Who brought communism to Russia in 1917?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Vladimir Lenin and the Bolshevik Party brought "communism" to Russia in 1917 through the October Revolution. It should be noted that true communism was never instituted in Russia (or in any other country for that matter). The revolution brought a socialist state to Russia. The theory was that socialism would eventually evolve into communism generations later. It never did.

What were the social conditions in Russia before Lenin?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Russia at the time of the revolution was under the autocratic rule of Tsar Nicholas II who believed in the Divine Right of Kings. A system of governance unsuited to needs of modern times.

The Russian empire was vast and feudal. The bureaucracy was top heavy, inefficient and recruited from the privileged classes rather than on the basis of merit and ability. The Russian Tsars had built a vast empire by conquest of various nationalities. They were subjected to Russian culture and languages. The Tsar showed little concern to their sensitivity.

His website has always said he's single, but he's referred to his girlfriend in interviews, and then at a fan convention a couple years ago he mentioned his wife getting him an iPod for Christmas. I'm assuming him and the girlfriend got married.

How did Lenin and the Bolsheviks take over the government?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Vladimir Lenin was the leader of the Bolshevik Party with many thousands of followers. In 1917, they staged the October Revolution and deposed the existing Provisional Government, which had been set up after the Tsar abdicated the previous March. The Bolshevik Party with its military force, the Red Guard, took over all organs of government and declared itself in power. Most people were glad to see the Provisional Government go, so they did not rise to its defense. The Bolsheviks were in power but barred all other political parties from participating in the government.

The Russian Civil War broke out but Lenin's Red forces defeated the opposing White forces. During the Civil War, more than a year after the Tsar had stepped down and about nine months after the October Revolution, Lenin ordered the execution of Tsar Nicholas and his entire family. Once the Civil War was over, Lenin and the Bolsheviks were in sole power over Russia.

What was a slogan of the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Not so much a slogan.. more a decree

peace land bread

It should be counted as a slogan since it appeared on many posters prior to the Bolshevik Revolution. Lenin also used as a rallying cry the slogan: "All power to the Soviets." This meant that all political and military power should be in the hands of the soviets, or councils of workers and soldiers that sprang up in many cities just prior to the revolution.

Why do people have funerals?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It would be obscenely rude to not have a funeral for someone who has lived a good, productive life who was loved by many and is missed by all who knew that person. Funerals honor the life of the deceased, as the wake is just for that purpose, and for the grieving of the life lost. Funerals are reverent as everyone is supposed to wear their best clothes, or what they would wear for church, if not better. Cremations, though preferable to some, are comletely different than funerals, as cremations burn the body into ashes and have the ashes placed into an urn (vase) for safe keeping. Funerals preserve the body, though cremations are considerably cheaper (urns are cheaper than coffins). Funerals preserve the body because it is believed by many that that same body is to be resurrected when Christ comes back.

What were the reactions of Joseph Stalin and Leon Trotsky to Lenin's death?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Stalin was glad to be rid of Lenin so that he could now take over the Communist Party and the Soviet Union himself. Stalin had been running the government behind Lenin's back with Grigory Zinoviev and Lev Kamenev. Now he did not have to hide it. Also, Stalin was making disparaging remarks about Lenin because of his invalided condition after his strokes.

Trotsky was sad to see Lenin go, but at the same time worried because he knew what Stalin would try to eliminate him now that Lenin was no longer there to keep Stalin in line.
