Russia entered World War Iin August 1914 in support of the Serbs and their French and British allies. Militarily, imperial Russia was no match for modern, industrialized Germany. Russian participation in the war was disastrous: Russian casualties were greater than those sustained by any other nation, and food and fuel shortages soon plagued the vas...
When Lenin returned home to Russia in April 1917, the Russian Revolution was already beginning. Strikes over food shortages in March had forced the abdication of the inept Czar Nicholas II, ending centuries of imperial rule. Russia came under the command of a Provisional Government, which opposed violent social reform and continued Russian involvem...
The Bolshevik Revolution plunged Russia into a three-year civil war.

Soon after the Bolshevik Revolution, Lenin established the Cheka, Russia’s first secret police. As the economy deteriorated during the Russian Civil War, Lenin used the Cheka to silence political opposition, both from his opponents and challengers within his own political party. But these measures did not go unchallenged: Fanya Kaplan, a member of ...

By some estimates, the Cheka may have executed as many as 100,000 so-called “class enemies” during the...

In 1922, a treaty between Russia, Ukraine, Belarus and the Transcaucasus (now Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan) formed the Union of Soviet Republics (U.S.S.R.). Lenin became the first head of the U.S.S.R., but by that time, his health was declining. Between 1922 and his death in 1924, Lenin suffere...
Lenin died on January 21, 1924, in Gorki Leninskiye near Moscow. He was 53 years old. By that time, Stalin had already come to power—power he would do anything to keep, as evidenced by the Great Purgeof 1936-38. About a million people braved the cold Russian winter to stand in line for hours before paying their respects to Lenin, who was lying in s...
