The USSR fell completely because of an ill-timed, failed military coup. Communism would have ended even if the union had remained together. Gorbachev had a plan to convert the SSRs into things more closely resembling our states. The name was to change to "The Union of Soviet Sovereign Republics" so that the acronyms would hold in both languages (USSR, CCCP, SU). Before the coup, nine of the remaining SSRs were in favor of this change. After, they feared that the military might try again and steal back control, so they left the union using the exit clause. I might add, that even the iron-fisted Soviet Union provided a legal means for the members to leave. This is something none of our states in the "land of the free" are allowed to do. |
