Victim

Ukrainians that had own farms that produced grain.
Also the people that were homeless and had been starving throught this time



What Happen?

The Ukrainian Famine or Holodomor was a very unknown genocide, but yet intriguing of the many genocides. The leader of the soviet union Vladimir Lenin had wanted to cause a famine in Ukrainian to the people that wanted to seek independence from his rule in 1917. He had done this because had wanted to get the food from the Ukrainians farming areas to feed the hungary in the Soviets country. So Joseph Stalin had perished the farming area of about 7,000,000 Ukrainians.  And as he done that the Ukrainians were losing a great amount of and a drought had became a factor in Ukraine.  If any of the children, women, or man would caught taking any grain would be executed or deported.


How did it end?
It been believed that it had ended because there were a loss of too many people, but there was no real reason or theory that was proof of anything why it had ended





What happened to those responsible?
Some of the people had been arrested for going to far and trying to get more then they were allowed. Most of the people did not get anything for what they were doing because it was mostly the fault of Stalin and his act of taking the grain form the Ukrainians and starving about 25 percent of the population.





What happened to those who were attacked

They had lost a lot of grain and many other foods that they needed for themselves. This had happened because they have the largest agricultural area. The rate of killing was 17 per minute, 1,000 per hour, and 25,000 per day.



Is it a "recognized" genocide?

No, because they leaders of the Soviet Union had kept everything that they were doing quiet and kept it away from the government because they did not want any publicity. If they were to have the publicity they would look bad for what they were doing because it was wrong to do it to a country that had a lot of starving people.
