Nicholas II of Russia abdicated the throne on March 15, 1917, during the Russian Revolution. He left his throne while in the Russian city of Tsarskoye Selo, near St. Petersburg, where he was under pressure from both the military and the public due to widespread discontent with his rule. Following his abdication, he and his family were placed under house arrest, ultimately leading to their tragic fate in 1918.
