THE AFTERMATH OF THE REVOLUTION THAT TOOK PLACE IN THE RUSSIAN EMPIRE IN 1917

The revolution that took place in 1917 in the Russian Empire did not make Russians freer, nor did it free them from exploitation and despotism. As a result of this revolution, the exploitation of the working people did not cease. The former exploiters were replaced by others: high-ranking officials. The level of despotism among those in power increased, and the stability of the Soviet Union became even less secure than that of the Russian Empire. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, the exploitation of the working people intensified, the level of despotism rose even further, and the stability of the Russian Federation declined even more.
