The Soviet Union was officially formed in 1922, a country, a political experiment, an ideal, a great scar across history…
Officially known as the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, the USSR was a one-party state, governed, controlled, and tormented by a single-party rule. That of the Communist Party. No nation has inflicted such destruction on its own population in the name of progress. Power corroded the leadership, leaving the masses to suffer in the name of history. The very people who were supposed to be governing themselves.
There are many factors that affected the Soviet Union’s turbulent history, but the sheer ungovernable vastness of the country was inescapable. It was a nation the size of a continent stretching from Moscow to Vladivostok and from Leningrad to Stalingrad. What we might consider European Russia was dwarfed by the reaches of Siberia. Enacting any kind of policy took force. Complicated, contradictory figureheads would come and go, men, who held this impossible country it seemed by sheer will. Stalin the despot-hero whose cruelty knew few bounds united a nation to defeat Hitler. Khrushchev the crafty libertarian, who preached reform yet allowed an arms race to escalate. Brezhnev, that unreadable member of the old guard, sent history backward. And of course, Gorbachev, who brought vast change, modernization, and détente, yet saw the Soviet Union collapse under his rule - the untenable nation.
Over many painful years, this vast country locked itself away from the rest of the world, paranoid, economically uncertain, and repressive, while still casting a vast shadow across the world. The 20th century was shaped by its convulsions, its purges, its wars, and its leaders.

The 20th century was shaped by its convulsions, its purges, its wars, and its leaders.
Power was the purpose of socialism, specifically the power to make the masses toil and suffer for the enrichment and grandeur of the Bolsheviks. The proletariat was never meant to govern themselves. The Romanovs found the whole of Russia ungovernable through their archaic methods, but the Bolsheviks impose modern socialist methods of coercion, exploitation and terrorism to put an iron grip on the whole of their vast nation. In the process they crushed a young democracy under Kerensky, replacing it with a despotic socialist tyranny that crippled the Russian nation and set their political development back centuries.
The United States, the great rival of the Bolshevik Empire, proved that a vast state could be rule democratically and for the goo of the common people. Instead the Bolshevik Empire, like all socialist regimes, was ruled for the goo of only a hereditary few. The dream for something better prove impossible for the Bolsheviks to kill, even as they starved the democratic soviets in their crib. Ultimately a kleptocracy of thieves became impossible to rule. Thus a great nation that had existed for centuries as a united whole fell to pieces due to Marxist socialist criminality, corruption and stupidity.
power did not corrode the leadership, the leaders were murderous evil heinous people, the power they obtained just allowed them to perpetrate their evil on the population

Brilliant and compelling. Thank you for posting this excellent video. One small note: It was a pleasure and, dare I say, a relief to watch 45+ minutes of documentary without once hearing the (now meaningless) word "iconic."
But they are Iconic!
The Tsar fell ... and then Lenin ? Not one tip of the script to the "February Revolution" or Kerensky or the Bolshevik coup called the October Revolution. That would have burned up a minute or two.
And after Lenin, Stalin just kind of shows up. Very in depth stuff.

Such as?
Putin increasing the budget by 700mil dollar equivalent and the documentary claiming Zero deaths in gulags with the population shocked he denied "brotherly slaughter" happening to russians themselves due to the USSR. Thats my guess
i was thinking the same thing, let Russia tell the story from their perspective
Russians have a lot of differing views about their own history, so you'd need at least three documentaries. Or five. Or one, but with experts fighting each other.
You do know that you have Russians that loved and that hated the USSR.
The thing about Uncle Joe is that you never knew where you stood.
Why didn't you talk about the Romanov family and how they were all brutally murdered including the children?
That seems pretty important.
They were already deposed and irrelevant. Probably wouldn't of made any difference what happened to them in the end.
That information is irrelevant at this point
Why not they were no more important then the rest of the millions whom were murdered. They were the sole reason for the revolution.
They wore angels themselves they wore just as corrupt, and also they wore already gone at this point.
Maybe you should talk about the people they murdered...by your logic we should have forgiven Saddam and his son's and given them honorary American citizenship😂😂😂😂
At 8:20: "Him and Lenin worked out the question of the nationalities," eh?
Are you planning on doing a version of this documentary in English any time soon?

