Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: C

Explanation

Both statements are correct and accurately describe events of the Russian Revolution of 1905. The revolution was sparked by the 'Bloody Sunday' incident on January 22, 1905, when Tsar Nicholas II's troops fired on a peaceful procession of workers led by Father Gapon, killing over 100 people. This event triggered a wave of strikes and protests across the Russian Empire. During this period of unrest, various professional groups, including lawyers, doctors, and engineers, organized themselves into the Union of Unions. This body, along with other revolutionary groups, demanded political reforms, civil liberties, and the establishment of a Constituent Assembly. These pressures eventually forced the Tsar to issue the October Manifesto, which promised civil rights and the creation of an elected legislative body called the Duma.
