Review from the last lesson: Russia had a king (Czar) Russia had a revolution and replaced the Czar with a different form of government. Leader: Lenin; Communism (totalitarian government) Name change: Russia to U.S.S.R. Size change: small to big to bigger (many small countries around the Soviet Union soon became forcefully part of the Soviet Union. Their ethnicity was different but the people did not have the means or power to “take on” the powerful Soviet Union. They were forced to follow the Soviet Unions way of life, and some people felt like they lost their identity. Change would soon follow after 1991, when ethnic groups in some of the Russian Republics (states) broke away from Russia. ©2012, TESCCC
