Answer:
1917
The Bolsheviks considered the Russian Revolution as only the “first stage” of the revolution because the Russian Revolution marked the beginning of the struggle between communist nations and the capitalist world..
The backing by the church and the nobles made the Czar “Autocrat of All the Russians.
Formed to unite the various revolutionary organizations of the Russian Empire into one party in 1898, the RSDLP later split into Bolsheviks (majority) and Mensheviks (minority) factions, with the Bolshevik faction eventually becoming the Communist Party of the Soviet Union.
Soviets were political organizations and governmental bodies of the late Russian Empire, primarily associated with the Russian Revolution, which gave the name to the latter states of the Soviet Russia and the Soviet Union. Soviets were created by Bolsheviks, Mensheviks, Anarchists and Libertarians.
These demands were:
End to the war,
Transfer of Land to the peasants,
Nationalisation of Banks
