**Russian Leader Vladimir Leninmedia type="youtube" key="zucfs6X7hOc" height="344" width="425" align="right"** Vladimir Lenin began a communist government in November 1917. Lenin's first act after taking control over Russia was to withdraw from the war because of the military improvements of the involved countries. Lenin then soon focused on establishing a Communist State. Russia lost substantial territory by agreeing to the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk with Germany. Germany knew that it was only a matter of time now that they would have to surrender though..
