45. A welfare state is a "concept of government in which the state plays a key role in the protection
and promotion of the economic and social well-being of its citizens. It is based on the principles of equality of opportunity, equitable distribution of wealth, and public responsibility for those unable to avail themselves of the minimal provisions for a good life. The general term may cover a variety of forms of economic and social organization."[1] The welfare state involves a transfer of funds from the state, to the services provided (i.e. healthcare, education) as well as directly to individuals ("benefits"). The welfare state is funded through redistributionist taxation and is often referred to as a type of "mixed economy".[3]

46. 6514654 47. Russia pulled out of World War 1 because Lenin and the Bolsheviks had promised that they
would end Russia's involvement in the war. The Russian army could not match up to the German army and defeat was inevitable. Politically, Lenin had to end the war because he had promised it to the country and if he did not deliver on that promise he faced his own overthrow. The only way he could keep the soldiers and peasants at least neutral in the political fighting was to assure them the war would be over. Lenin tried to drag the peace negotiations out hoping Germany would surrender, but it didn't. Germany caught on, called off the talks and resumed hostilities. Lenin had to make a hasty retreat and sign a quick peace treaty or Germany would have conquered Russia militarily and replaced the Bolshevik government. Russia's involvement in the war with Germany ended on March 3, 1918 with the signing of the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk. The Tsar was murdered on July 17, 1918, three months after the war ended for Russia
