Lenin

Lenin ordered them to rebel.

Lenin learned German from books--in prison--"breaking the back of the language at the outset" by memorizing all the nouns. He was incensed when no-one in Germany could understand him.

I remember that Lenin listened to theremin in 1920 (but of course I wasn't there in person at that time).

In Dnipropetrovsk, Lenin Square has been renamed into Maidan Heroes Square.

After his successful space flight, the Soviet Union paid its official thanks to Yuri Gagarin. There was a six-hour parade through Red Square, followed by a ceremony at the Lenin Mausoleum where Gagarin was greeted by General Secretary Nikita Khrushchev.

Lenin was sent into Russia by the Germans in the same way that you might send a phial containing a culture of typhoid or cholera to be poured into the water supply of a great city, and it worked with amazing accuracy.

Russia produced lots of well-known men like Lenin, Stalin, Malenkov, Krushchev, Brezhnev, Andropov, Chernenko, Gorbachev, Yeltsin, Medvedev, and Putin.

There is a claim that Lenin was secretly a Baptist.

The communists under Vladimir Lenin seized power soon after and formed the USSR.

General elections were held in April 2017, and voters elected President Lenin Moreno.
