.... produce combined with low wages severely affected all Europeans. Merchants, bankers and lawyers with rising cash incomes adjusted to the economic conditions and they prospered. Workers rioted and had strikes, in attempt to obtain higher wages. Sixteenth century intellectuals blamed this inflation on the import of American treasure in Europe. Modern historians have a different opinion on the causes of inflation. The price of wheat and other basic foods increased before the arrival of American gold and silver.

.... events by which the Americans felt their rights violated. The British wanted to collect tax for revenue, from the Americans, who felt they were dispossessed from the right of self- taxation. The Americans felt that they should be able to manage their own taxation, or to select people to manage their taxation. What they absolutely did not want, was the British taking care of their taxation. They did not want taxation without representation.

He failed the first time he tried to get admission and in the next year, 1907 he tried again and was very sure of success. To his surprise he failed again.

On March 8, a huge crowd marched through the streets to demand the government to put an end to the bread shortage. Police officers broke up the march, but a few days later the demonstration grew and became stronger in the process. On March 11, troops were ordered by government officials to end the riots, but instead of restoring order the soldiers stood by or even joined in the chaos. The desertion of the local army caused the government to crumble. Czar Nicholas II resigned office March 15 not only from the enormous popular action but also from hi .....
