After the fall of the USSR the market went form a pro-government, to a pro-private industry market. This led to a major crash in the Russian economy because their was little to no government regulation, this let the oligarchs make more and more money. But when Putin came to power he brought a more tougher and powerful government and put more and more regulations into place limiting the oligarchs ability to make money.
Vladimir Putin limited the power of oligarchs primarily through a combination of legal and political strategies. He targeted key oligarchs who posed a threat to his authority, most famously Mikhail Khodorkovsky, who was imprisoned on charges of fraud and tax evasion. Additionally, Putin reasserted state control over key industries, particularly in energy, and established tighter regulations that curtailed the influence of oligarchs in politics and business. This consolidation of power allowed Putin to strengthen his regime and reduce the oligarchs' ability to challenge him.

Yes, Russia has a Parliament but it doesn't exercise as much power as it does in the US (called Congress). The real power in Russia is with the President and lately, with Putin as prime minister.
No, Putin is a ordinary human and the former President of Russia.
President Dmitriy Anatolyevich MEDVEDEV is the current head of state, but Premier Vladimir Vladimirovich PUTIN is still the head of United Russia, the party in power. The president has most of the power, but the premier is second in terms of power, hence in many way Putin is the "leader" of Russia.
