In 1917 the rule of the Tsars came to an end in Russia. With the Bolsheviks coming to power there, Finland became tensed. The middle class apprehended the fear of socialist rule while the workers of Finland took this opportunity to break out into a general strike on 14th November 1917. It was so successful that within two days they gained control of nearly most of the country.
