Russia, Soviet Union and The Cold War: Stalin’s Legacy | Russia’s Wars Ep.2 | Documentary

Russia’s turbulent history shows a series of devastating wars and merciless rulers. From the rise of the Bolsheviks to Stalin’s deadly purges - power and violence shaped Russia and the Soviet Union for decades. 1917 marked a turning point when Lenin and the Bolsheviks seized power by force in the October Revolution. The chaos led to a civil war in which Trotsky founded and brutally formed the Red Army. Stalin later establishes a cruel rule characterized by famines such as the Holodomor and massive purges. The Second World War brings new challenges as the Red Army fights against Nazi Germany and eventually takes Berlin. After the war, the Soviet Union remains a global superpower, embroiled in proxy wars and the Cold War, before suffering a humiliating defeat in the Afghan War and finally collapsing.
