WORLD HISTORY

Detailed explanation-1: -Emancipation Manifesto, (March 3 [Feb. 19, Old Style], 1861), manifesto issued by the Russian emperor Alexander II that accompanied 17 legislative acts that freed the serfs of the Russian Empire.

Detailed explanation-2: -The Emancipation Reform of 1861 in Russia was the first and most important of liberal reforms effected during the reign (1855-1881) of Tsar Alexander II of Russia. The reform effectively abolished serfdom throughout the Russian Empire.

Detailed explanation-3: -In 1861, the peasants were removed from their duties and were provided the benefit to become the owner of their own land. Another change was made later, where a governing body was made to levy taxes on land. Last, was the reform that Soviet Union established between 1928 to 1940, which was named as Collectivisation.

Detailed explanation-4: -Intended to improve the social conditions of peasants and to spur an improvement in the Russian economy, emancipation failed on both counts, whilst also politically alienating land-owning nobles and disappointing reformists.
