      and the revolution happened because Rasputin put a curse on the Romanovs

      material conditions and even ideology had nothing to do with it, communism is a wizard's spell

        Also the Russian people secretly loved the Tsar, just ignore all that trivial unrest and revolution (basically irrelevant and had nothing to do with him) haha
