Vladimir Lenin dies. Vladimir Lenin, the architect of the Bolshevik Revolution and the first leader of the Soviet Union, dies of a brain hemorrhage at the age of 54. In the early 1890s, Lenin abandoned his law career to devote himself to Marxist study and the provocation of revolutionary activity among Russian workers.
He was sent to Siberia after he had created the party newspaper Pravda. Lenin, who was leader of the Communists during the Russian Revolution, admired Stalin for the hard work he did for the party. He helped Stalin reach a high position in the Central Committee of the Communist Party. When Lenin died in 1924 Joseph Stalin fought for the leadership of the party. By 1928 he had removed all of his enemies and became the sole leader of the Soviet Union. During the 1930s he started five year development plans and focused on improving the countryâs industry.
