On Sunday, 25 February, the government suspended the Duma. Politicians spoke out against the measure. Demonstrators returned in force to the streets of the left bank on the 26th.On the 27th, the Police Headquarters were ransacked. The streets thronged with people raising slogans about bread,wages,better hours and democracy. The government tried to control the situation and called out the cavalry. However, the cavalry refused to fire on the demonstrators. An officer was shot at the barracks of a regiment and three other regiments mutinied,voting to join the striking workers. By that evening,soldiers and striking workers had gathered to form a 'soviet' or 'council' in the same building as the Duma met. This was the Petrograd soviet.
The very next day, a delegation went to see the Tsar. Military commanders advised him to abdicate. He followed their advice and abdicated on 2 March.
Lenin took over and the czar's entire family was killed
First, the czar fell from power in March (February by the Russia calendar at the time). An uprising forced him to abdicate and a democratic Provisional Government took his place. Lenin and the Bolsheviks overthrew that government in November, 1917. The czar did not die until July, 1918, after the outbreak of civil war.
Long Answer: This revolution had it's origins in Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels writings. Marx and Engels promoted the right of the proletariat to seize power over the bourgeousie. Marx and Engels wrote from early 1850's to 90's. The Communist Manifesto was a timeless piece written by Marx and Engels that described how the working class must fight to gain power. Vladimir Lenin took this idea of the proletariat revolting against the ruling bourgeousie and exploited it. The First World War was occurring at this time and Lenin saw that the ruling monarch was preoccupied, so he took control of the situation. There were riots in the streets and eventually Lenin gained power and killed the monarch and his family.
Short Answer: Vladimir Lenin was greedy and relied on the naivety of the Russian working class and peasantry to fulfill his needs. A revolution was the only way for Lenin to realize his needs of full seizure of state power.

There were many causes for the revolution on Russia in March 1917. There was intense debate that could not be solved.
One of the major reasons as to why the Tsarist regime in Russia declined was as a result of the involvement of Russia in the World War I. The stability of Russia could not be underestimated.
Judging from your question, I assume you mean the 1917 October revolution. If so, Russia was on the brink of total revolution because of the unfair treatment of the workers and peasants by the Tsarist Autocracy. The Tsars had full power and there were no laws or codes that even slightly hindered their power. This was intensified when Russia lost the Russo-Japanese war of 1905, and finally culminated into the October Revolution, which overthrew the Autocracy and ushered the Bolsheviks into power.
They assumed power in 1917 and they had total control by 1921.

No because a monarchy is ruled by a king and autocracy is ruled by more than one person
YesRussian Revolution (1917) was a series of economic and social upheavals in Russia, involving first the overthrow of the tsarist autocracy, and then the overthrow of the liberal and moderate-socialist Provisional Government, resulting in the establishment of Soviet power under the control of the Bolshevik party. This eventually led to the establishment of the Soviet Union in 1922, which lasted until its dissolution in 1991.

A government controlled by a Tsar (Czar) is called a Tsarist Autocracy. Essentially a form of absolute monarchy.
The Russian Revolution is a collective term for a series of Revolutions in 1917. The outfall was the demise of the Tsarist autocracy and the formation of the Russian SFSR.
Tsarist autocracy consisted of principles promoting the idea of the divine leader leading his people like a parent and caring for and protecting them in a paternal manner. People fell in happily enough with the image of the tsar being their ‘little father’ and were taught by the Russian Orthodox Church to obey the tsar because he had been anointed by God.
Autocracy can also be called despotism.
Absolute monarchy is most similar to which other system of government
