On this day, 7 November 1917, the October Revolution began in Russia, perhaps the most momentous event in world history. Bolsheviks, anarchists and Left-Socialist Revolutionaries participated in the overthrow of the Kerensky-led provisional government, which was committed to continuing Russia’s participation in the disastrous First World War. They seized control of key locations in Petrograd, culminating in the storming of the Winter Palace.
