a) Identify factors that led to the Russian Revolution (1917).
The October Revolution in Russia in 1917 signified the collapse of Tsarist Russia and the establishment of a regime by the Bolsheviks and the leader of the Communist Party, Lenin.

While there is no definite cause for the Mexican Revolution, there were many factors that led to the decision to rebel against the government.
