The Decree on Land (Russian: Декретъ о землѣ), written by Vladimir Lenin, was passed by the Second All-Russian Congress of Soviets of Workers' and Soldiers' 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.[1] 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 All-Russian Congress of Soviets, "The Fundamental Law of Land Socialization".[2] These decrees were amended by the 1922 Land Code.
