Russian Revolution
1917
Czar Nicholas II
     !   Last Czar of Russia

     !   Exhausted nation’s economy by
        involving Russia in WWI
        !   This left the Russian people
            poor and starving, but the
            Czar and his family lived
            comfortably.
        !   The people were angry with
            this, so they decided to
            REVOLT!
Karl Marx
(1818 – 1883)
    • He died long before
    Revolution began, but his
    political ideas of communism
    lived on.
    • Considered father of
    communism
    • People of Russia who
    revolted adopted his ideas
Karl Marx
!  Karl Marx - 1848 published
   the Communist Manifesto with
   Fredrich Engels

!  This document advertised
   Marx’s belief that pure
   communism would be the
   inevitable outcome of human
   history

!  “From each according to his
   abilities, to each according to
   his need.”
Communism
• Form of government
that has a classless
society
• Everyone is equal; no
rich and no poor
• The Bolsheviks, or
revolutionaries, adopted
this idea.

revolting people, or revolutionaries, of Russia.
• Bolsheviks were led by Vladimir Lenin.

    Bolsheviks (working class) to
    freedom.
    • They eventually were able to
    overthrow the Czar.
Czar is Overthrown…



• With the rise of the Bolsheviks, the Czar was forced to give
up thrown
• In 1918, the Czar and his entire family, wife and 5 children,
were assassinated by an execution squad set up by the
revolutionaries
• The entire family was killed because they feared one of them
could rise to power again.
Lenin’s Death
• Lenin died in 1924,
leaving the Bolsheviks
leaderless.
• This caused a power
struggle between two other
revolutionaries, Leon
Trotsky and Joseph Stalin.

     popular with the people
     • Wanted to make life better
     for all by industrializing
     Russia
Josef Stalin
• Lied to people to gain
support
• People believed his lies
and promises, so he beat
Trotsky in the power
struggle
• Stalin had Trotsky exiled
from Russia. He feared
Trotsky would try to regain
power, so he eventually
had him killed.
Stalin, cont’d…
     • Stalin grew more and more
     powerful over the years.
     • He began eliminating
     anyone who opposed him.
     • He set up a secret police to
     carry out his deadly orders.
NKVD (KGB)

• Stalin’s secret police
• Killed, tortured, starved,
intimidated anyone Stalin
ordered

Totalitarianism

     governments and their
           leaders

!  Soviet Union - Joseph Stalin
!  Italy - (Facist) Benito Mussolini
!  Spain - Gen. Francisco Franco
Propaganda
-Propaganda: is a form of communication
that is aimed at influencing the attitude of a
community toward some cause or position.

-Stalin used this to keep his image in the
public eye positive

-He had a bureau dedicated to coming up
with new propaganda on a regular basis
creating pictures, statues, continuous praise
and applause for him.
Stalin’s Rule
• Stalin became so greedy, he
lost the original vision of the
revolutionaries
• Millions of innocent people
were killed under his rule
• Ironically, he made Russia
worse off than it had been
before the Czar
• Stalin became known as
one of the most ruthless
dictators in history,
comparable to Hitler
Animal Farm was an attack on
           Stalin
