Peter I played a crucial role in the dramatic economic and population growth of Russia in the eighteenth century. He made some radical reforms which were not accepted by everyone. He conducting a tax reform by imposing severe taxes on the people. He also did a Church Reform, which reduced the power of religion and church in the public life. He established the "Senate" and the "Ministries", leading to a more centralized administration and an exclusion of the hereditary privileges. He focused on the increase of the industrial production and the advances of technology and engineering. In addition, he increased the empire's trading activities and changed many of the agricultural practices.
During the Five Year Plans Stalin created an almost pure command economy. If he needed food, he requisitioned it. If that didn't work, he had the country-side searched for private stocks which he confiscated, having first killed its owners. If he wanted to build a factory in the Urals, he sent people there to build it using food and materials he had requisitioned elsewhere. He killed maybe 15 million people he thought were opposing his policies. He also inspired workers very effectively, convincing them that they were building a new type of civilization, and were in fact becoming a new and better type of human being. He was helped in this endeavor by the fact that the entire rest of the world was manifestly against the Soviet experiment and wanted it to fail. The workers believed their lives depended on rapid industrialization, and given the rise of fascism, and their leaders murderous resolve, they were right.
