Leon Trotsky was part of the Bolshevic party during the early years of the USSR. After Lenin (the previous leader of the USSR) died in the 1920's, Trotsky and Joseph Stalin both fought for the power of ruling the USSR. Stalin won, and then exiled Trotsky, afraid that he might organize a military coup to overthrow Stalin.

Trotsky left Russia because he was ordered to. He had already been expelled from the Communist Party but it was not until later that he was ordered to get out of the country.

A Russian agent plunged the pointed end of an ice ax into Trotsky's skull killing him. The assassin was able to reach Trotsky by pretending to be interested in some of the articles written by Trotsky.

Vladimir Lenin was the leader of the Bolsheviks; however Leon Trotsky led the October Revolution. Trotsky coordinated it and carried it out.
Leon Trotsky held many beliefs both in political science, economics and in Marxism. Leon Trotsky believed in the basics of Marxism. He believed that only a violent revolution could bring about a communist society in both Czarist Russia and the Russia ruled by a Provisional Government that replaced the czar when the czar had to abdicate. Trotsky understood how difficult it would be in transforming Russia to help its people. He believed that perseverance was necessary. He worked long and hard for the goal of creating a Marxist state in Russia. Trotsky also believed that Josef Stalin had abandoned Marxism and was directing the USSR into a one ruler State. That State would be controlled by Stalin.
Leon Trotsky was not the leader of the USSR because he was exiled from the country (but first the Communist Party) by Joseph Stalin. Stalin used a divide and conquer strategy, allying himself with other political figures to outnumber Trotsky.
Vladimir Lenin and Leon Trotsky.
Leon Trotsky posed a threat to Joseph Stalin's hold on the power in Russia after Lenin's death. Many Bolshevik leaders supported Trotsky's philosophy of "permanent revolution" while others supported Stalin's policy of "socialism in one country." Stalin allied himself with Grigory Zinoviev and Lev Kamenev against Trotsky and eventually had enough people loyal to him to expel Trotsky from the Communist Party. Trotsky continued to criticize Stalin and tried to line up support against Stalin. Stalin knew the only way to completely eliminate Trotsky as a rival would be to get him out of the country entirely, so Trotsky was exiled to Turkey.Trotsky was exiled because of his opposition to Stalin.The excuse Stalin gave for the exile of Trotsky was that he did not go to Lenins funeral-but Stalin idid not invite him to the funeral.
Trotsky was going to rule but still,Stalin took over.Marx on the other hand lived a long time away from the Russian revolution...so...there you have it.
