The majority of Gulag prisoners are not skilled workers. More than 18 million prisoners entered Gulag and represented various occupations. This means that people who were once a niche worker or a white-collar worker suddenly forced themselves into devastated physical labor. Just being the result of arbitrary arrest to meet the demand for slave labor required by Stalin and his inner heart, many people are innocent of any crime.

While the doctors, educators, factory workers, craftsmen, farmers, soldiers, students, artists, writers were arrested and sent to criminal colonies on an ongoing basis, the size of the prison population and the size of the Gulag system is divided into four different periods It will significantly expand and expand. The camp needs to act according to the place. For example, a camp in the forest dropped a tree from a prisoner, but a camp near tin and other alloy sediments forces the prisoner to extract metal.

Five political prisons have an estimated 80,000 to 120,000 people. Among these cities are large sizes, five times the Nazi concentration camps and twice the size of the Soviet-Glagos. Many of the people detained in these camps have never committed a crime, but are related to people who are said to have caused political crime. They often do not know what the crime is, even children born at refugee camps are imprisoned as prisoners for their "blood". Forced labor, brutal beatings, and death are commonplace. The administration denied the existence of these refugee camps, but former guards and satellite images confirmed the testimony of several survivors.
