:Communism took place in Russia around the time of World War One, in 1917. The revolution was inspired by the ideas of Marxism aiming to replace capitalism with communism. Vladimir Lenin also took part in the revolution he brought about Leninism which argues that a communist revolution must be led by a vanguard of professional revolutionaries, which is men and women who are fully dedicated to the communist cause and who can then form the nucleus of the revolutionary movement.

:The “Communist Revolution” occurred in 1917 in [[Russia]]. It was a ''coup d’état'' of the Russian government by the Bolshevik party (a small, radical Communist group; “Bolshevik” means “majority” in Russian, and Bolshevik leaders gave their party that name deceptively, as it was relatively small compared to the larger, less radical Menshevik party.)

:M1918 Browning Automatic Rifle wasn't used much because there was fear of it being stolen by the Central Powers. The M1917 Browning machine gun and Lewis Gun were larger guns that needed to be shot from a mount. The Chauchat was a french piece of junk (no two guns were the same). The M1903 Springfield rifle was used a lot. (Aran)

:World War I introduced many new military tactics and devices, such as barbed wire, used to defend trenches (makeshift wire was sometimes made by stringing old razor blades on a normal piece of wire), and the machine gun, which had seen slight use in the Boer War and other contemporary conflicts. Machine guns were deadly against charging troops, in one battle, British soldiers who had been ordered to attack “regardless of loss” were repulsed by only several dozen machine guns, with 8,000 casualties. Mines (explosives designed to explode on contact with a person, ship, or vehicle), both naval and land, also entered general use; in fact, in November 1914, the British super-dreadnought (dreadnoughts were a type of battleship) ''Audacious'' was sunk by a mine.
