What is Bolshevik Revolution?
October Revolution is also known as Bolshevik Revolution, which was the second and last major phase of the Russian revolution of 1917, where the Bolshevik Party seized the power in Russia, inaugurating the Soviet regime. The increasing governmental corruption, the reactionary policies of Tsar Nicolas II, as well the catastrophic Russian losses in World War I, did contribute to the widespread dissatisfaction and economic hardships.
What Changed After October?
Numerous changes were brought in by the Bolsheviks immediately after the October Revolution. The most important ones included, banks and industries that came to be nationalized; the land was declared as social property, thereby allowing peasants to seize the property from the nobility. In the urban areas, houses were partitioned according to the requirements of the family. Also, old aristocratic titles were banned and new uniforms were designed for the army and officials.
