The communists, led by the Bolshevik Party under Vladimir Lenin, gained power in Russia through a combination of political strategy and popular discontent. The October Revolution of 1917 was pivotal, as the Bolsheviks capitalized on widespread dissatisfaction with the Provisional Government, which had failed to address issues like land reform and continued involvement in World War I.
