Tatar Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic
The Tatar Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic, abbreviated as Tatar ASSR, Tatarstan ASSR or TASSR, was an autonomous republic of the Russian SFSR. The resolution for its creation was signed on 27 May 1920 and the republic was proclaimed on 25 June 1920. Kazan served as its capital.
The territory of the TASSR was a part of Kazan, Simbirsk, and Ufa Governorates (or gubernias) of the Imperial Russia before the October Revolution of 1917.

In 1921, the republic, like the adjacent Volga region, was struck by a drought that caused mass famine. To combat it, in 1921–22 the Tatar Republic received more than 8 million poods of seeds and 6 million poods of various food supplies from other regions of the country.
After the end of the Civil War, the restoration of the autonomous republic’s national economy began.
During the 1920s and 1930s, industrialisation took place throughout the Soviet Union. The Autonomous Tatar ASSR transitioned from a predominantly agrarian economy to an agrarian-industrial one. Old enterprises underwent major reconstruction, and new plants and factories were established. The industry of the Tatar ASSR developed at a rate exceeding the average industrial growth of both the RSFSR and the USSR. During the first Five-Year Plans, the largest machine-building, chemical, and light-industry enterprises in the autonomy were constructed. The number of workers grew, and national personnel were trained. Whereas in 1921 there were only 3,100 Tatar workers, technicians, and engineers at large enterprises (15.5%), by 1932 their number had risen to 16,400 (33.6%).
However, the republic’s only industrial hub (apart from the “Krasny Metallist” plant and the Bondyuzhsky chemical plant) was the capital, Kazan. In 1932, construction began there on the large aviation complex “Kazmash.”
At the same time, the collectivization of agriculture in the autonomy was carried out. In 1930, the first Machine Tractor Station (MTS) in the autonomy — Nurlat-Oktyabrskaya — was established. During the first Five-Year Plans, mechanization advanced so rapidly that for its achievements in agricultural development, Tatarstan was awarded the Order of Lenin on January 3, 1934.