Interesting and informative. Excellent photography job enabling viewers to better understand what/whom the orator was describing. Lenin 😈 was a clever/astute/opportunist whom patiently waited in exile. Upon his return to Moscow's chaotic political situation. Connected with Stalin to finalize the Kremlin revolution. With the assistance of the disillusioned Bolsheviks. Many whom were murdered or imprisoned. After Stalin 😈 had an iron clad communist ideology syndrome over Russia. Lenin was the lesser of two evils being diabolically paranoid Stalin 😈.

Pretty good documentary. But I wish these documentaries would look deeper into Stalin before the revolution outside of the normal things that are said. Before he was Stalin he was called Koba which for those who don't know is because he was the highest ranking member of the Georgian Mafia this is why Stalin never went after the criminal elements of the Vory (Russian Mafia) during his dictatorship. Stalin was basically the equivalent to what westeners would understand as a Mafia Godfather. He robbed banks and used union muscle to call for protests and strikes. Stalin nearly single handedly kept money in the Bolshevik coffers up until the revolution. He lived in lavish places. So when the opportunity to move into real political power outside of criminality he took it. This is how he was able to maneuver around the quote "smarter politicians". Stalin outsmarted them with street smarts and common sense something that the political dreamers and upper class socialists never saw coming. These things are rarely covered sine its the intellectuals that write about Stalin and they see him in exactly the same way his contemporaries saw him which was utterly misguided and wrong. It would be like John Gotti or Al Capone becoming Secretary of State in the USA and everyone brushing them off because they are just petty common folk and not a part of the political class. I'm not a communist but I find Stalin fascinating. He's basically the Russian version of Lucky Luciano except he came from being a mob boss to ruling half of the world before his death. He was more powerful than any Tsar or Caesar and ruled an Empire larger than Genghis Khan or the Romans. All while intellectuals take about how dumb and ignorant to politics Stalin was. From where I'm sitting he seems like the smarter politician than everyone else in the Bolshevik regime. His rise to power is actually fascinating but you really have to look at Russian post 1991 biographies to get a feel for who Stalin really was! Cheers!!!
It's a little surprising the documentary doesn't mention the Miracle of the Vistula in 1920 - the battle in which Joseph Stalin was one of the commanders. The invading Red Army heading towards the West was stopped at the gates of Warsaw. There's no telling how much further they would have reached had they not been stopped there, for their original plans included going as far west as Italy.
The name of the battle comes from the fact that a Polish communications officer forgot to cypher his message. The result was that the Polish battle plans got into the hands of the Red Army. For some reason their generals assumed, that it was an attempt to trick them. The Polish army was thus able to deal a defeating blow to the Red Army.
The key battle took place on the 15th of August, the Feast of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, venerated as the Queen of Poland.
Oooooh noooooo, ive seen many docus about the soviet union. All of them didnt mention it. How can i ever look at the same way at the soviet union...................

Obviously there must have been people who didn't like it and also people who did like it.
Жили мы в СССР в 60 - 80-е годы как и не снилось гражданам капиталистических стран: бесплатное всеобщее образование, бесплатная медицина, бесплатное жилье, мирное время. По принципу: человек человеку друг, товарищ и брат. Сейчас мы в диком капитализме.

Collectivism in a the most basic form.
"from out of nowhere, Vladimir Lenin..." ???
Yup... In this video talk about the Communist Russians, as if these Russians were not Russians. That's confusing. The "Communist" Russians are Russians. They are as Russian, as the Russians of all Russia are equally Russian. These Russians did not come from underground, nor did they come from outer space. They are Russians of Russia and therefore, they do have every Right to claim the sovereignty of Russia. So, why call these Russians "Communists" or "Soviet"? They are RUSSIAN!
In 1922 Soviet Union was born" I see you have some abilities beyond but it was 1924. I know, two years of my country's life means none to you, but that was a lot for 200 mil people living there then and it means a lot for me now still. Check the history of early 20s in Asia - mean Russia and China - and you'd better understand what is going on now. Including names, personalities, chains of events.

