Who was the leader of the Bolshevik (communist) party in Russia?
Communism is when the government has complete control of the economy. There is no private ownership. All business, property, and economic matters are regulated by the government with the goal of promoting equality.
Soviets were local groups of workers, soldiers, farmers, and peasants who began ruling their cities and towns in place of the Provisional Government. The Soviets played a big role in assisting Lenin in his return to Russia and organizing the Bolsheviks to lead a revolution.
Group of revolutionary Russian Marxists who took control of Russia’s government in November 1917 (Bolshevik Revolution).

A totalitarian government may have more than one leader. A totalitarian government controls every aspect of public and private life. A totalitarian government is most commonly associated with communism, because of the level of control this gives the government. A totalitarian government also uses fear tactics as well as censorship and propaganda to keep the people in line.
This leader’s successful fascist movement took power in this country in 1922.What is the name of the leader and what country did he take power in?
A fascist government has one leader. This leader demands complete and total loyalty to himself and the state. This type of system usually elevates the wealthy and members of the military or state government. Often times fascist governments sponsor state run industry/businesses, but not for the goal of equality (like in communism). Being disloyal to the leader means you are disloyal to the state. This type of leader often uses fear tactics to keep people in line.
Give three reasons people supported fascist regimes in Europe in the inter-war years (1919 – 1939).
1. After WWI many countries lacked strong leadership (weak monarch in Italy and weak coalition gov’t in Germany) – people wanted strong leaders.2. Economic problems such as inflation and depression (both Germany and Italy).3. The strong emphasis on state and loyalty was appealing to countries that did not accomplish as much as they hoped in WWI (land gains for Italy, loss of war and war guilty for Germany).4. Use of fascist fear tactics, secret police, censorship & propaganda.

1. Germany was divided into zones by the Allied countries.2. The United Nations was formed.3. US emerged as a world super power (and the Soviet Union).4. Germany and Japan were de-militarized.5. Competition between the US and the USSR to create atomic weapons began.6. Europe and Japan went to periods of Allied occupation and rebuilding.
This is the metaphorical divide between communist eastern Europe and non-communist western Europe. It was first used in a speech by Winston Churchill.
Containment was America’s policy during the Cold War to try and stop the spread of communism and the influence of the Soviet Union throughout Europe and the world. The Truman Doctrine and Marshall Plan were put in place to work towards this goal.
Domino theory is the belief that if one country in a region becomes communist that the surrounding countries will fall to communism as well. This is the justification America used for becoming involved in Vietnam.
During the Great Leap Forward Mao Zedong tried to move China towards more efficient (communist) farming techniques by introducing communes/collective farms. These ended up being unsuccessful, resulting in massive crop failure and country wide starvation.
