Joseph Stalin - General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union

Time: Monday Apr 3, 1922

Place: Soviet Union, (Russia)

Details: At the 11th Party Congress in 1922, Lenin nominated Stalin as the party's new General Secretary. Although concerns were expressed that adopting this new post on top of his others would overstretch his workload and give him too much power, Stalin was appointed to the position.
