Prince Lvov
-Petrograd Soviet and the Provisional Government the two strong factions
-Provisional Government led by Prince Lvov
-First Prime Minister of Russia
Sweet Father and Mother,
It was already clear to me about a week ago that there was no way out. Without a doubt the country is heading for a general slaughter, famine, the collapse of the front, where half the soldiers will perish, and the ruin of the urban population. The cultural inheritance of the nation, its people and civilization, will be destroyed. Armies of migrants, then small groups, and then maybe no more than individual people, will roam around the country fighting each other with rifles and then no more than clubs. I will not live to see it, and, I hope, neither will you.

Alexander Kerensky
-Alexander Kerensky replaced Lvov as the second Prime Minister of Russia.
-Both try to keep Russia in WWI
-Unpopular
- Last Prime Minister of Russia in the Provisional Government.
-Later overthrown by the Bolsheviks
The Russian people are suffering from economic fatigue and from disillusionment with the Allies! The world thinks the Russian Revolution is at an end. Do not be mistaken. The Russian Revolution is just beginning.
-Alexander Kerensky
