There were two revolutions in Russia in 1917. Depending on which calendar is used, the first one in March of 1917 forced the Tsar to step down. A provisional democratic government was installed. It included democratic socialists, the Mensheviks. The idea was, however, to continue with the war against Germany. In October/November...the Bolshevik revolution unseated the provisional government. As per the agreement Lenin made with Germany, Lenin managed to sign the Brest-Litovsk Treaty. The treaty was a harsh one for Russia. Most of the Bolsheviks were against it. Reportedly this was the deal that helped Lenin, through the process of returning to Russia. ( reportedly ) Only Lenin's commanding position in the Party let him hold sway and he signed the treaty, this ended the Russian part of WW 1.
