The turmoil of the Purges and Stalin’s reputation. In August 1939 Soviet leader Stalin signed a Non- Aggression Pact with German leader, Adolf Hitler. In September 1939 Hitler and Stalin both attacked Poland and divided the country up between them. In November 1939 the USSR attacked Finland. In June-July 1940 the USSR invaded and took control of Baltic States of Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia.

But in June 1941 everything changed But in June 1941 everything changed. Hitler turned on Stalin and invaded the USSR. The decisive conflict of World War II began, which Stalin won, but at a terrible cost.
