Lenin and the Bolsheviks managed to seize and hold power through a combination of strategic timing, effective Propaganda, and the exploitation of social discontent. Their decisive action during the October Revolution of 1917 capitalized on the weaknesses of the Provisional Government, which had lost public support due to ongoing war and economic turmoil. Additionally, the Bolsheviks promised land, peace, and bread, appealing to the needs of workers and peasants, which garnered them widespread popular support. Once in power, they employed tactics such as the Red Army's military strength and the suppression of opposition to maintain control.
