Explanation:

The Bolsheviks opposed the war and after coming to power in the 1917 Russian Revolution, they sought to withdraw Russia from World War I. The Petrograd Soviet was already part of the pre - revolution situation and Russia was already on the Allied side. The revolution did not expand Russia's borders or lead to seeking help from allies to fight protestors in the context of its role in the war.

Answer:

D. The Bolshevik Party rose to power partly because of its fierce antiwar activism.
