The Russian Revolution


The Czar was not treating everyone fairly and many were starving. When Russia went into WWI, it showed how weak the Czar's military was. Soldiers were dieing by mass numbers each day and they soon they started to just ignore their generals and walk home. This was the start of the Revolution. More and more people started abandoning the battlefields and joined the fight for Communism. Communism appealed to many people because there would no longer be a ruler such as the Czar again, instead the workers would control the government and everything would be shared among everyone equally no matter what your job is. This means that there will be no middle class or upper class, there will just be one class where everyone gets the same money and property. A civil war between communist and non-communist was formed. The communist won the war and took over the Russian government. The communist succeeded in creating a communist country.

You don't know really nothing about the revolution... seems you went to a private school or you are too lazy for reading a book.
The process of rev, its much more complicated, and before communism there are a lot of movements, political parties, leaders, wars and stuff...
By the way... all what you said about the military is bullshit, generals couldnt walk away!!!!!! What is that???? We're talking about the Czar!
Anyway, read sometime a book, a history book, look back into revolution with perspective, and stop learning stupid concepts about communism.
