Answer:
The Decree on Land, written by Vladimir Lenin, was passed by the Second Congress of Soviets of Workers', Soldiers', and Peasants' Deputies on 8 November [O.S. 26 October] 1917, following the success of the October Revolution.
It decreed an abolition of private property, and the redistribution of the landed estates amongst the peasantry. According to the Decree on Land, the peasants had seized the lands of the nobility, monasteries and Church. This decree was followed on February 19, 1918, by a decree of the Central Executive Committee of the Congress of Soviets, "The Fundamental Law of Land Socialization".[1] These decrees were amended by the 1922 Land Code.
