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. The main reason, among others, was the dissatisfaction of peasants and workers due to large class differences. The dissatisfaction of workers and peasants was preceded by several wars that Russia led and lost all, but the war with Turkey. Peasants barely survived in unreformed economic agricultural conditions. Workers fought for bigger rights in factories, for shortening working hours, but primacy was in waging wars, rather than dealing with economic issues and dissatisfaction of workers and peasants. Also, Emperor Nicholas spent more time dealing with his own family than on state issues. All this led to the general dissatisfaction of the people and the October Revolution.

These policies included economic and social reforms, which according to the last Shah, would lead Iran to become a strong world power. These reforms included the adoption of various Western policies in all political, economic and social sectors in the country. Among the changes we can mention the adoption of western clothes by men, the abandonment of the use of the veil by women, the permission for men and women to be together in any situation, the release of elements of American culture such as films and music, among other factors .
The Iranian population concluded that these policies violated the main concepts defended by Islam, in addition to being an attempt to bring the country closer to Western libertinism. As a result, most of the population was unhappy with the policies established by the Shah.
