Vladimir Lenin was the first communist ruler in Russia, although practically speaking he did not do much ruling.
The USSR had just been formed in late 1923 early 1924 when the Russian Soviet Federated Socialist Republic joined with Ukraine, Belorussia and the Transcaucusus Federation to become the USSR. By that time Lenin was just the nominal leader of the country having had two strokes and being almost totally invalided. In fact, he was totally out of the picture when it came to who was in charge of the actual running of the country. Lenin died on January 21, 1924. Joseph Stalin, Lev Kamenev and Grigory Zinoviev then ruled as a triumvirate as Stalin gradually ousted both of them. Stalin took full control himself in 1929.

Communism
You have to be more precise about the time period. Karl Marx was the original leader of the Communist party. That is why it is sometimes called Marxism. Lenin led the Communist Party at the time of the Russian Revolution, Russian Civil War, and into the 1920s. Stalin, Kruschev, and Breshnev all led the Communist Party at various times.
During World War II, the 'ruthless leader' of the Soviet Union was Joseph Stalin (1878-1953). Having achieved absolute power in the Communist nation during the 1920s, Stalin reigned throughout the 1930s, during the whole of World War II, and for a number of years beyond, until his death in 1953.

Though Stalin considered himself a Marxist-Leninist Communist, he is thought to have followed his own version we now know as "Stalinism". Dont listen to this idiot. Stalinism is a type of government not a political ideology. Stalin was a marxist-leninist. The term Stalinism only came about because Stalin was a horrible leader, and he did things such as killing millions of people. Stalinism also is used because of the personality cult that Stalin created so he would be an absolute dictator. And don't listen to THIS guy. Honestly, Stalin did many bad things, as did Hitler and many other people in the world. But think. Stalin acted through desperation, and you don't gain complete dictatorship over a country through simply controlling collective farming! You need to unify them with something-that became war! And Stalinism is just his version of nationalism. Stalin wanted the government to control the major businesses and collective farming. That way, he as one person, can control the economy over everybody else.

During World War II, the supreme leader of the Soviet Union was Joseph Stalin (1878-1953). Having achieved absolute control of the Communist country in the 1920s, Stalin ruled throughout the 1930s, during World War II, and then beyond, until his death in 1953.
The leader of the Soviet Union in 1939, at the start of World War II, was Joseph Stalin (1878-1953). Having achieved total control of the Soviet Union at some point during the 1920s, Stalin ruled the large Communist nation as absolute dictator throughout World War II and then beyond, until his death in 1953.
During World War II, the 'ruthless leader' of the Soviet Union was Joseph Stalin (1878-1953). Having achieved absolute power in the Communist nation during the 1920s, Stalin reigned throughout the 1930s, during the whole of World War II, and for a number of years beyond, until his death in 1953.
The strongest presence of the Communist Party in the United States was in the 1920s and the draw mainly came from the failure of industry to grant major worker's concessions and from opposition to the kinds of racism from Jim Crow. As these situations began to change and Communism became tainted by the Red Scare and the Soviet Union, Communism in the US receded.
No, Stalin was not a German leader. Joseph Stalin was the leader of the Soviet Union from the mid-1920s until his death in 1953. He was born in Georgia, which was part of the Russian Empire at the time.
The red scare of the 1920s was one of the main results of the fear and paranoia surrounding communist ideology and the Russian Revolution. With the rise of communist movements and the establishment of the Soviet Union, many Americans feared the spread of communism within the United States, leading to government crackdowns on suspected radicals and left-wing groups.
In the late 1920s, Stalin ruled the Soviet Union as one of a triumvirate of leaders along with Lev Kamenev and Grigory Zinoviev. During this time, however, Stalin also served as General Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party. He used this position to consolidate his power by appointing allies and removing opponents to and from positions of authority in the Communist Party and Soviet government. After Lenin died in 1924, Stalin was engaged in a struggle for complete power with Leon Trotsky, Grigoty Zinoviev and Nokolai Bukharin. He out maneuvered all three one by one and became the sole power in the USSR in 1929.
