Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The Empire That Shook the World. The Collapse That Changed It Forever.In 1917, a small band of revolutionaries seized power in Russia and proclaimed the birth of a new world order. Seventy-four years later, in a moment no one predicted, the red flag was lowered over the Kremlin for the last t…ime - and the Soviet Union ceased to exist.What happened in between is one of the most extraordinary stories in human history.Soviet Union: A Complete History of the Communist Revolution, Cold War, and Collapse of the Russian Empire is the definitive account of the rise and fall of the world's most powerful communist state. From Lenin's ruthless seizure of power to Stalin's reign of terror, from the heroic sacrifice of World War II to the nuclear brinkmanship of the Cold War, from Khrushchev's thaw to Gorbachev's fateful gamble - this is the full, unvarnished story of an empire that reshaped the world and then vanished almost overnight.Inside, you'll discover: - How a collapsing empire and a single night in October gave rise to the Soviet state- The true scale of Stalin's terror - the purges, the Gulag, and the engineered famines that killed millions- How the Soviet Union emerged from World War II as a global superpower and plunged the world into four decades of Cold War tension- The secret lives of ordinary Soviet citizens - what they believed, how they survived, and what they dared not say- Why Gorbachev's reforms, meant to save the Soviet Union, instead triggered its final collapse- The dramatic events of August 1991 - and the quiet moment when the flag came down for the last timeWritten with the pace of a thriller and the authority of rigorous historical research, this sweeping narrative brings the Soviet era to life in vivid, human detail - from the corridors of the Kremlin to the frozen camps of Siberia, from the Cuban Missile Crisis to the crumbling Berlin Wall.Whether you're a lifelong student of history or coming to this subject for the first time, Soviet Union delivers a complete, compelling, and unforgettable account of the country that vanished - and the world it left behind.The red flag rose in revolution. It fell in silence. This is everything that happened in between.
