In te February Revolution of 1917, the people of the city of Petrograd (St. Petersburg) spontaneously broke out into demonstrations against shortages of food. They were then joined by workers and soldiers who also had complaints about their conditions. These revolts spread to ther cities as well until Tsar Nicholas II became convinced he no longer had the power to restore order and that only his abdication would stop the revolt.

In the October Revolution, Vladimir Lenin and his Bolshevik followers were the ones who revolted against the Provisional Government then in place. This revolution was more of a military coup by a small group of revolutionaries rather than the popular revolt the February Revolution had been.
