You do realize that if you looked it up on Google you would have saved more time than doing what you did (posting it on Poly and then waiting for a response)?
“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”
- John 13:34-35 (NRSV)

Here's another question: Why did Ulyanov change his name?
Official soviet version- because of conspiration. Cops were hunting for them. A lot of Bolshevicks changed their names.
but what does Lenin mean?
Soviet version says that Ulyanov changed his name to Lenin, because he was hidding from police on bank of "Lena" river. He did spend some time living in forest near bank of this river when cops were looking for him, but unofficial version says different. It says that he changed his name because of woman whose name was "Lena" (Helen). And "Lenin" on Russian means- "Lena's man" (Helen's man, the guy of Helen)
I know that Stalin means "steel",
Wrong. "Stal" means steel. "Stalin" means "Steel made man"...or "Stal's man, the guy of Stal". Soviet version says that Djugashvili changed his name to 'Stalin" because he was like steel and had great tolerance to physical pain. Unofficial version says that he had some feelings to woman whose family name was "Stal". (She was revolutionary like him too).
"Joe Steel"... It's a tad corny, when you anglocise it like that.

Stalin
Kruschev
Brezhnev
Andropov

Gorbachev
Who was the guy I missed, and also what years were each of them the leader?
You missed two guys.
Between Stalin and Khrushev there was Lavrenty Pavlovich Beria- the cheif of NKVD. After death of Stalin he took the power, but was arrested after few days by group of generals and later shot as "enemy of the people". Ironic.

yeah he was a real sweety Beria. IIRC he cried and wept and generally behaved like a complete wuss when he was arrested.
Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind- bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space.
Douglas Adams (Influential author)
In Finland, the "Superman" -comic book character is translated as "Teräsmies". "Teräs" means "Steel", so I almost always refer Stalin as "Georgian Teräsmies", or "Georgian Steelman" / "Georgian Superman".

He lived like complete motherf*cker and died like complete sh*t. We have a saying here "sobake sobachya smert" which means 'dog deserves dog's death' or something like this.
