| | SOVIET (COUNCIL) FACTS AND INFORMATION |
 | | Russian Marxists made them a medium for organizing against the state, and between the February and October_Revolutions, the Petrograd_Soviet was a powerful force. |
 | | The term also came to be used outside the Soviet Union by some Marxist-Leninist movements, for example, the Chinese_Communist_Party's efforts in the "Chinese_Soviet_Republic" immediately prior to the Long_March. |
 | | In this sense, post-Kerensky government bodies at local and republic levels (but in the Russian federated republic, local, republic, and federated republic levels) were called "soviets", and at the top of the hierarchy, the Supreme_Soviet was the nominal core of the Union government of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, officially formed in December 1922. |
