The Bolshevik   Revolution ended years of tyrannical rule by the Czars. The Bolsheviks, however, were communists and replaced the tyranny of the Czars with their on murderous thugs like Stalin and Kreushev.

This is beyond the scope of a simple answer, but there were two revolutions, the first in February of 1917 in which tsar Nicholas was overthrown and a Provisional government set up under Kerensky, and a second revolution in October, (or November, depending on which calendar you use) when the Bolsheviks overthrew the provisional goverment and established the Soviet state.  Following this was the civil war in which the forces of the Red and White armies fought for control.  The Bolsheviks were holding Nicolas and his family and entourage in a house requisitioned from an engineer, Nicholas Ipatev, in Ekaterinburg, and in July, 1918 when White forces threatened to take the town, the Imperial family was ushered to the basement and shot, their bodies carried in a truck into a forest and dumped first into a mine shaft and then reburied in a shallow grave.\n\nThere are quite a number of books on this subject, and the matter is far too complex and detailed to permit any satisfactory discussion here.

He joined Lenin and the Bolsheviks to help organize the communist take over of Russia.  He helped to build the red army for the Russian civil war.  Later, he was sent into exile by Stalin after Lenin died.  \nSome more info here:\nhttp://www.bbc.co.uk/history/historic_figures/trotsky_leon.shtml\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leon_Trotsky

Alexander Kerensky. Hijacked Russian revolution. Set Russia back 80 years. He was a moderate, and would have allowed democracy to develop in a country where democracy had never flourished.

They started off already from very different levels of industrialization and education of the population.\nGermany as one country just started to be (http://www.zum.de/whkmla/region/germany/bismarck.html), Russia was an empire under the Tsar for a long time already.\n\nCheck your history books regarding WW I and the consequences.\nCheck your history books regarding the October Revolution.\n\nRussia lost most of its intelligentsia in the civil disorder following the October Revolution. Germany lost most of its intelligentsia at the end of WW II.\n\nBoth had to rebuild from scratch after WW II. The Soviet Union used material from Germany to kick start their industry after WW II.

The industrialisation of warfare had a great impact on World War I. Your essay should explore:\n\n* use of modern factories to meet the need of the combatants on the field and logistics - one of the reasons Russia dropped out was the failure to meet demands of the troops for example;\n\n* use of railways to transport troops to the front;\n\n* use of modern technology such as aircraft and tanks for the first time - it was their use in an integrated manner by  Allied commanders such as Sir John Monash of Australia that would eventually lead to victory in 1918;\n\n* growing role for Government: Government's share of GDP exceeded 50% in Germany and France and appraoached that in the UK and introduction of higher tax systems such as income tax to finance the war.

The Russian revolution is the fundamental political and social upheaval that erupted in the Russian empire in 1917. The roots of the Russian Revolution are to be sought in the arbitrary, autocratic, and repressive czarist political and social system that evolved in the 16th – 18th century. It began with the collapse of the centuries-old czarist regime in February that led to the overthrow of the Western-style Provisional Government and the establishment of the first national communist political system in October. In the last years before World War 1 there was no reason to believe that revolution was inevitable, much less imminent in Russia. But as military defeats piled up, a progressive block was formed in the Duma (parliament that had limited power). The member of the block strove valiantly to convince the government that it must follow the example of western government to accept the voluntary cooperation of the public in coping with the inordinately difficult problems. The autocracy, jealous of its exclusive authority refused all such offers that would help his government. Rapidly the government lost all shred of public confidence. Under the czars Russia was a backward country, much of the land was in royal and private estate\n\n\n\n\n\nhttp://www.barnsdle.demon.co.uk/russ/rusrev.html

this has some good info, there's even more of you follow the link\n\nCauses and outcomes\n\nWhile complex, it is possible to group the causes of the Holodomor. They have to be understood in the larger context of the social revolution 'from above' that took place in the Soviet Union at the time.\n\nIn the early 1920s, when Soviet Russia needed to win the sympathy of other nations for the newly born communist state, Ukraine enjoyed a short period of revival of its national culture under the policy of Korenizatsiya. This was, however, ended and replaced with the a policy of effective Russification, as soon as the Soviet regime firmly took root, thereby causing significant social, cultural, and political conflict in the Ukrainian populated territories.\n\nSimultaneously, a policy of collectivization of agriculture was introduced. Agriculture in Ukraine was affected more strongly by this than most other agricultural areas, as Ukraine has had a long tradition of individually owned farms, while most farms in Russia, for example, had been communal (not collective) property.\n\nUnexpectedly, from the Bolshevik point of view, Collectivization proved highly unpopular with the rural population. When collectivization was still voluntary, very few peasants joined collective farms. The regime therefore began to increasingly put pressure on peasants to join collective farms, and to speed up the process of collectivization, tens of thousands of officials were sent into the countryside in 1929–1930.\n\nAt the same time, the "Twenty-Five Thousanders", industrial workers, mostly devoted Bolsheviks, were sent to help run the farms. In addition, they were to fight the increasing passive and active resistance to collectivisation by engaging in what was euphemistically referred to as "dekulakization": the arresting of 'kulaks' — allegedly well to do farmers who opposed the regime and withheld grain — and sending whole 'kulak' families into concentration camps and Siberia. In fact, most of the so-called 'kulaks' were no more well off than other peasants. Effectively, the term 'kulak' was applied to anybody resisting collectivization. It is estimated that around 2 million[citation needed] Ukrainians became victims of these repressions in 1929-1932.\n\nCollectivization proved to negatively affect agricultural output everywhere, but since Ukraine was the most productive area (over 50% of Imperial Russian wheat originated from Ukraine in the beginning of 20th century), the effects here were particularly dramatic.\n\n \nPassers-by no longer pay attention to the corpses of starved peasants on a street in Kharkiv, 1933.Despite the decrease in agricultural output, Soviet authorities soon drastically increased Ukraine's crop production quotas (by 44% in 1932). The targets were unrealistic and many historians believe that this was intentional. On August 7, 1932, the Moscow government imposed death penalty in Ukraine for any theft of public property [7] [8] [9]. The scope of this law was very wide, and included even the smallest appropriation of grain by peasants for personal use. As a result, hundreds of peasants were executed each month under the new law. Still, until October 25, Moscow received only 39% of the demanded grain supplies. When it became clear that the 1932 grain deliveries were not going to meet the expectations of the government, the decreased agricultural output was blamed on the "kulaks", "nationalists", and "Petluravites".\n\nA special commission headed by Vyacheslav Molotov was sent to Ukraine in order to execute the grain contingent.[10] On November 9, a secret decree urged Bolshevik police and repression forces to increase their "effectiveness". Molotov also ordered that if no grain remained in Ukrainian villages, all beets, potatoes, vegetables and any other food were to be confiscated. On December 6, a new regulation was issu

Just spreading the ideas of Karl Marx. Not sure what the speech was about but Stalin was not a political thinker, just a drunk with an army.\n\nI assume the speech was about the Communist take over of the US. Marx wrote that a revolution would one day replace Capitalism and its economic inequality with a system of total economic equality.
