This Russian Revolution timeline worksheet is awesome because it really helps to place Lenin and the events of 1917 into an historical framework. On one easy-to-follow handout, students see Vladimir I bringing Christianity to Russia in 988, and another Vladimir, who believed (like Marx) religion to be the opiate of the masses, bringing the Bolsheviks to power in 1917. |
