Rise of Totalitarian States (1919-1941) In Russia, hundreds of years of rule by the Czars was replaced by revolutionaries. After Vladimir Lenin died, Josef Stalin created a totalitarian state and tried to modernize Russia. Hatred of the Treaty of Versailles and enormous economic troubles in Germany led to the rise of Adolf Hitler. In Japan, Emperor Hirohito lost much power to the military leader Hideki Tojo. Japanese militarism would lead to war with the USA. After a series of weak governments, Benito Mussolini created a totalitarian society in Italy.
