Key figures in the early consolidation of communist power in the Soviet Union included Vladimir Lenin, Leon Trotsky, and Joseph Stalin. Lenin was pivotal in establishing the Bolshevik regime following the October Revolution and implementing the New Economic Policy. Trotsky played a crucial role as the leader of the Red Army during the Civil War, ensuring Bolshevik victory. Stalin, who later emerged as the dominant leader, further centralized power and implemented policies that solidified communist control.

communist countries led by the Soviet Union
Communist leaders came to power without the backing of the Soviet Union in China. The Chinese Communist Party, led by Mao Zedong, established control after a prolonged civil war, culminating in the victory of the communists in 1949. This success was largely due to a combination of popular support, effective guerrilla warfare, and the weaknesses of the Nationalist government. While the Soviet Union later provided support, the initial rise to power was primarily a domestic achievement.
The Soviet Union
The communist takeover of Czechoslovakia in 1948 was primarily due to a combination of political instability, economic challenges, and the influence of the Soviet Union. After World War II, the Communist Party gained significant support, capitalizing on public discontent with the existing government and the slow pace of economic recovery. The coup was facilitated by the Soviet Union, which provided support to communist factions, leading to a swift and effective consolidation of power that culminated in the resignation of non-communist leaders and the establishment of a communist government. This marked the beginning of a four-decade period of communist rule in the country.
During the Second Red Scare, U.S. leaders primarily feared the Soviet Union as the nation leading the worldwide communist movement. The rise of communism in Eastern Europe and the establishment of the Soviet sphere of influence heightened these fears, particularly following events such as the Korean War and the launch of Sputnik. This apprehension contributed to domestic policies aimed at countering perceived communist threats, including McCarthyism and various anti-communist campaigns.
