After the death of his dad, Vasili III, the Rurikid ruler of the Grand Duchy of Moscow, he was declared supreme prince when he was three years of age. The "Chosen Council," a group of reformers, rallied around the young Ivan in the year 1547, announcing him tsar (emperor) of All Rus' and developed the Tsardom of Russia, with Moscow as the primary state. Ivan's rule was marked by Russia's change from a middle ages state to an empire under the control of the tsar, but at a big cost to the people and the nation's long-lasting economy.Let’s talk about his life, his legacy, his evil deeds, and the way things occurred in history.

    Lenin Lives?

    Lenin's work and influence have often been written off as no longer relevant, and many today consider this to be so. Lenin has, they claim, had his day, even though he is still revered in China, the world's most populous country. However, Lenin, like his mentor Marx, has had a tendency to rise from apparent decline and oblivion to renewed force and influence. 
     
     
     
    This study examines the key elements of Lenin's life and career, the consolidation of his ideas into the doctrines of "Leninism," the influence of Leninism in promoting revolutionary movements around the globe, and the currently disputed issue of whether his ideas still have any relevance today. In particular, while considering his views on the role of the revolutionary party, often seen as the centerpiece of his theory and practice, this account identifies the root of Lenin's global influence in his opposition to capitalist imperialism and as a bedrock foundation for the opposition of many to fascism and associated ideologies. While recognizing that Lenin's reputation has reached its lowest point, not least in his home country where his legacy is reviled by Vladimir Putin and other contemporary leaders, the book concludes by weighing up the contemporary arguments of those who believe that Lenin still lives.

    When it comes to taking action, making good decisions, and cultivating inner peace, there's a unique factor in life that only you can give to yourself. 
     It's called " solitude." 
     For many people, the idea of being alone triggers fear and discomfort, even for short periods of time. But in this book, we'll explore the mental layers of the human psyche in a simple and practical way, and challenge the notion that loneliness is something to be feared. 
     Inside this book, you'll find a wealth of psychological concepts explained in a straightforward and accessible manner, all focused on the power of solitude and what it means to be alone. We'll provide examples and tips that are easy to incorporate into your daily life, helping you chart a clear course towards achieving your goals. 
     You'll learn how to not only enjoy your moments in solitude, but also how to value them and make the most of every minute. These moments will become the foundation of your character and thoughts, bringing you a sense of calm even during life's most challenging moments. 
     The path of life is different for everyone, and each person is the architect of their own destiny. 
     However, consider this 
     The difference between a person who earns $1 million and another who earns $100 may be just a few hours spent in solitude. The difference between those who achieve their dreams and those who don't may be how they spend their alone time. Even those who have lost everything in life can completely transform their circumstances through productive solitude. 
     So ask yourself, would you pay more attention to the moments you spend alone if you knew they could be the key to unlocking success in all aspects of your life? 
     To truly enjoy and excel in any area of life, we must learn to make the most of our solitary moments and above all understand one of the most important principles in life "The power of being alone"
