Can you help me? It’s about Vlademir Lenin!!

kow [346]

Answer:

Oh, this is what it's about, okay, hold on. Here is some information on him to help you with your answer, because I am terrible at Spanish XD

Explanation:

Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov (22 April [O.S. 10 April] 1870 – 21 January 1924), better known by his alias Lenin, was a Russian revolutionary, politician, and political theorist. He served as the first and founding head of government of Soviet Russia from 1917 to 1924 and of the Soviet Union from 1922 to 1924.

Vladimir Lenin knew how unhappy the people of Russia were. He promised them lots of things that they wanted - his slogan was peace, bread and land. This promise made him very popular. Lenin was the leader of a group of revolutionaries called the Bolsheviks.

What were the Bolsheviks known for? Well, here:

The Bolsheviks ultimately became the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. The Bolsheviks, or Reds, came to power in Russia during the October Revolution phase of the 1917 Russian Revolution, and founded the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic

So he put forward three demands, called as Lenin's 'April Theses'. (i) The war to be brought to an end and Russia should withdraw itself from the war. (ii) Land to be transferred to the peasants, thus feudalism to be banned. (iii) Banks be nationalised.

After taking over, the Bolsheviks promised 'peace, land, and bread' to the Russian people. In 1917 Lenin returned to Russia from exile with German help. The tsar and other Romanovs were executed by the Bolsheviks after the revolution.

I hope this information helps you to decipher your answer! Sorry, I couldn't exactly right it out for you, I don't want it to be wrong, so I just gave the information I found on the web. You probably should just paraphrase this! XD Thanks and Brainliest please!
