The word "soviet" comes from the Russian word for "council". Prior to the revolution, councils of workers' deputies, or representatives, sprang up in many of the larger cities in Russia. The Soviets became a quasi governmental force, because they had the support of the people. They had the political power to organize demonstrations and strikes if the government did not address the needs of the people. The soviets remained in place after the Tsar abdicated to make sure the new Provisional Government did the right thing. All soviets were later abolished by Vladimir Lenin after the Bolshevik Revolution.
