Lenin, born in 1870, was committed to revolutionary struggle from an early age - his elder brother was hanged for the attempted assassination of Czar Alexander III. In 1891 Lenin passed his Law exam with high honors, whereupon he took to representing the poorest peasantry in Samara. After moving to St. Petersburg in 1893, Lenin's experience with the oppression of the peasantry in Russia, coupled with the revolutionary teachings of G V Plekhanov, guided Lenin to meet with revolutionary groups. In April 1895, his comrades helped send Lenin abroad to get up to speed with the revolutionary movement in Europe, and in particular, to meet the Emancipation of Labour Group,(where he met Martov) of which Plekhanov head. After five months abroad, traveling from Switzerland to France to Germany, working at libraries and newspapers to make his way, Lenin returned to Russia, carrying a brief case with a false bottom, full of Marxist literature.

On returning to Russia, Lenin and Martov created the League

1895-1900 Lenin was deported to Siberia. He shared a room with Oskari Engberg, a Finnish communist who was likewise deported to Siberia. Lenin married Nadezhda Krupskaya.

August 1918 Lenin survived an assassination attempt, but was wounded.

The policy was created to mend ties between the workers and peasants, and was necessary for the Russia people to survive after the ravages of two destructive wars had decimated the country. Socialist economics were impossible to maintain in such conditions, though for a limited period the Socialist state could still exist, holding over in wait for the European revolutions.

Russian Soviet Federated Socialist Republic

The significance of the League of Struggle for the Emancipation of the Working Class lay, to use Lenins' expression, in its being the germ of a revolutionary party that took its support from the working class and led the class struggle of the proletariat.
