Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Because Russia was in great crisis during 1917, and most of population including soldiers didn't wanted war to continue, especially the Revolution of March 1917.

Step-by-step explanation:

Even most members of the Provisional Government that was created during 1917 were keen to steer Russia toward a Western-style constitutional parliamentary democracy.

They even initiated reforms in this direction, introducing civil and religious freedoms, equality before the law, trade union rights and eight hours and other liberal reforms, but due to inexperience and the disagreements got stuck in several major issues such as agrarian reform and Russia's exit from the war, which will cause further unrest across Russia.
