The Formation of the Soviet Union
By 1915, the situation for the people of Russia was dire. Food was scarce, fuel was running out, and thousands upon thousands of people were dying at an incredible rate.
On March 3, 1917, a famous strike in a factory took place in Petrograd, one that started a slew of strikes. Five days later, thousands of women textile workers in the same city went on strike and protested about the lack of food. A few days following the event, the majority of workers were on strike.
The Bolsheviks rose and overcame the opposition, and by 1921, were the prominent political party and ruled Russia. By 1922, Vladimir Lenin had successfully formed the Soviet Union, although the region was still in economic turmoil.
