What did the bolsheviks promise the peasants in 1917
olga_2 [115]
 <span>Lenin did keep most of the promises that he made before the October Revolution: 

The most obvious promise he made was for "Bread, Land and Peace". 

Bread for the hungry in the cities - people were starving because so many peasants were in the army and the food supply infrastructure broke down. The policy brought in to feed the cities as the Civil War began - War Communism - successfully kept the cities fed. 

Land - the peasants wanted to own the land on which they had worked for generations and not to pay the landlords (mostly the aristocracy) to work on it. Lenin's land reforms gave the peasants the land 

And peace - Russia had fared very badly in WWI and many people wanted Russia to withdraw. The Treaty of Brest-Litovsk brought an end to WWI for Russia. Although anti-Bolshevik forces began the Civil War which would last for another six years, so he failed on this promise. 

He also promised "All power to the soviets". Soviets had been springing up across the country since the 1905 Revolution running everything from factories and city blocks to villages and military units. Lenin wanted a Supreme Soviet drawn from all the soviets to govern the country; this promise was kept. 

He also promised elections to the Constituent Assembly. These elections were promised by the Provisional Government but they postponed them until after the war. Lenin wanted them held as soon as possible. In November 1917 the elections were held - the Bolsheviks lost the elections and so they closed it down at gunpoint - claiming the Supreme Soviet as the democratically elected parliament. 
In power he promised electrification - "Communism is socialism plus electricity". And political equality, women's rights, free education and health-care and the right to national self-determination for the minority nationalities. In all of these he kept his promises. 

These promises were applied to all the country, not just in the Russian part. </span>
