==Identity Politics==

Lenin turned Russia into autonomous republics so not one ethnic group will have too much power; Communist theory denies the existence of race but the adherents flip flop to favor one group over another.

In addition, Lenin and his Bolshevik followers created Central Asian republics, some of which never existed before, like Kazakhstan, gave them many Russian lands that did not belong to them, like Orenburg and other territories populated by Ural Cossacks and provided for building their infrastructure, hospitals, schools etc., by those in the Russian workforce, with Russians being qualified specialists.
