Russia did not become the Soviet Union in 1918. After the Bolshevik takeover, Russia became the "Russian Soviet Federal Socialist Republic." (RSFSR) After the Russian Civil War, the RSFSR signed the Soviet Union Treaty with Ukraine, Belorussia and the Transcaucasus Federation (Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan). The treaty was ratified in 1924 and the name was changed to the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR).
In 1918, differences included the overthrow of the Tsarist rule, the establishment of the Communist government, the abolition of private ownership of property, nationalization of factories, banks and other businesses and the onset of the Russian Civil War. Not much changed for the workers and peasants as they were still oppressed and exploited. The Communist secret police were every bit as cruel as had been the Tsarist secret police. Dissent was still not permitted. The economy of the country even worsened from what it had been under the Tsarist government.
