1928 & {\bf{Introduction of the First Five-Year Plan}}: Joseph Stalin launches the First Five-Year Plan, aiming to rapidly industrialize the Soviet Union and collectivize agriculture. This plan emphasizes heavy industry and requires significant grain exports to fund industrialization. \tn 
% Row Count 8 (+ 8)
% Row 1
\SetRowColor{white}
1929 & {\bf{Forced Collectivization Begins}}: The Soviet government accelerates the process of collectivizing agriculture. Peasants are forced to surrender their land, livestock, and produce to collective farms (kolkhozes). This causes widespread resistance, especially in Ukraine, where many peasants destroy their own grain and livestock rather than give them up. \tn 
% Row Count 18 (+ 10)
% Row 2
\SetRowColor{LightBackground}
 & {\bf{Dekulakization Campaign}}: Stalin initiates a campaign to eliminate kulaks (wealthier peasants) as a class. Thousands of kulaks are arrested, exiled, or executed, leading to chaos in the agricultural sector. \tn 
% Row Count 24 (+ 6)
% Row 3
\SetRowColor{white}
1930 & {\bf{ 2 March}}: Stalin publishes an article, "Dizzy with Success," blaming local officials for excessive zeal in collectivization and temporarily halting the process. This is a tactical retreat to calm unrest. \tn

Spring 1932 & {\bf{Worsening Grain Shortages}}: The effects of forced collectivization, coupled with bad weather, lead to a significant drop in grain production. Despite this, the Soviet government continues to demand high grain quotas from Ukraine. \tn 
% Row Count 8 (+ 8)
% Row 1
\SetRowColor{white}
Summer 1932 & {\bf{Starvation Begins}}: As the grain requisition quotas are enforced, peasants begin to starve. In some areas, resistance to requisitioning is met with violence, and local authorities are replaced with more loyal Soviet officials. \tn 
% Row Count 16 (+ 8)
% Row 2
\SetRowColor{LightBackground}
7 August 1932 & {\bf{Law of "Five Ears of Grain"}}: Stalin's government passes a decree known as the "Law of Five Ears of Grain," making it a criminal offense (punishable by death or 10 years imprisonment) to take even a small amount of grain from collective farms. This law is ruthlessly enforced in Ukraine, worsening the famine. \tn 
% Row Count 27 (+ 11)

September 1932 & {\bf{Increased Grain Quotas}}: Despite the already dire situation, the Soviet government increases Ukraine's grain requisition quotas. This leaves little to no grain for the peasants themselves, sealing their fate. \tn
