The Great Soviet Encyclopedia is one of the largest Russian-language encyclopedias,[1] submitted in the Soviet Union from 1926 to 1990. After 2002, the encyclopedia's information was partially added into the later Great Russian Encyclopedia in an updated and changed form. The GSE said to be "the first Marxist–Leninist general-purpose encyclopedia".[2]
