Tsar Nicholas abdicated the throne during the February Revolution and was taken into the custody of the Provisional Government partly for his own protection and partly to keep him from being restored to the throne. He was held with the idea that he would be exiled to England, but the Bolsheviks took power from the Provisional Government in the October Revolution and forced the Provisional Government to hand Nicholas and his family over to them. In July 1918, during the Russian Civil War, the Bolsheviks murdered Nicholas and his entire family in order to ensure that he would never be able to come back to power again.

That would be Tsar Nicholas. It would not be his brother Mikhael for several reasons. First he was legally not entitled to be Tsar even if Nicholas II abdicated in his favor. Second, he refused to accept the title. And last, he was never formally crowned Tsar. In addition, he was never a leader, because immediately after the abdication, the running of the government was taken over by the members of the Provisional Government.

The Bolsheviks.To clarify:No "red party" led any revolution against Nicholas II. The "red party", the Bolsheviks, led a revolution against the Russian Provisional Government.After Tsar Nicholas II abdicated, the Russian Provisional Government was set up to replace the former Tsarist government. Nicholas was no longer in power. The Bolsheviks, the "red party," led an armed insurrection against the Provisional Government in the October Revolution and succeeded in overthrowing that government and taking control of the country.Thus, no red party led a revolution against Nicholas II.
The Bolsheviks took power from the Russian Provisional Government in November 1917 (October according to the Russian calendar). At that time the Provisional Government had already replaced Tsar Nicholas II and by November it was headed by Alexander Kerensky. The Bolsheviks did not seize power from Tsar Nicholas II. The Provisional Government was set up in place of the Tsar's government to maintain order and run the country until a new constitution could be written.

Czar Nicholas II abdicated his throne in the March Revolution of 1917. Several unfortunate decisions had made him a very unpopular monarch who had no support from any faction in Russia. A liberal democratic provisional government was put in place upon his abdication. Exiled Bolsheviks returned to Russia, successfully ousting the liberal democratic provisional government. Following their success, the Czar and his entire family were executed.
After Nicholas II was arrested, the politicians in the Duma decided to give a lead to Russia. They set up the 'Provisional Government' until elections could be held later in 1917 for the 'Constituent Assembly.' The Constituent Assembly was intended to write a new constitution to govern Russia under a democratically elected government. The Provisional Government was not very effective and did not satisfy the revolutionary demands of the soldiers, workers and peasants. When the Provisional Government lost the support of the people, Lenin and his Bolsheviks took power from the Provisional Government. The Bolsheviks survived the Russian Civil War and retained power from then on.
The Russian Provisional Government under Alexander Kerensky was overthrown by the Bolshevik Revolution. It did not overthrow Tsar Nicholas II. He had already been overthrown by the February Revolution.
