The Russian Social Democratic Labour Party (Mensheviks),[a] later renamed the Russian Social Democratic Labour Party (United),[b] was a political party in Russia.
It emerged in 1912 as the Russian Social Democratic Labour Party was divided into two, the other group being the Russian Social Democratic Labour Party (Bolsheviks).
However, the Mensheviks and Bolsheviks had existed as factions of the original party since 1903.[1]
