

In the 2014 book: "Revolutionary Russia" The British historian Orlando Figes outlined the culminating events that led to the eventual revolution against the Imperial Czar family. According to Figes, the famine of 1890-1891 was so sever that crops froze without germination, and farm animals died on the roadside. The Czar first responded authoritatively by ordering the press to not call the event a "famine"

The eventual food supplies and relief materials that came, and the organisation of its distribution was not appealing to the masses. At this stage, the people had lost hope in their monarchy, who was seen as just trying to buy the blind loyalty of his subject by providing them with just the most meager of needs.
