The ENTIRE History of the Soviet Union in 10 Minutes

A sealed train, a hunting lodge and a country that vanished overnight. How did the Soviet Union rise, and how did it disappear without a war? This is the entire history of the Soviet Union in 10 minutes, from the 1917 revolution to the final flag lowering in 1991. In this full story explained, we follow the USSR from the last tsars and Lenin through Stalin, the Great Terror, World War Two, the Cold War, Sputnik, Chernobyl, and Gorbachev, all the way to the December 1991 collapse and how Russians remember it today. We test the myths, hear what supporters and critics each say, and remember the real people behind the history, including peasants, prisoners, soldiers, and families who waited in bread lines. It is a Soviet Union history for anyone who wants the whole picture in one sitting.
