Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin (/ËstÉËlÉªn/; 18 December 1878 â 5 March 1953) was the leader of the Soviet Union from the mid-1920s until his death in 1953. Holding the post of the General Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, he was effectively the dictator of the state.
However, although Stalin did enforce russification of the Soviet Union, his main enemies were his political opponents and their followers. His most ferocious acts of terror - The Great Purges - took place between 1934 and 1939. In 1934 Sergey Kirov, a rival to Stalin, was murdered.
