21 янв 1924 г. - Lenin dies, Stalin begins rise to power

Описание:

Stalin’s ruthless totalitarianism and policies concerning agriculture collectivization led to the deaths of anywhere from 20 million to 60 million people from starvation, murder, and combat. The Gulags, Stalin’s forced labor camps, were likely part of Hitler’s inspiration for concentration camps. Hitler also mirrored his cult of personality and belief in industrialized war and systematic genocide. Toward the end of the war, Stalin had already begun staking claims for Cold War interests, culminating in the conference at Yalta.
