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.

Answer:

George Washington (1732-99) was commander in chief of the Continental Army during the American Revolutionary War (1775-83) and served two terms as the first U.S. president, from 1789 to 1797. The son of a prosperous planter, Washington was raised in colonial Virginia.

Martha Washington served as the nation's first first lady and spent about half of the Revolutionary War at the front. She helped manage and run her husbands' estates. She raised her children, grandchildren, nieces, and nephews; and for almost 40 years she was George Washington's "worthy partner".

Nathanael Greene was one of the most respected generals of the Revolutionary War (1775-83) and a talented military strategist. As commander of the Southern Department of the Continental army, he led a brilliant campaign that ended the British occupation of the South.

George Rogers Clark is remembered as the heroic Revolutionary War commander who led a small force of frontiersmen through the freezing waters of the Illinois country to capture British-held Fort Sackville at Vincennes during February 1779.

Alexander Hamilton was an impassioned champion of a strong federal government, and played a key role in defending and ratifying the U.S. Constitution. As the first secretary of the U.S. Treasury, Hamilton built a financial foundation for the new nation, against fierce opposition from arch rival Thomas Jefferson.
