Particularly strong hostility was caused by the attempts of the nobles to infiltrate various committees in the villages, which aroused the hostility of the communal peasants. However, the further political activity of the noble organizations is already beginning to provoke a strong rejection of the new government. Similar resolutions are adopted by the meetings of the leaders and deputies of the nobility of the Samara Province on March 5, the Moscow Province on March 13. The Permanent Council of the organization sends telegrams to the localities calling for "quiet work and the maintenance of order", on March 9, 1917, adopts a resolution: "The nobility must direct all forces to promote the now unified legitimate government". The estate noble organization " United Nobility", which back in January 1917 declared about the "inviolability of the foundations of autocracy and readiness to serve it with faith and truth", after the February Revolution, sharply changed its rhetoric. The Russian Monarchist Party was banned, its leader Keltsev was placed under house arrest for several months. The oldest Black Hundred organization, the Union of Russian People, actually ceased its activity in 1910–1911. The organizations "Russian People's Union Named After Mikhail Archangel" and " Russian Assembly" also ceased their activities. According to some sources, the Main Council of the organization in Petrograd was defeated during the events. One of the leaders of the organization, Alexander Dubrovin, was arrested during the revolution. After the February Revolution, the organization curtailed its activities, disbanding its departments and destroying its archives. The main Black Hundred organization, the Union of the Russian People, was already in a protracted crisis from 1907 to 1910, splitting into several parts.
Also on March 5, the Provisional Government establishes an Extraordinary Commission of Inquiry, before which, in addition to the highest tsarist officials and generals, also the leaders of the right–wing parties appeared. Already on March 5, 1917, the executive committee of the Petrograd Soviet prohibits the publication of Black Hundred newspapers, including Russkoe Znamya and Novoye Vremya. Right–wing parties were persecuted almost immediately after the February Revolution.
Of the significant changes in the party system in 1917, the following occurred:
A number of small factions appeared that did not play a significant role in the events: the Menshevik Internationalists (Left Mensheviks), the Socialist Revolutionary Maximalists, the Russian Socialist Workers' Party of Internationalists, the Social Democratic faction "Unity" headed by Plekhanov and others.
The February revolution sharply intensifies political life in Russia, many parties, party factions and associations are formed, the total number of which reaches 50 by November 1917. Immediately after the February Revolution, the defeat of the right–wing monarchist parties and political groups takes place, the struggle between the socialist parties ( Socialist Revolutionaries, Mensheviks, Bolsheviks) and liberals ( Constitutional Democrats) on the one hand, and the struggle between moderate socialists (Mensheviks, right–wing Socialist Revolutionaries, centrist Socialist Revolutionaries) and radicals (Bolsheviks, left–wing Socialist Revolutionaries, anarchists). The Political parties of Russia in 1917 were the aggregate of the main political parties and organizations that existed in Russia in 1917.
