The workers, soldiers and peasants of Petrograd and other cities ended the rule of the Tsars by sparking the February Revolution of 1917 in Russia. Thousands of people took to the streets demonstrating against the Tsar's running of the war, his inability to end constant food shortages and his refusal to make land reforms.
When Tsar Nicholas realized he had lost control of the military and could not stop the rioting in Petrograd and other cities, he abdicated the throne in favor of his brother Michael, who promptly refused it. The Provisional Government then took over.
Lenin and the Bolsheviks did NOT end the rule of the Tsars. Lenin and the Bolsheviks overthrew Alexander Kerensky and the Russian Provisional Government in the October Revolution. The rule of the Tsars had already been ended eight months earlier.
