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.
b) Identify factors that led to the Mexican Revolution (1910–17).
Some of the factors that led to the Mexican Revolution were the dictatorship-like way of ruling that Porfirio Diaz exhibited for over 30 years, the exploitation and poor treatment of laborers, and the large disparity between rich and poor. While there is no definite cause for the Mexican Revolution, there were many factors that led to the decision to rebel against the government.

Joseph Stalin is a textbook dictator that was not choosing means in order to strengthen his power and control of the country. Stalin's tactics were mostly consisted of fear, elimination, and imprisonment. In order to avoid and confrontations and strong political opponents, Stalin eliminated pretty much everyone that his people were able to capture and was posing a political threat to him in his eyes. These people were either killed in cold blood, or were taken in the Gulag where they died because of the terrible conditions. Everyone that was going to express an opinion against Stalin or the Communist Party was targeted and was ending up in prison, usually never coming home again. In order to nullify attempts for separatist movements, which was highly possible considering the numerous ethnic groups in the Soviet Union, Stalin was systematically killing, imprisoning, or relocating people of certain ethnic groups in order to break their nation core and identity.
He was an advocate of colonialism, and George Orwell called him a prophet of British imperialism, while still defending him from the attacks of those who declared him a fascist. Kipling is still viewed by many as imperialist and racist. His "Jungle Book", which is part of a compulsory editorial, is considered by many critics to be racist.
Explanation:
- In line with the general beliefs of the time, Kipling believed that people of European heritage had better educational conditions, generally better living conditions, and that since they already knew Christianity, they should spread his message.
- At first glance, it was clear to him that the <em>"tawdry rule of kings", </em>a system in which the natives obey and enslave, does not work. The natives were constantly rebelling and a picture of them as <em>"half devil and half child" </em>was created.
- Yet the fact remains that Europeans thought their value system and way of life were better and should be imposed on unenlightened nations.
