Answer:
False.
Step-by-step explanation:
Before the Russo-Japanese War Czar Nicholas (Стар Николас) did engage in some form of repression and secret police to quell protestors and rioters because Nicholas had failed Russia and its people and he wasn’t popular at all.
And after the war with Japan, Russia lost, which led to a huge outcry of violence from the people to get rid of Nicholas, thus prompting him to use more secret police and repression tactics to quell insurrection.
If I remember correctly, after Nicholas II died (death due to the Bolshevik (Болшевик) thus bringing an end to the Romanov (Романов) family line), the Russian monarchy was brought to an end and in its place, the communists and socialists rose to power, which leads to the creation of the Soviet Union near the year 1920.
