What was the outcome of the Bolshevik takeover under Levin?

The outcome of the Bolshevik takeover under Levin, often referred to in historical context as part of the events surrounding the Russian Revolution, was the significant overthrow of the Russian monarchy. In March 1917, public discontent and unrest led to the abdication of Tsar Nicholas II, marking the end of centuries of Romanov rule. The Bolsheviks, a faction of the Marxist Russian Social Democratic Labour Party, initially gained prominence in the aftermath of this event.

The overthrow was not solely the work of the Bolsheviks but catalyzed by wider societal upheavals, including dissatisfaction with World War I, economic strife, and demands for reform. Following this abdication, the Provisional Government was established but was met with opposition from various groups, including the Bolsheviks themselves, who later led a more radical second phase of the revolution in October 1917. Thus, the outcome directly applicable to the takeover is the significant political shift marked by the dismantling of the monarchy in March 1917.
