Satirical journals 1905-1906

Russia had a rich history of satirical journalism. At the end of the 19th century satirical writing went underground until 1905, the year of the first Russian Revolution. For a short period satirical journals flourished and expanded their numbers. It is assumed that some 380 satirical magazines, journals and one-dailies appeared between January 1905 and April 1906 when the first Duma was opened and the state power again suppressed the satirical journals.
