Who can tell me everything about the Soviet Siberian concentration camp?

Gulag is the administrative department of the Soviet labor camp, directly under NKVD (People's Internal Affairs Committee: нквд, народныйкои). It is Russian. With the passage of time, the gulag is widely understood as a symbol of the labor reform system of the whole Soviet Union.

According to documents declassified by Russian authorities, there are at most 476 independent concentration camps in the Soviet Union, and each concentration camp consists of thousands of smaller punishment camps at most. Among them, the most famous are those concentration camps scattered in the Arctic Circle. Thanks to their existence, the "Arctic Industrial City" of modern Russia has emerged.

During the thirty-four years from 1929 to 1953, at least14 million people were imprisoned in the gulag, and more than 7 million Soviet citizens were exiled to the reclamation areas of the Soviet Union. During the transformation of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the former Soviet Union into the Russian National Security Agency, a large number of documents about Gulag were declassified, some of which accurately counted the number of prisoners held in Gulag in different periods: 1934, the number of prisoners serving their sentences in Gulag was about 510307; The number of prisoners 1953 surged to about 1 727,970. It should be pointed out that although some Soviet political prisoners were assigned to the gulag concentration camp, most of the prisoners held in gulag were not political prisoners. Any Soviet citizen may be arrested and exiled to a concentration camp for absenteeism, theft or making anti-government jokes. Among them, 2.6 million cases were tried by the Russian secret police of the former Soviet Union. Although the scale of concentration camps in the former Soviet Union was greatly reduced after Stalin's death in 1953, according to official archives, labor camps still existed until the Gorbachev era.
