The October Revolution
The October Revolution (also called the Bolshevik Revolution) overturned the interim provisional government and established the Soviet Union.
The October Revolution was a much more deliberate event, orchestrated by a small group of people. TheBolsheviks, who led this coup, prepared their coup in only six months.
They were generally viewed as an extremist group and had very little popular support when they began serious efforts in April 1917.
By October, the Bolsheviks’ popular base was much larger; though still a minority within the country as a whole, they had built up a majority of support within Petrograd and other urban centers.
After October, the Bolsheviks realized that they could not maintain power in an election-based system without sharing power with other parties and compromising their principles.
As a result, they formally abandoned the democratic process in January 1918 and declared themselves the representatives of a dictatorship of the proletariat.
In response, the Russian Civil War broke out in the summer of that year and would last well into 1920.
