Karl Marx- He was the father of the cominism, and the Russian Revolution was a comunist revolution.
Lenin- He was a Russian revolutionary, a communist politician, the main leader of the October Revolution, and the first head of the Soviet Union between 1918 to 1924.
Leon Trotsky- He was a Ukrainian-born Bolshevik revolutionary and Marxist theorist. He was an influential politician in the early days of the Soviet Union, first as People's Commissar for Foreign Affairs and later as the founder and commander of the Red Army and People's Commissar of War. Following a power struggle with Joseph Stalin in the 1920s, Trotsky was expelled from the Communist Party and deported from the Soviet Union. He was eventually assassinated in Mexico by Ramón Mercader, a Soviet agent.
