Soviet Union

From Metapedia

The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR), also called the Soviet Union, was the first major Communist government which existed in Eurasia from 1922 to 1991. It was often incorrectly referred to as Russia after its largest and dominant constituent state.

How it came into existence, 1917

At the begin of 1917 both leaders of the Russian revolution stayed abroad. Lenin, the political agitator fruitless in his native country till then, lived in Switzerland, Trotzki, alias Bronstein, in the USA. Two extremely capable, although widely impecunious political adventurers. At a time, because the USA and Germany were war opponents, the first received official help from German, the second of American side.

Max Warburg was a board of directors Rothschild / Warburg bank in Frankfurt and at the same time boss of the German Secret Service.

His brother Paul Warburg, main author of the Federal was a reserve Act and leading head of the FED.

Max Warburg organised as a boss of the German Secret Service, the back transport Lenins together with other Russian revolutionaries in secure railway carriage from neutral Switzerland through Germany to Sweden. With about six million US dollars in gold Max Warburg laid the foundation-stone for the revolutionary cash. Lenin and his comrades achieved St. Petersburg in April, 1917.

Trotzki had been arrested because of revolutionary machinations under the czar twice, and both times had been able to flee from the banishment. Since 1907 he lived in exile. In January, 1917 the revolutionary Trotzki was a guest of Jakob Schiff, the representative of the European Rothschild banks in New York and the boss of Kuhn, Loeb Co., the bank house of Paul Warburg. With immense financial support and with 275 ruthless emigrants who had been trained in New Jersey on the area by Rockefeller's standard Oil Company in subversion and terror, Trotzki was sent on a chartered ship to Russia. Hundreds of other Russian speaking mainly Jewish agitators from New York followed. Trotzki reached the Russian native country in May and became the real organizer of the October revolution.^[1]

History

From 1945 until its dissolution in 1991 — a period known as the Cold War—the Soviet Union and the United States of America were the two world superpowers that dominated the global agenda of economic policy, foreign affairs, military operations, cultural exchange, scientific advancements including the pioneering of space exploration, and sports (including the Olympic Games and various world championships).

The USSR was born and expanded as a union of Soviet republics formed within the territory of the Czarist Russian Empire overthrown by the Russian Revolution of 1917 followed by the Russian Civil War of 1918–1921. The geographic boundaries of the Soviet Union varied with time, but after the last major territorial annexations and occupation of the Baltic states (Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia), eastern Poland, Bessarabia, and certain other territories during World War II, from 1945 until dissolution the boundaries approximately corresponded to those of late Imperial Russia, with the notable exclusions of Poland, most of Finland, and Alaska.

The stone age terror system of the Soviet Union became the primary model for future Communist states during the Cold War; the government and the political organization of the country were defined by the only political party, the Communist Party of the Soviet Union.

Initially established as a union of four Soviet Socialist Republics, the USSR grew to contain 15 constituent or "union republics" by 1956: Armenian SSR, Azerbaijan SSR, Byelorussian SSR, Estonian SSR, Georgian SSR, Kazakh SSR, Kyrgyz SSR, Latvian SSR, Lithuanian SSR, Moldavian SSR, Russian SFSR, Tajik SSR, Turkmen SSR, Ukrainian SSR, and Uzbek SSR.[2] (From annexation of Estonian SSR on August 6, 1940 up to reorganisation of Karelo-Finnish SSR into Karelian ASSR on July 16, 1956, the official count of "union republics" was 16.) The republics were part of a highly centralized federal union that was dominated by the Russian SFSR.
