Summary

The Russian Revolution in 1917 was a moment in time when the will of the people put an end to a system of government that had been in place for centuries. The story of Russia’s transition from Imperial reign to eventual Communist dictatorship is a tale rooted in the ranks of the common people and the men who rose to lead them. 

You will learn about:

  • Czarist rule
  • Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels
  • Nicholas Romanov
  • Rasputin
  • World war
  • Lenin
  • October Revolution
  • Stalin
  • And much more!

Dedication to the ideals of socialism remade Russian society. Worker’s rights, human equality, world war, murder, mysticism, blood, and tyranny collide in the heart of Russia to irrevocably alter the culture of this great nation and the world.
