October Revolution

The October Revolution, which took place in 1917 in Russia, was a pivotal event in world history. Led by the Bolshevik Party under Vladimir Lenin, it aimed to overthrow the Provisional Government that had replaced the Tsar earlier that year. The revolution was fueled by widespread discontent due to ongoing war, economic struggles, and a desire for land reforms. The Bolsheviks seized key government buildings and power, ultimately establishing a communist government. This event marked the beginning of the Soviet Union and significantly influenced global politics, economics, and ideology throughout the 20th century.
