Technically speaking, both October and November Revolution would be correct due to the difference in calendar. Also, there was a March Revolution too, so it would've been better if you mention the second revolution.

You're so wrong lmao

No one says in Russia "November" or "March" Revolution. It is deeply ingrained in culture to name these events after the days in Julian calendar.

Really, really bad quiz! All quizzes about Russia are so poorly made, smh

3. The correct answer for ruler is the Emperor, not the Tsar. Russia was the Empire since 1721. You can check wikipedia for that matter. I can agree that you can use both of these titles, but it doesn't really makes sense to state the Tsar as the only correct answer.

4&5. Can you elaborate, please? There were three revolutions in Russia: First Russian revolution (1905), February revolution (1917), October Revolution (1917). I get that all answers lead to the only right answer, but it's still wrong to just say the "Russian Revolution" when there were three of them.

6. I don't really know why you'd include that type of question in the quiz about Russian Revolution. 97% guessed it and it's really obvious. Should have asked about Prodrazverstka or something else.

7. Ya, this question is really ambiguous. There were three revolutions, you should have elaborated it. Either 1905 or February 1917.

10. The October Revolution is used more than the Bolshevik Revolution among people.

11. Communist Russia is also used to refer to the Russian Socialist Federative Soviet Republic. Technically, it counts as the new country cuz it's a totally new type of government apart from the Russian Empire and the Russian Republic

Overall, you should have included less known questions about the revolution and not some random and obvious topics