Wait... so a small group of people had a revolution and were given total control, both socially and economically, of a nation and then proceeded to make terrible decisions and/or intentionally destroy and subjugate the peasant class? Boy what a crazy thing. Who would expect such a thing.
Traditionally Russian politics evolved on Keeping a good relationship whit either France or Germany but also a safe distance from the slaughter hause that Europe historically was..
But what made Stalin suddenly want to subdue all of Europe.
And I think it was about fundamental changes russia was experiencing internally and the Complete Collapse of all European empires in World war 1.( plus a Russian civil war.
That anger gave rise to Stalinism
Stalinism was born out of a struggle for power and Stalin never had the goal of subjugating Europe. Stalin had the goal of building communism in a single country. But Trotsky wanted to spark a world communist revolution throughout the world. For this reason, Trotsky and Stalin were enemies. The Polish-Bolshevik war in 1919-1921 was the result of the policies of Trotsky-Lenin.
Thank you for this video series. I wonder what poison Stalin fed Lenin to get him out of the way?
And what Khrushchev did to Stalin to get him out of the way.
Lenin had a series of strokes and was all but dead when he actually died. Stalin was already running things by them.
Lenin was a genius, and I encourage everyone here to read State and Revolution.
an evil genius perhaps
Vladimir Lenin is the reason why I understand the class struggle living in an imperial United States.

Stalin was very smart to heavily industrialize the USSR, because if he hadn't, Germany would have completely demolished them. He was a very smart, shrewd man...but also cut-throat, sadistic, cruel, and evil

My heart breaks for the Russian people. To live in horror about what your own government might do to you & your entire family for the smallest transgression. I wonder if they'll ever get the chance to live free & truly at peace. 🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️
You must read, how majority of Russian people lived before October revolution. And after it you can understand, why people supported Lenin and Bolscheviks.
You didn't even need to be guilty of a small transgression. Many were killed for fabricated transgressions or no transgressions at all .
My heart breaks for the American people. To live under terror of its own army during miners strikes in 1920-x and under race segregation, to work 12 hours a day till 1938, to be black in labour camps is a hard torture.

I WONDER IF STALIN TALKED GEORGIAN AS WELL AS RUSSIAN.
Don’t wonder, he did
Why did he kill the kulaks?
because they were sabotaging the economy by setting fields ablaze and killing lifestock. They were economic criminals
Because they resisted collectivization by sabotaging their own crops and livestock and thus caused the famine.
Term oil
Out of the frying pan and into the flame
The assertion that the collectivization caused the hunger is wrong. Crop failures happened in the Russian Empire every few years due the harsh climate. Actually, the collectivization was the measure to use agricultural machinery, so to level up the productivity and to end the hunger problems.
. The issue was, when the drought came, the grain reserves were already contracted for the export, so the possibility for help was not big. Still, where collectivization was in progress, the people got centralized food help from the state, whereas otherwise it was depending from the local authorities some of whom were unintended to help or just corrupt.
. That's why some areas were struck by hunger, and their neighbor areas were not. But the authors are biased themselves, so don't mention this fact.

