Which important document was adopted during the Russian Revolution of 1917?

The Decree on Peace

The Decree on Peace, adopted shortly after the October Revolution in 1917, reflects the Bolsheviks' commitment to the immediate cessation of Russia's participation in World War I. This document, proposed by Lenin, called for peace "without annexations or indemnities," a revolutionary idea at a time when peace treaties were often used to redistribute conquered territories. The adoption of this decree not only marked a turning point in Russian history by withdrawing it from one of the most devastating conflicts in history but also signaled the beginning of a series of radical reforms that would transform the country into the Soviet Union.
