The Bolshevik Party had its birth in 1903 at the Russian Social Democratic Labor Party (RSDLP) Congress in Brussels, Belgium. Lenin and his followers disagreed with others in the RSDLP on how membership in the party should be determined. His faction was in the minority but when certain voting members in the Party Congress walked out in protest, Lenin had a temporary one vote majority. He named his faction the Bolsheviks ,meaning majorityites. The Bolsheviks remaining part of the RSDLP until they formally broke away from it several years later.
