1918 -
The Constituent Assembly is dissolved by the Bolsheviks in favor of the Soviets and a bitter Fanya Kaplan shoots Lenin on August 30, 1918 as he leaves a factory and succeeds. The Cheka question her, but all she says is:
My name is Fanya Kaplan. Today I shot at Lenin. I did it on my own. I will not say whom I obtained my revolver. I will give no details. I had resolved to kill Lenin long ago. I consider him a traitor to the Revolution. I was exiled to Akatui for participating in an assassination attempt against a Tsarist official in Kiev. I spent eleven years at hard labour. After the Revolution I was freed. I favoured the Constituent Assembly and am still for it.
Lenin struggles for breath in the Kremlin and eventually dies the same day.
Poland is looking for independence, the Russian Revolution is about to become the Russian Civil War.
What happens?
