What was the impact of the bolshevik revolution on the War and Peace how did the allies respond to the Bolsheviks who came to power in Russia in october 1917?
From what I remember, when the Bolsheviks took power in October, 1917, they immediately began peace-talks with Germany. The Russian people had incurred significant losses and the Tsar himself had become the avatar of the Russian war effort when he took charge of the Russian Armed Forces in 1915-16. The Germans demanded enormous concessions and in March, 1918, the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk was signed, ending Russian participation in World War I. The allies responded by aligning themselves with pro-Tsarist forces and even other, less extreme communist forces (Mensheviks aka "Whites"). This Russian Civil War lasted until about 1920, when the Red Army defeated its internal enemies and drove off aggressive Allied forces. The Allies intervention proved to the Bolshevik Party that their revolution would not survive unless they sparked revolution in advanced capitalist countries.

How did the Russian Revolution influence the war?
The February Revolution in 1917 did not affect it at all, because the new Provisional Government kept it going just as the Tsar had done. The October Revolution eventually ended Russia's participation in the war when Lenin entered into the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk with Germany. After that, Germany moved the military forces that were fighting the Russians over to fight the French and English on the western front. That increase in military force could have won the war for the Central Powers but then the United States entered the war and added its forces to the Allies.
Why were the allies worried about the Bolsheviks revolution?
Because it would weaken the war effort against Germany They feared Russia would pull out of the war. The Allies were worried about the Bolshevik Revolution for several reasons. First, the Allies feared it would take Russia out of World War 1 and allow Germany to move all the military forces it was using to fight Russia to fight France and England instead. This would make Germany harder to defeat in the war. Second, they feared that the revolution might spread to their own countries as well. Even Germany feared that the Bolshevik Revolution could spread to its own people. The Bolsheviks were determined to spread the communist revolution to all countries and did their best to do so even to the United States.
