Lenin overthrew the Russian Provision Government headed by Alexander Kerensky. Lenin did not overthrow the Tsar.
The PG had been put in place after Tsar Nicholas II abdicated as a result of the February Revolution of 1917. The PG was supposed to be temporary until the Russian Constituent Assembly could be convened to create a new permanent government. Lenin took advantage of the weakness and unpopularity of the PG and engineered what amounted to a military coup rather than a true revolution to overthrow the Provisional Government in what has been called the October or Bolshevik Revolution of 1917.
