RUSSIA'S MILITARY PERFORMANCE --> 1914 - 1916
the war began well for them, and therfore the country was filled with a strong sense of pride, this however, did not last long. the russian advance was stopped at the battle of Tannennburg in which the german generals won a crushing defeat over them. 30,000 troops were killed / wounded and 95,000 were captured
they then defeated them at the battle of lodz december 1914 and by 1915 russian forces had been completely driven out of Poland
nicholas 11 then made one of the most disaterous decisions,
he took control of the army, thus meaning that all blame was sent to him for all the failiures that were happening in the war.
he could not control an army let alone one of many millions
