In this Class 9 History topic from “Socialism in Europe and the Russian Revolution,” students examine the major changes introduced after the October Revolution of 1917.

The topic also introduces the challenges of civil war, opposition, and the formation of the Soviet Union, helping students understand the revolution’s wider impact.
