The Russian revolution is typically seen as being carried out by the Bolshevik party, though it was, in essence, a movement brought about by the Russian workers and merely sparked and aided by the Bolsheviks.
The man typically seen as the leader of the Bolsheviks is known as Vladimir Lenin, but his next-in-command Leon Trotsky was the leader of the Petrograd Soviet (socialist union of workers in the capital city of Petrograd) at the time of the revolution.
The common aims of Lenin, Trotsky, and the whole of the Bolshevik party was to overthrow the opressive Tsar (Basically a king), take from the rich, give to the poor, and (in the distant future) have a world without nations, hate, greed, opression, classes, or property.
Stalin stole power from Trotsky after Lenin died of a stroke and un-did most of the progress that Lenin made towards the Communist goal.