This movie is very important and came at the right time as it captures accurate historical facts. In Russia, all school history textbooks have recently been rewritten. In Ukraine they were rewritten even earlier, a few years after 2014. Russian textbooks now contain an alternative version of history that does not contain inconvenient and bloody truths that can in any way denigrate or cast a shadow on Russia today, challenge its greatness, power or special historical role in establishing justice in the world. For public reporting of many reliable facts is now criminalized. Therefore, in Russia today history as a science no longer exists, and the study of history as a hobby and volunteering in archaeological excavations of mass graves of victims of Stalinist repression is dangerous. A few years ago, a criminal case of pedophilia was fabricated against a scientist who was the organizer of such excavations. In Ukraine, after the beginning of the conflict in 2014 and the change of the country's course from pro-Russian to pro-Western, history textbooks were rewritten with an emphasis on the idea of Ukraine's existence as a full-fledged independent state since ancient times and the ancient Ukrainian nation with its own language and culture. Throughout history Russia is presented as a neighbor-aggressor state living with wars of conquest and constantly encroaching on the integrity of Ukraine and pursuing a policy of genocide of Ukrainians during the Soviet period, which is called the period of Soviet occupation. Therefore, a professional scientific view from the outside like this documentary is what can save history, prevent its distortion for the pursuit of certain political interests and give people the opportunity to learn the truth about their country, their origins and themselves. People should have the right to know these
Stalin had 3 defense positions in russia, he was aware of an attack but thought it was impossible for the germans to break these lines.
Read Timothy Synder's 2 books: Bloodlands, and Borderlands- for more indepth history of this mass murder state.
The cruelty under the Soviet Regime cannot be left underestimated-Robert Conquest gives a carefully accumulated total for the Stalin years (at least 20,000,000 killed) 7 ; and in his samizdat translated into English, Dyadkin, a Soviet geophysicist, did a demographic analysis of excess Soviet deaths, 1926 to 1954, and concluded that Soviet repression killed 23,100,000 to 32,000,000 ...
This is fake numbers which not confirmed by documents.
Rip al innocent people of al wars
Russia never disappoints 😂
Centralized Power = The People are The Capital
When we talk about the early founding years of the soviet union and compare the modern day state of russia which is stronger my answer is the former soviet union.
I thank my God In heaven that the Red Army was there to deal with the Whermact , because I seriously doubt any other army or combination of armies could have withstood the fury of a fighting force they had built. It wasn't until the Whermact was greatly weakened by the Red Army that American and British forces were able to go toe to toe with the Whermact and the Luftwaffe...

The Russian Revolution was the most succcessful Regime Change Operation ever.
The German high command sought out poor Lenin in Zurich. He had been immersed in Karl Marx' ideology of communism.
So they took Lenin, his books and gave him 5 Mio Goldmarks- and off on a train to Sankt Petersburg.
The Operation was super successful and created the Sovietunion.
So for all those who wonder who created the Soviet Union- it was not the Russians. It was the Germans based on a German ideology.
But to understand complex systems and how they evolve one needs an intellect that can model such systems- and honestly very, very few can. :)
From stone age to supepower. And ideas that created Soviet Union will soon rise again.
13:00 - Uncle Joe likely got the idea from the Ptolemies (imitatio Alexandri) - Lenin:Stalin = Alexander III The Great: Ptolemy I Soter
Russia's rapid industrialization was a separate genocide unto itself. The appalling working conditions, abuse, danger, etc cost a whole lot of lives
Мы будем восхвалять Советский Союз, пока сможем.
This is sad
A thing to note is famines were a part of course for much of human populations until quite recently. And so was it in Russia of the time. I am not in a position to say if Russian state policies didn't contribute or exacerbate it, which it probably did. But we have to see it in context especially when we are aware of the tremendous ideological and competing bias against Soviet Russia
It wasn't just exacerbated, it was completely created by Stalin taking food from peasants and then hiding his doings from the larger cities. Drought or crop fail is not to blame, Stalin is.
I try to explain that to people all the time, before anyone can judge what happened, you must first understand what the entire world was like at the time, we cannot judge people of the past based on today's standards, we should only judge them on the standards of the time in which they lived.
Exactly.

State owns everything. All matches up. Just because it didnt come out an utopia does'nt mean you can deny its real identity.
@@KneGros-nc1ss All socialism says is that the worker owns his labor. That's it. This idea that all socialism is, is a planned economy is not only a lie, it's entirely outside of the realm anything socialism is attempting to do. Socialism recognizes that centrally planned economies don't work. Stalin purged his offices of dissenters after he inherited an agrarian empire to create a country in his own image, directly a contrarian to a democratically owned workplace. If you ask me, the way our economy runs today through lobbying and paid politics is closer to a centrally planned economy that the soviet economy had, the only difference is, instead of organizing raw materials into weapons of war, it's graduated, in peacetime, to insider trading, nepotism, and most importantly of all, class warfare. I mean really, when the Ruso-Ukrainian war began, the headlines called Russian leadership oligarchs, as if we don't have a small group of the wealthy elite, making a bi-partisan effort to buy America every four years.
