The Constitution of 1906 was a significant legal document in Russia that established a constitutional monarchy. It was introduced by Tsar Nicholas II following the 1905 Revolution, which demanded political reforms and civil liberties. The constitution aimed to create a legislative assembly called the Duma, allowing for limited participation of the public in governance. Despite its progressive intentions, the Constitution of 1906 had limitations. The Duma had restricted powers, and the Tsar retained significant authority, including the ability to dissolve the assembly. This led to ongoing political tensions and dissatisfaction among various social groups, ultimately contributing to the Russian Revolution of 1917.
