Explanation

This exam-style task requires a developed historical argument rather than a list of facts. Begin with the relevant period from Paper 1 Section A: Period studies, then anchor the answer in Part one: The end of Tsardom. The evidence should connect to Study Russia's economy and society, including industrialisation and living and working conditions in cities and villages and be explained through cause, consequence, change, continuity, significance or interpretation as appropriate. A strong final judgement shows why the selected evidence is more convincing than a vague or unsupported claim.

Common mistake

Avoid confusing russia

A common mistake is to write about russia as a general opinion, or to mix up cause, consequence, change and continuity in 1894-1945.

Anchor the answer to Part one: The end of Tsardom, use precise evidence, and state whether russia is a cause, consequence, change, continuity or significant development.
