The Cheka were established after the Revolution and were formed after the Bolsheviks declared the Red Terror in response to the White Terror. The Cheka were a sort of political police who would investigate the activities of suspected Tsarist supporters and fighters and arrest them and possibly execute them if they were found to indeed be Tsarist fighters or supporters. It is important to bear in mind that the supporters did not just think the Tsarists were good but they helped them in their war efforts against the Bolsheviks.

Russia did not become the Soviet Union in 1918. After the Bolshevik takeover, Russia became the "Russian Soviet Federal Socialist Republic." (RSFSR) After the Russian Civil War, the RSFSR signed the Soviet Union Treaty with Ukraine, Belorussia and the Transcaucasus Federation (Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan). The treaty was ratified in 1924 and the name was changed to the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR).

In 1918, differences included the overthrow of the Tsarist rule, the establishment of the Communist government, the abolition of private ownership of property, nationalization of factories, banks and other businesses and the onset of the Russian Civil War. Not much changed for the workers and peasants as they were still oppressed and exploited. The Communist secret police were every bit as cruel as had been the Tsarist secret police. Dissent was still not permitted. The economy of the country even worsened from what it had been under the Tsarist government.
