The tsars of Russia traditionally used religion, particularly the Russian Orthodox Church, as a means to legitimize their rule and reinforce their authority, viewing themselves as divinely appointed leaders. In contrast, the Bolsheviks, after the 1917 Revolution, sought to diminish the influence of religion by promoting Atheism and state secularism, perceiving religion as a tool of oppression and a remnant of the old regime. While the tsars embraced and supported religious institutions, the Bolsheviks actively suppressed them, promoting a materialist worldview and replacing religious authority with state ideology.
