Lenin and the 15 republics, USSR.

Lenin and the 15 republics, USSR.

Scene depicts Lenin with people wearing traditional costumes from the 15 Soviet republics showing the big diversity that you could find in the USSR.

Do you recognize any Soviet republic according its traditional costume?…

Translation:

We want a voluntary union of nations, a union that would not allow any violence of one nation over another, a union that would be based on complete trust, on a clear consciousness of fraternal unity, on completely voluntary consent.

V. I. Lenin (right top corner).

The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics is a single union multinational state formed on the basis of the principle of socialist federalism, as a result of the free self-determination of nations and the voluntary association of equal Soviet socialist republics.

The USSR personifies the state unity of the Soviet people, unites all nations and nationalities for the purpose of jointly building communism.

From the Constitution of the USSR (left bottom corner).

Lenin as a symbol:

While Lenin was uncomfortable with the personality cult that sprung up about him, the party exploited it during the Russian Civil War and officially enshrined it after his death.As early as 1918, a biography of Lenin was written, and busts were produced.With his death, his embalmed body was displayed (to imitate beliefs that the bodies of saints did not decay) pictures,books and posters were produced in mass quantities with his image, this poster is a excellent example of this propaganda campaign carried out by the Soviet Union.
