The slogan "Peace, Land and Bread" is associated with which of the following ?

Question

Accepted Answer

The correct option is 3:

The slogan "Peace, Land, and Bread" is indelibly associated with the **Russian Revolution** of 1917, specifically with the Bolshevik Party led by Vladimir Lenin. This simple yet powerful tripartite slogan perfectly encapsulated the most urgent demands of the Russian masses, who had been suffering immensely under the Tsarist and then the Provisional Government. "Peace" referred to the immediate withdrawal of Russia from the devastating and unpopular World War I. "Land" addressed the long-standing desire of the peasant majority to seize and redistribute the large estates of the nobles. "Bread" spoke to the desperation of the working class and urban populations facing acute food shortages and widespread famine. By promising to deliver these three fundamental necessities immediately, the Bolsheviks garnered overwhelming support, enabling them to overthrow the Provisional Government in the October Revolution and establish the world’s first communist state.

The incorrect option is 1:
The French Revolution (1789) is primarily associated with the slogan "Liberty, Equality, Fraternity." While the French Revolution addressed issues of hunger (Bread) and land reform, its core ideological focus was on political rights, social hierarchy, and the dismantling of the Ancien Régime, captured by its famous triad.

The incorrect option is 2:
The American Revolution (1775–1783) was centered on political independence and self-governance, famously summarized by the rallying cry "No taxation without representation." Its primary concerns were political sovereignty and colonial rights against the British Crown, not the immediate resolution of war, land redistribution, or food shortages as a foundational ideological demand.

The incorrect option is 4:
The Communist Revolution of China (1927–1949) had distinct mottos reflective of its agricultural base, such as "Serve the People," and focused heavily on peasant liberation and national unification under Mao Zedong. While it certainly sought land redistribution, the unique combination of "Peace, Land, and Bread" was not its primary or defining revolutionary slogan.
