*The legendary anthem was adopted during the reign of V. Stalin's. The used flag is also from that time in this form it was used from (1936-1955).
During the Stalin era, the Soviet Union became a world power.
The anthem was first published on 7 November 1943. It was played for the first time on Soviet radio at midnight on 1 January 1944, and officially adopted on 15 March the same year. The new lyrics had three refrains following three different stanzas. In each refrain, the second line was modified to refer to friendship, then happiness, then glory. Joseph Stalin and the Soviet Union's war against Germany were originally invoked in the second and third verses, respectively. Reportedly, Stalin was opposed to including his name in the lyrics but relented after some Politburo members insisted.
Post-Stalin era
With the process of de-Stalinization after Stalin's death, the lyrics referring to him were considered unacceptable, and from 1956 to 1977 the anthem was performed without lyrics.[citation needed] A notable exception took place at the 1976 Canada Cup ice hockey tournament, where singer Roger Doucet insisted on performing the anthem with lyrics after consultations with Russian studies scholars from Université de Montréal and Soviet team officials.In 1977, to coincide with the 60th anniversary of the October Revolution, revised lyrics, written in 1970 by original author Sergey Mikhalkov, were adopted. The varying refrains were replaced by a uniform refrain after all stanzas, and the line praising Stalin was dropped, as were the lines referring to the Great Patriotic War. Another notable change was the replacement of a line referring to the Soviet national flag with one citing the Communist Party of the Soviet Union in the form of "Partiya Lenina" (The party of Lenin). These lyrics were also present in the original party anthem at the same place in the melody, but followed by the lyrics "Partiya Stalina" (The party of Stalin).

The Russian [Soviet] republics, in freedom united, Have mustered their power, their glory, their pride,
And thus they created the great Soviet Union, The will of the nations that spread far and wide!
Great shall your glory be, motherland proud and free, Bulwark of friendship for nation and man!
Flag of the Soviets, lead us to victory, Flag of the people since freedom began!

The sunlight of freedom has shone through the tempest, And Lenin has lighted our path with his flame,
While Stalin has shown us that faith in the people Inspires us to action, deeds, and fame.
Great shall your glory be, motherland proud and free, Bulwark of friendship for nation and man!
Flag of the Soviets, lead us to victory, Flag of the people since freedom began!
