The October Revolution was the second of the two Russian Revolutions in 1917. The October Revolution, also called the Bolshevik Revolution, is when Vladimir Lenin and his Bolshevik followers took control of the Russian government from the Russian Provisional Government headed by Alexander Kerensky. It put he Bolsheviks, later called Communists, in charge of Russia.
Vladimir Lenin's October Revolution was not a revolution of the people. It was an armed insurrection or military coup by the Bolshevik Party alone. It did not remove Tsar Nicholas II from the throne. That had already been done in March of 1917.
