Solution
The correct option is D First World War When the First World War broke out in 1914, the Tsar sent his army to participate in it. People were already suffering from food shortage and low wages. The world war increased the ongoing crisis and weakened the army. Tsar's participation and the defeat in the first world war burst out the crisis that resulted in the February Revolution.
