Think About
It...
The Russian Revolution was an expected event that was unexpected...
The Russian Revolution of 1917 is also called the Bolshevik Revolution or the October Revolution. In 1917
there were actually two revolutions in Russia. One was the February Revolution in which the Tsar abdicated his throne and
the Provisional Government took power. The other was the October Revolution in which the Provisional Government
was overthrown by the Bolsheviks.The Russian Revolution of 1917 played a very important role in world history. There
were many revolutionary leaders that stepped up a played a big part including : Leon Trotsky, Valdimir Lenin, Joseph Stalin
and ''the father of communism'', Karl Marx. They saw this time period as an opportunity
to finally take control over their destiny and to rule them selves. The Provisional Government was in power, and many
of the problems that helped them overthrow the Tsar still existed: Russia was still doing badly in the war, bread was still
scarce and the people were calling for more drastic changes. The newly released radical leaders were whipping the common people
into a frenzy and the policies of the Provisional Government were not helping them. This caused trouble to errupt, and led
to the Revolution. The Russian Revolution was a time that exploded into something big.
