The Collapse of Communism


Well the collapse of communism, started to happen when Eastern bloc are as you can say Warsaw Pact because it was form by Warsaw Pact. Eastern Bloc started to reject communism. After awhile, alittle bit to the end, the breakdown of the Soviet Union happened by reforms and democratic revolutions. And in 1985, Mikhail Gorbachev became the leader of the Soviet Union and he relaxed Communist strictures with the reform policies of "glasnost and perestroika". And next thing you would know the Soviet Union did not involve nations, for example Poland, East Germany, Romania, Bulgaria, Romania, Czechslovakia and more countries abandoned the communism government. And in East Germany, people forced that the old Stalinist government to no longer exist and then the new president of East Germany decided to agree on free elections and also on November 9, 1989 the President of East Germany wanted to have the demolition of the Berlin Wall. After awhile the USSR didn't exist anymore and now became as Russia.
