International Women's Day In Russia
March 8th is International Women's Day, a day celebrating the political, economic, and social achievements of women and a time when men throughout the world will honor the special women in their lives. Though the holiday is global, few people place as much importance on International Women's Day as the citizens of Russia.
The History of International Women's Day in Russia
In 1913, the women of Russia observed International Women's Day for the first time. Female activists joined together to protest World War I and by 1914 women from other European countries added their voices to the protests in an expression of women's solidarity.
These initial protests were only the beginning. On March 8, 1917, Russian women began striking "for bread and peace" in response to the deaths of over 2 million Russian soldiers in World War I. Their voices helped pave the way for the Czar's abdication and the leaders that followed agreed to grant Russian women the right to vote. Russian feminist Alexandra Kollontai came to power in the following years and in addition to championing women's rights and serving as the world's first female ambassador, she also persuaded Lenin to declare International Women's a Day a public holiday in the Soviet Union.
International Women's Day Today
International Women's Day is an official holiday in Russia and has been so since 1965. Banks, official businesses, and educational institutions all close and nearly everyone has the day off work. It is a day when friends, family, and coworkers celebrate together.
Though International Women's Day started as a feminist holiday it is now more of a cross between St. Valentine's Day and Mother's Day. Men honor women for their beauty, femininity, and mothering skills and present gifts of flowers, chocolate, perfume, makeup, etc. Breakfast in bed and a day's respite from household chores are also treats women enjoy on this special day. Unlike Mother's Day or Valentine's Day, however, men honor all women on International Women's Day. Every woman receives something special.
Although the holiday has gone from a celebration of women's achievements to a celebration of women in general, International Women's Day is still a significant holiday in Russia and its importance will continue for decades to come. On Monday, March 8th, Russian men and women and millions of other people around the world will mark this momentous day.

Was Nicholas II of Russia considered a Czar or a Prime Minister?
I'm working on a project for my history class and I can't figure out if he was the Czar or the Prime Minister of Russia, or both? Every website I go to tells me different. It's important that I know this very soon, so many answers please! 
Tsar Nicholas was an autocrat and ruled the Russian empire by divine right,Not that this did him any good in 1918,when he,along with his entire immediate family,were murdered by the Bolsheviks.
