After the First Revolution, Russia entered a new - short but important - period in its history. In the last ten years of the existence of the Russian Empire, there was a parliament in the country, uncensored press, legal parties, and therefore - public policy. The circle of people who tried to professionally engage in politics was largely represented by the 'Union of October 17', which found itself on the right flank of Russian liberalism. Among the Octoberists who directly influenced the political life of that time were leaders of the zemstvo movement, prominent entrepreneurs, former high-ranking officials, well-known lawyers, and historians. Who were they? What ideas did they share? Whom did they represent? How did they build relationships with society and the government? How does their example help understand what politics is and who a politician was a hundred years ago? Through the history of this party, the author tells about the Duma period in the history of the Russian Empire - a time when the Russia that ultimately did not materialize began to take shape.
