The Russian Revolution.

The Russian Revolution started because the Russian people didn't like how Czar was running Russia. While being in war the military hardly had food & were being killed by millions because of their low technology. Russia then decided that they wanted a new government called Communism. This cause to revolutionize & this is when Lenin and Bolshevik became leaders of the revolution. There was a March in which made Czar step down of the power & Bolshevik took over Russia. Lenin then promised & quoted "Peace, Land, and Bread." He promised them peace because the Russians weren't at rest. They were fighting World War I for a few years now. Lenin promised them land because they lost lots of land & getting it back would make them more successful. Lenin promised Russia bread because they were in a famine, meaning there were food shortages. They were suffering through starvation.
