Resistance series
Lenin and his followers of the Bolshevik communist party attempted to overthrow the corrupt Russian monarchy in the Russian Revolution. However, Russian Monarchist forces led by Tsar Mikhail brutally crushed the Bolshevik uprising. Lenin and other principle instigators of the failed revolution were captured and sent to a Russian gulag (labor camp) in Siberia where they presumably died.
