From where did the Provisional Government get legitimacy and from where did it face challenge in the February Revolution?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Legitimacy from Duma leaders and challenge from Soviets

The direct answer is A: the Provisional Government gained legitimacy from Duma leaders and faced challenge from the Soviets. After the Tsar abdicated, leading members of the Duma formed a Provisional Government to run the state. Its connection with the representative Duma gave it an institutional basis and some public legitimacy. At the same time, workers and soldiers formed Soviets, especially the Petrograd Soviet, which had strong influence over people and troops. Therefore authority was divided: the Provisional Government officially governed, but the Soviets could support, pressure or challenge it. This situation is called dual power. Option A is correct. Option B is wrong because the Tsar had abdicated and the Church was not the main challenger. Option C is wrong because foreign banks did not provide the central political legitimacy, and the option misstates the main challenge. Option D is wrong because police and the palace were not the sources described. Exam cue: Duma-based government plus Soviets’ influence equals dual power.
