Inside of the Soviet Union, there were many purges organised by Stalin and the NKVD in which hundreds of thousands of the population were executed and killed. The Great Purge is remembered as Stalin’s bloodiest purge in which he and Nickolai Yezhov, (The Chief of the NKVD) put down anyone who dared to dissent against the leadership. The Great Purge affected everyone, and in particular hit the leadership of the Communist Party very hard. The Red Army also suffered from many of its generals and leaders being killed, but also it affected the everyday population.
Those living inside of the Soviet Union greatly feared the knock on the door from the NKVD, in which they would then be arrested. The executions carried out by the Great Purge were mostly done by firing squads and by executioners who shot its estimated 1.2 million people. There were parts of the population that were hit badly by the Great Purge, with Stalin specifically targeting them. The Great Purge was a time of great torture too, with large amounts of the population being brutally tortured for information.
As mentioned, the Great Purge resulted in the deaths of over 1 million people, and thousands more were sent to the Gulags, the horrific concentration labour camps set up in the Soviet Union. Stalin eventually got what he wanted, and he had the population of the Soviet Union loyal to him and his government. However it was an incredibly bloody and barbaric time to be living inside of Stalin’s dictatorship.
