Ferdinand I's abdication was influenced by which major event?

  • The Great Depression

  • Russian Revolution

  • Stock Market Crash

  • Fall of the Ottoman Empire

Answer

Ferdinand I's abdication was indeed influenced by the Russian Revolution. The revolutionary fervor and the instability in Russia spread to neighboring countries, including Austria-Hungary, where Ferdinand I was the emperor. Fears of social unrest and the potential spread of revolutionary ideas prompted him and his family to abdicate in November 1918, effectively marking the end of their rule and leading to the dissolution of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
