A totalitarian state, is a where the central government of a state does not tolerate any parties with opposing views and exercises complete dictatorial rule over all or most aspects of life. Lenin, the leader of the Bolsheviks, took many measures in an attempt to create a totalitarian state, including the dissolution of Constituent Assembly, the use of decrees and the establishment of a secret police group called the Cheka. However there were also some ways in which he failed to achieve full totalitarianism.

Currently selling all of my A level notes for CIE (International Cambridge Examinations)

Arguably the most difficult exam board, CIE is a struggle for even the best of us. My teachers predicted I would get C\'s and D\'s in my A levels, which pushed me to find new ways to study and write up my notes. I ended up getting all A\'s and going to my university of choice (Uni of Bath): who had previously denied my entry based on my previous grades. I want to share my work with others because I know for a fact It can help others achieve the same :)
