A. the government collapsed B. the Soviet Union fought a war against Germany C. the population grew faster than was expected D. the country bought land from the United States, doubling its size

Answer 1

The answer is; A

The satellites countries (such as Poland, Latvia, Ukraine, Georgia, Ludhiana, and etcetera) were formed after the collapse of the Soviet Union during the Cold War. Russia is the main country considered the former Soviet Union. The collapse of the Union is due to complexities that are attributed to its authoritarian form of government. Therefore, its collapse implicitly indicated a win for democracy over dictatorship.
