Explanation:

Russian peasants were the most promiment social class among a highly Rural country, that lacked the latests industrial conditions and urban context compared to its european neighbours.  Around eighty percent of Russia’s population were peasants living in rural communities.They were bound to the landlords who deeply served the political power and perpetuated the worst living conditions of Medieval age.

The Living and working conditions for most peasants were horrible, famine and short life expectancy were usual. People worked for long hours, their wages were very low and rent was high. In the 1800's some factory towns people lived in overcrowded slums and there were very few sanitary facilities. Poor living and working conditions existed all the way, while other causes of the Bolshevik seizure of power came in later on.

The Poor Living and Working Conditions ultimately led for Bolsheviks' Seizure of Power in 1917 as centuries later would this be seen. Forced off the land, millions of peasants came into the recently formed towns, or worked harvesting , manufacturing in rural factories and mines. During the early 1900s the old regime the Empire's urban population grew from 7 to 28 million people.
