The soviets remained in place after the Tsar abdicated to make sure the new Provisional Government did the right thing. All soviets were later abolished by Vladimir Lenin after the Bolshevik Revolution.

Was the March Revolution Marxist?
No, it wasn't, because a true Marxist Revolution would have been where a proletariat of workers in an industrialized country seized the means of production from their owners, establish a socialist system then create a government to keep it that way. In Russia at that time there was no true Marxian proletariat because Russia was not industrialized. The March Revolution began by peasants and workers demonstrating against the Tsarist government, causing it to topple then simply imposing another government (the Provisional Government) in place of the Tsar's. No means of production were seized; no workers became empowered and the means of production remained in the hands of their owners. That is not what Marx had in mind.

The Bolshevik Revolution lead to communism in what country?
The Bolshevik Revolution, also known as the October Revolution of 1917, took place mainly in Petrograd, Russia, but it occurred in many other larger cities as well. Petrograd had been known as St. Petersburg but the name during WWI. St. Petersburg had been the Tsarist capital city of Russia and remained the capital under the Provisional Government set up when the Tsar abdicated after the February Revolution of 1917. When the Provisional Government in Petrograd proved to be no better than Tsarist rule, the people refused to support it. Lenin and the Bolsheviks simply stepped in and took power from the main governing body in Petrograd and announced that governmental power was now vested in the workers' councils (called Soviets) that had formed in the larger cities.
