Vladimir Lenin

Who was Vladimir Lenin?

Vladimir Lenin was born on April 22, 1870 in Simbirsk, the Russian Empire. As a child, Lenin was born into a wealthy family. Lenin was the child of IIya Ulyanov and Maria Ulyanov. His father was a Russian official in public education. Sadly, in 1866 Lenin's father died from a disease called cerebral hemorvhage. Lenin also had other tragic events happen in his life including his brother being hanged and his sister being forced to leave. Vladimir Lenin was quoted "We will follow a different path." This is what he did to succeed that goal.

Lenin was a Russian revolutionary, a communist politician, and one of the main leaders of the October Revolution and the change to Marxism. Lenin worked for a while in Samara, Russia and later moved to St. Petersbrg. He was involved in student protest and was arrested in 1895 for the study of Marxism. This event got him kicked out of Kazan University. In 1906, Lenin was elected the president of the Russian Social Democratic Labour Party(RSDLP). In 1906 he was elected the presidium of the RSDLP. Lenin also wrote the book, The Developement of Capitalism in Russia.

Vladimir Lenin's Relation To Russia

On November 8, Lenin was elected as the Chairmen of the Council of People's Commissars by the Russian Soviet Congress. Vladimir Lenin was in office during World War I, and made a few important decisions. Lenin also worked with Josef Stalin and Karl Marx to bring power to the communist party.

The main reason that Vladimir Lenin is related to Russia is because he worked with Josef Stalin and Karl Marx to turn Russia into a communist country (at the time, communism was known as Marxism). Karl Marx created the idea of communism and Lenin, and Stalin worked with Marx to make the idea of communism well-known. Lenin is also related to Russia because he was a main leader in the October revolution, which promoted the ideas of communism.

When Stalin and Lenin promoted the ideas of communism in the late 1910's, with Lenin as Stalin's advisor, Stalin gained lots of power. However, Lenin saw what communism was doing to the people and started working against Stalin. Lenin changed the tide towards the retreat of communism in 1921 and 1922. Unfourtunately, he died in 1924, and Stalin went on to become a dictator and ruler of Russia by using the ideas of Karl Marx.

While Stalin was dictator, he built the military up to make it strengh unmachable. Stalin began pouring all of the money in the country into the military, and it quickly became the strongest in the world. This led to Russian expansion, which caused lots of unrest amongst the people. Josef Stalin was not a very fair dictator, and Russia fell into kaos under communist rule. This led to the downfall of communism after a few decades.

you could add a few more linksto your paragraphs

I liked the picture, but you could use another. Also that last paragraph could be broken up. More than half of your links are to wikipedia. So you need to put more links to other places. Also you just need more links. I think you could put in more content too. Overall I think I would give this a 81.

hey, i think that your paragraph is ok, but it can easily become great. You have an average amount of info, but you can legthen it easily by putting some elaborations in you paragraphs. And, you had minimal links, so, you may be lying on everything you said!

I think your page was pretty boring to read. The page also should have more links I think. Maybe could have added more pictures tooo. Out of 100 I give it a 83%

You have okay content almost all of your links go to wikipedia. other wise i would give it a 85%

i would give this a 75-80 there barley any content

I liked the way you had little subhaedings for each paragraph but your content level was low.

This page was lacking content. It was also lacking A good amount of links on the page.

i like the content but i think you should have maybe 1 more pic.

I really liked your page! I noticed that it has a great amount of content that is historical. An issue I see is some Spelling/Grammar mistakes. I wonder if you could use some more kid friendly content on your page? That would make my grade (4) to a higher 4 or 5! Overall, Great Job!!

After reading this page I felt almost as If I were on Wikipedia. The formating was excellent, there were few (6) grammar or spelling mistakes, and you had a solid amount of information. On the other hand you had very little links, out of 438 words and 4 paragraphs you only had 10 links, many going to Wikipedia.( I believe it's good to model off Wikipedia but not to direct all links to it. ) In the future I would suggest adding more links, more content, more pictures, and having smaller paragraphs.

I too thought that your formatting was a real strength. Your fonts and subtitles are all very neat and well selected. I would have liked a few more pictures and perhaps shorter paragraphs in some places.
The biggest weakness is that you shift topics near the end, drifting from talking about Lenin to talking about Stalin. You needed to stay focused on Lenin throughout to really have an accomplished piece.
