To social inequality, the economic crisis and the violence of the Tsarist soldiers was added the outbreak of the First World War (1914). The numerous defeats of the Russian army caused many to listen to the call of the Bolsheviks and Mensheviks to overthrow the Tsar. In February 1917 that call was made concrete, when Nicolás II abdicated (Very History).

Eight months after the abdication, the Bolsheviks seized power and guarded the Romanov family, until July 1918, when they assassinated all its members (National Geographic).

But the arrival of the Bolsheviks to power is further explained by the anachronism of the political regime, the social inequality, economic crisis and violence by soldiers to the lower classes of Russia's those years.

Trotsky and Lenin were two of the figures who knew how to fill the power vacuum that was generated with the abdication of Nicholas II.
