i was able to answer all of them except question #3.

The bourgeoise were the wealthy class of Russa which essentially bullied the proletariats, story of rich vs poor in almost all societies. The difference is the proletariats did something about it, forming their own political party.

1. An explanation of their topic and relationship that it has to Russia in the early 20th Century.

The proletariats really only wanted a utopian society. This, of course, is contrary to human nature, as their society was based totally on complete lack of human greed. They wanted everyone to have everything they needed and be the same so that the bourgeoise could no longer bully the proletariats. Basically Russia was 'no big woof' before the proletariats came around. They were just the big losers that nobody paid much attention to. Once the communists came around and started spreading, people stood up and took notice of them.

with this info could anyone somehow help me answer 3#

Answer 1

In the early 20th century there were 4 greatest sources of tension in Russia
1. the problem of proletariat
2. the problem of the land - peasants didn't own any peace of land
3. the need of quick industrialisation
4. monarchy - Russian czar Nikolai held all the power to rule the country
Proletariat are the people who worked at the factories in the early 20th century in Russia. They were workers. They had to work real hard and got little money. They didn't want utopia - never! Simply wanted the working day to be 8-9 hours instead of 12-14. Proletariat was one of the two poorest classes in Russia by that time. They lived in lived bad conditions and nearly starved. It was because bourgeois, the owners of the factories didn't pay enough to their employees.
All these problems stayed unsolved, although several attempts to solve them were made by Stolypin and Vitte (minister of finances). All in vain.. The first, the second, the third and the fourth Dumas (russian parliament) didn't resolve the problems
It lead to a crisis which was followed by the revolution.
Important dates
1905-1907 the first revolution
1917- february revolution -the end of Russian Monarchy
1917- the famous October Revolution - Bolsheviks with their leader Lenin came to power. Lenin declared that the Proletariat would rule the country. But actually it was he who got all the power.
Why is it so important? The answer is evident. 1917 determined the future of Russia and Russian people for 75 years to come... It was the beginning of the nightmare that lasted throughout the 20th century in Russia.
For more info head to Wikipedia. Try to look for Lenin, October Revolution, 1917, Bolshevism.
You can also email me (on [e-mail] )and I'll do my best to explain.
Good luck!

Answer 2

As you've found, this is a HUGE subject and difficult to research because of that.
A good place to start is the Russian Revolution and the overthrowing of the Czar. This was the start of communist/socialist rule with Stalin, Lenin, Krushev and the Cold War in the 60's with JOhn F. Kennedy.

I hope that gave you a start. I'll check back to see if you need any more info.

Good luck!

EDIT:
You answered number 3 with your own details.
Your teacher wants to know that YOU know who each class is and what they did, what they were responsible for.

Answer 3

Marxist-communism in Russia or the Soviet Union change into an utter failure. it began with the " purple October" revolution which pronounced over 20,000,000 Russians perish interior of a 5 year span. contained in the 1920's, Lenin died as via the a stroke, i have self belief. Stalin grew to change into the chief of the country and stepped forward a sense of Stalinism. the country grew to respect him. by his 'cult of personality' human beings were brainswashed into adoring him and his authorities's regulations. He created 4-year plans, and 5 year plans, all proceeded in route of socializing the commercial equipment, drugs, agriculture and industries. the employees were paid low wages for his or her paintings efforts. Stalin change right into a totalitarian socialist. His authorities change into responsible for the 1930's famine which pronounced over 5,000,000 Ukrainian Christians perish. His authorities change into responsible for murdering the Tsarist monarchy- which change into allied with us of a- in the previous wall highway determined to fund Lenin,Trotsky, Stalin and Hitler. The purple military tried to damage the white military- which they effectively did contained in the 1920's. They murdered white Russians. They murdered white human beings. a lot of this authorities change into in reality managed with assistance from Jewish Bolsheviks and Russian Bolsheviks. international war II pronounced Russia aggressively invade Poland even as allied with Hitler. They managed the land after 1945 and managed *** Germany. They managed the Ukraine, Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania, Belarus, and so fourth. with assistance from the mid 1980's the Soviet economic equipment change into collapsing so Gorbachev, the Soviet chief exceeded decrease back democracy to Russia. Marxism continuously fails. On yet another be conscious, throughout WWII, the purple military murdered many Germans and were responsible for the deaths of a minimum of 8 million of them. They set up the 'Berlin wall' and entrapped the German human beings from East and West Germany after the war.
