This episode explores Lenin’s leadership from the October Revolution to his death in 1924, focusing on how he consolidated Bolshevik power through the Civil War, War Communism and the Red Terror. We assess the creation of a one‑party state, the role of the Cheka, and the introduction of the New Economic Policy as a pragmatic retreat.
