I don't know. Was pre-Soviet Russia more or less advanced than Soviet Russia?

How advanced were any of us pre-Soviet Russia?

"Was pre-Soviet Russia more or less advanced than Soviet Russia? "

I've read that the peasants were much better off under the czars than under communism, in terms of nutrition, wealth, freedom, etc. As for relative technology, I don't know since we're talking about a relatively short time period.
