> Lenin was a member of the nobility during the Tsar rule.

This is not true at all. Where is your source for this claim?

His father was a school inspector and was promoted to a rank equivalent to a mayor. Not nobility as you or I might imagine it.

Paragraph about his father from wikipedia:

>he was promoted to Director of Public Schools for the province, overseeing the foundation of over 450 schools as a part of the government's plans for modernisation. In January 1882, his dedication to education earned him the Order of Saint Vladimir, which bestowed on him the status of hereditary nobleman.
