QUESTION 3 QUESTION 3   3 Study Extrаct C аnd then аnswer the questiоn that fоllоws. (16)   Extract C: From an online article on Nicholas II, published in 2014. The main cause of Nicholas II’s abdication was his own mistakes. In 1915, he made the disastrous decision to take direct command of the Russian army. From then on, every military failure was blamed on him. With Nicholas away at the front, his German-born wife Alexandra took a more active role in government. She soon became a reason for discontent. In February 1917, widespread demonstrations began in Petrograd. Nicholas lost the support of the army and was forced to abdicate. Extract C suggests that the main cause of Nicholas II’s abdication was his own mistakes. How far do you agree with this interpretation? Use Extract C, Sources A and B and your own knowledge to explain your answer.
