The Bolsheviks and Mensheviks split essentially because the Mensheviks were reformists and the Bolsheviks were revolutionaries. The Bolsheviks said that when the revolution finally came, the Mensheviks would sooner or later only hinder it and would betray the revolution.

Somewhat. Russia tried establishing Western models but usually ended up creating its own thing.

However, Marxism was developed in Western Europe, however, has not been established there.

What are two groups of Marxists in 1903?
In 1903, two major groups of Marxists were the Mensheviks and the Bolsheviks. These groups became divided over ideological and strategic differences, with the Mensheviks advocating for a more gradual approach to revolution and the Bolsheviks calling for a more aggressive, revolutionary stance. This split would play a crucial role in the Russian Revolution of 1917.
How were the Mensheviks different from the Bolsheviks?
They were both factions of the Marxist Russian Social and Democratic Labor Party, so their basic policies were more or less the same. The main differences were regarding the interpretation of Marx's "historical stages". Marx argued that all societies MUST go through certain economic stages of development; feudal, capitalist, socialist and communist. The Mensheviks thought that as Russia had only just got out of the feudal stage and only had policies that could be described as capitalist since the 1905 Revolution the country should be encouraged along the road of capitalism and that the proletariat taking over would be premature. The Bolsheviks came up with the idea of "telescoping" the stages of economic development. They argued that the proletariat could take power, as the capitalist stage had already happened. They were not all that different and they pursued the same ideals, but as with all political matters, neither of them quite saw eye to eye with each other on how it should be achieved. The Bolsheviks and the Mensheviks were both factions of the same political party prior to 1904. The differences that split the two groups were petty and almost childish. The Mensheviks were a little more moderate than the Bolsheviks. Menshevik is derived from a Russian word meaning "minority". Bolshevik is derived from a Russian word meaning "majority".
