The Entire RUSSIAN Revolution Explained in 38 minutes

The Russian Revolution of 1917 changed the course of world history. In this video, we explore how the massive Russian Empire collapsed in just months, beginning with poverty, inequality, political repression, and the failures of Tsar Nicholas II. We follow the 1905 Revolution, Bloody Sunday, Russia’s disastrous experience in World War I, and the bread shortages and strikes that triggered the February Revolution. The fall of the Romanov dynasty created a chaotic period of “dual power,” setting the stage for Lenin and the Bolsheviks to return to Russia with a simple promise: Peace, Land, and Bread. We then follow the October Revolution, the Bolshevik seizure of power, the collapse of Russia's first freely elected parliament, and the creation of the Cheka. The story continues through the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk, the Russian Civil War between the Reds and Whites, the execution of the Romanov family, the Red Terror, famine, and the creation of the Soviet Union (USSR) in 1922. Finally, we see how Lenin's death opened the door for Joseph Stalin, who eliminated his political rivals and transformed the revolution into a dictatorship. From the fall of the Tsars to the rise of communism, discover how the Russian Revolution reshaped Russia and ultimately changed the entire world.
