The Bolshevik Revolution


The current government in my counrty first started with the October 1917 revolution led by the Bolshevik Party. This led to the rise of communism in Russia. The Revolution was led by Vladimir Lenin. The revolt was against the monarchy of the Romanov family since Russia had been a monarchy for many centuries, the working class were very poor and the rich upper class were very rich. Even though this revolution succeeded many Russians were no better off. The Bolsheviks did a lot to make Russia a better country eventually. We now have a Federation government with a Prime Minister.
