Historians debate about this. Some viewpoints argue that the October Revolution was led by Lenin and Trotsky, and was more in the nature of a coup de'tat. Other historical perspectives argue that the Revolution was in fact a spontaneous movement of the people and had no actual leaders.

Vladimir Lenin led the October Revolution as leader of the Bolshevik party. However, the Red Army (anti-Tsar) contained other political factions, as well. But after the victory of the Red Army, Lenin cleverly outmaneuvered the other factions and his Bolsheviks took complete control of the country. .

The October revolution of 1917 followed on that year's February Revolution . In February, the revolution had led to the abdication of the Russian Tsar and to a Republic in which 'moderate' republican groups were the dominant parties. In October, the Communists - who had only been a minor force until then - profited from the fact that the new Russian Government had continued to fight the Germans, which led to continued economic chaos and growing unrest among the Russian army and Navy. The promise to get them out of the war got the army and Navy to side with the Communist, who then had no trouble overthrowing the existing Russian Government. The October Revolution then lead to Russia becoming a Communist State for well over the next 70 years.
