Waging Total War
Nations restructured their economies to feed their war efforts. All citizens—women included—had roles
to play in the war-driven economy. The average citizen was also made a target when navies began
forming blockades to stop not only military supplies, but food and ships carrying civilians.

Section 5: Revolution and Civil War in Russia
The November Revolution Brings The Bolsheviks to Power
Lenin promised “Peace, Land, and Bread” to the weary and starving Russian people, while the
provisional government continued with the war effort. In November 1917, factory workers and sailors
overthrew the government, and Lenin’s Bolsheviks took control.
Russia Plunges into Civil war
A war between counter revolutionaries and Communists broke out and lasted three years. The Allies
sent troops to support the counter revolution. The Communists took extreme measures to ensure
success—forcing peasants to produce food for the army and to work in factories, executing
suspects and sending others to labor camps.

pieces. Revolutions are made by those in
power.
