Collapse of Communism
The collapse of Communism happened because of the fact that places in the Soviet Union started to revolt. Another reason for the collapse is because for the fact that capitalism started to come into the country. This divided the country in half, and those who were encouraged by capitalism, started to look for higher paying jobs. The reason why is because farmers don't get as much money as those in higher paying jobs, this ruined the economy because they had to work harder for more money then they would get if they were in communism. This would cause the people to get angry at communism because of the fact that they ere getting less money in communist society rather then a capitalist society. Statues were torn down as a result, meanwhile, people in both countries knew that there weren't going to be an attack because of missiles, this theory of missiles blowing up was called MAD or mutually assured destruction. People were terrified because of the fact that nuclear war could have resulted from all of this, and the whole world would have been ceaselessly and mercilessly obliterated for no real reason. After the fall of communism, the people in Germany started to take down something that had blocked families and relatives from each other for such a long time. They started to tear down the Berlin wall because of the fact that they wanted top get across to the other side, and they had not been to the other side for about 28 years. This was the official sign that the communist reign of the now Russia was over.
