Russia broke out into the Russian Civil War, which pitted the Bolshevik Red Army against the Tsarist/monarchist/anti Bolshevik White Army forces. The war lasted from 1918 to 1921, but some histories say it lasted till 1923 when the very last of the fighting stopped.

Russia was in the hands of a Bolshevik leader who was seen as a dictator who used terror tactics- he used the red army and CHEKA to destroy opposition, he took the land from the upper classes - aristocracy merchants etc. and gave it to the peasants. also under Lenin the USSR was developed. I hope this helpd!
