Answer 1

Answer: (B), (C)

The correct options are
B Farmers were exempted from tax.
C Tsars in Russia supported democracy.

At the beginning of the 20th century, Russia was experiencing widespread poverty. Foreign factory owners controlled the majority of the Russian factories. The meagre industrial production resulted in overtime workers. Farmers and factory workers in Russia led a tragic life under the autocracy of the Tsartist emperors, and the landless farmers had to pay a huge tax.
