How Did Stalin Kill People

In total forty million people died in this massacre. The first people rounded up were the Trotskyites. This massacre matters because forty innocent million people died.

Nearly a million people were executed by firing squad in the period 1936 - 1939, and millions more were arrested and sent off to prison or labor camps, where most of them died. Stalin personally ordered the trials of about 44,000 and signed thousands of deaths warrants. But he also ends early release from work camps for good behavior. Seven million purges were in the labour/ death camps, also hundreds of thousands have been slaughtered. In the worst for example there was a camp called Kolyma gold-mining region in the Arctic, the survival rate was just two or three percent. Arrest from 1937-1938 was about seven million, executed about one million, died in camps about two million, in prison late 1938 about one million, in camps late 1938 about eight million.
