Why was the formation of the Petrograd Soviet considered the beginning of alternative power in the February Revolution?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because it organised workers and soldiers as a representative power

The Petrograd Soviet was a council representing workers and soldiers, formed during the collapse of Tsarist authority in 1917. Its creation mattered because it gave organised political voice to groups that had previously been excluded from direct state power. Therefore option C is correct. It became an alternative centre of authority alongside the Provisional Government, producing the situation later described as dual power. The Soviet did not build a palace for the Tsar, unite foreign banks, or win the war immediately. Its importance lay in representation, mobilisation and control over popular forces in the capital.
