Totalitarianism is a system of government in which all social, political, economic, intellectual, cultural, and spiritual activities are controlled by the rulers of a state. A totalitarian state is ruled by a leader who controls a political party, such as Nazi Germany under Adolf Hitler, Communist China under Mao tse-tung, and the USSR under Joseph Stalin.
Stalin was not an emperor and did not have an empire. He was the leader for many years of the USSR
Yes. 70 years
This is a Dictatorship, a form of totalitarian rule.
Lenin and Stalin gave the Soviet Union an autocratic (Totalitarian) Communist Government. Stalin kills more people than Lenin did. (Because Stalin is even more cruel than Lenin, who is somewhat more humane and Stalin took place as leader of USSR for nearly 30 years while Lenin died within 5 years after assumed as leader of USSR.)
Joseph Stalin
Premier Nikita Khrushchev was the leader of the USSR in 1962.
Totalitarianism refering to a totalitarian state is a one party state in which each person is supposed to work towards the good of state, much like the aim of Stalin's USSR, or the Nazi's Germany.
Joseph Stalin was the leader of the USSR according to my Social Studies textbook.
That is often called totalitarianism. Obvious examples include Fascist Italy, the USSR (from the mid 1920s onwards) and Nazi Germany,

Stalin was a master of using fear, eliminating his competition, scapegoating, controlling education, creating an effective Propaganda machine, controlling the flow of information to the people, and killing any communist party members who opposed his regime. He believed that he was the the true communist leader and to carry out all of his policies, he had to be the USSR's dictator. No threat to his power was too small to liquidate. Within a few years after Lenin's death, Stalin created his totalitarian state.
