ATTITUDE OF THE PROVINCIAL SOCIETY TO THE EMPEROR NICHOLAS II ON THE EVE OF THE FIRST WORLD WAR (ON THE MATERIALS OF THE KALUGA PROVINCE)
The article attempts to research the attitude of the Kaluga provincial society to the Emperor Nicholas II on the eve of the First World War, to determine which public opinion was formed on the issues of state management by the last Russian autocrat. In Kaluga, as well as throughout Russia, the 300th anniversary of the house of the Romanovs was celebrated. The materials for the glory of the imperial dynasty of Nicholas II were prepared for this significant event, as well as a number of events dedicated to the most important events from the rule of the Romanov dynasty. Although there were several cases of expressing dissatisfaction of the Nicholas II’s rule by the inhabitants of the province, but they were isolated and could not fundamentally affect on the favorable attitude towards the emperor as a whole in a provincial society.
Key words: Nicholas II, The First World War, Kaluga province, public opinion, provincial society.
