Vladimir Lenin was a Russian revolutionary, communist politician, and head of the Soviet Union from 1917 until his death in 1924. He was born on April 22, 1870, in the city of Simbirsk (now called Ulyanovsk), Russia, and was originally named Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov.

Lenin became involved in revolutionary activities as a young man and was eventually exiled to Siberia for his political views. He later became the leader of the Bolsheviks, a faction of the Russian Social Democratic Labor Party, and played a central role in the October Revolution of 1917, which overthrew the Russian Provisional Government and established the first socialist state in the world.

As the leader of the Soviet Union, Lenin introduced a series of policies and reforms aimed at establishing a socialist society and economy. These included the nationalization of land and industry, the establishment of a planned economy, and the suppression of political opposition. Lenin also implemented policies aimed at improving the standard of living of the working class, such as the introduction of free education and healthcare.

Lenin's ideas and leadership had a profound impact on the course of world history. He is regarded as one of the most important figures of the 20th century, both for his role in the establishment of the Soviet Union and for his contributions to Marxist theory and revolutionary practice.
