Question 3

Nationalities?

Answer 3

• the brest litosk Treaty in 1918 March literally made many countries independent such as Poland and Ukraine and the Baltic nations and Finland

All of those countries independence and all dominance and free to do whatever their hell they liked

until eventually Russia got them back but it took a minute and some of them got their own government system going around and many of them didn’t come back until World War 2 had started

except for you Ukraine Ukraine was retaken almost immediately it was very important

Question 4

October revolution 1917

economy?

Answer 4

• the bolsheviks solve land question by using the decree on land which meant that all of the peasants could go and take land from the Nobles

this meant that soldiers on the front deserted to make sure they got some land too

• state capitalism became a thing which almost immediately turn into War communism and Grain requisition with out of that turn into the new economic policy to increase the production of goods

• then they made state banks because it’s important for the economy

• in in 1926 they were back to pre-war production levels the same as 1913 at 27.5 Mt

as in 1921 there was a catastrophe due to the failure of state capitalism and the war there were only producing 8.9 million tons of coal which sucks

• in 1926 the factory production value per day was 11,000 R

Now thanks to thanks to state capitalism by 1926 most Industries were completely nationalised

Question 5

Turning Point?

Answer 5

1917 October revolution was the social or political factors due to the decrease rights of the people and the new conflicts with the Civil War but mostly the new socialist ideology

and way of life of the workers and the proletariat who is now technically in charge apparently according to Lenin even though the governments in charge not not the prolettec he was lying

but now we’ve gone from being a pseudo democracy to being a one-party socialist state controlled by the Communist party as well and local soviets and everything’s nationalised and also communism
