For the Russian Revolution:

This is a basic, detailed narrative account.

My website will give you all you need to know up to GCSE level,
and the HistoryLearning site will take you up to A-level level.

To go deeper still, either follow the links on the pages on my website, or why not google
Russian revolution
and follow the links.


As for similarities between the Russian and the French Revolutions, this yahoo answer is a really good essay which will give you some ideas.

You might like also to see if you can see any similarities between their courses.
  • Most revolutions start with poverty and with oppression (a tyrannical regime).
  • They need the government to be weak/weakened
  • They are usually provoked by some event which is the 'last straw'
  • They start with a middle-class rebellion - people wanting reasonable, small-scale reforms.
  • But once the authority of the regime has been broken they rapidly descend into chaos and the extremists take over.
  • This is then followed by a time of Terror.
  • And eventually the thing goes round full circle and a dictator takes over power.

See if you cam fit the French and Russian Revolutions into this model.
