The correct option is C Lenin
Vladimir Lenin and his Bolshevik Party led the Russian revolution of 1917. The Bolshevik party took total control of the government, and introduced a new form ofabsolutism. The Bolsheviks, who came to be known as the Communists, renamed the country from The Russian. Empire to the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR). (Since the collapse of the USSR in 1991, the remaining "republics" of the country called themselves the Russian Federation.)
