Throughout the ages, between the alternating changes of history, countless regimes have risen and fallen. Although it is an immutable truth that prosperity and decline, some dynasties can stand for hundreds of years without falling, and some regimes will quickly disappear in just a few decades. And there must be a certain reason behind the demise of a state power.
Since the establishment of the Soviet regime in 1922, this federal state has flourished and quickly become a world power, which has made the United States fearful. However, in just 69 years, the Soviet Union completely collapsed. Throughout the history of the Soviet Union, it can be found that the relationship between successive leaders is intricate, and those who stand behind the "neglect" will always bring a heavy blow.
Multiplayer domination, battle for power
After Lenin's death, Stalin became the leader of the Soviet Union, and he was also an important figure who pushed the Soviet Union to glory. In fact, during Lenin's lifetime, there was no Stalin among the ideal heirs, because Stalin's "roughness" made him unfit to become the leader of a communist country.
But even though Lenin was not "optimistic" about Stalin, he was mentally weak due to physical reasons, and after his death, Stalin, who was not optimistic, finally succeeded in "ascending to the throne." Later developments were also as Lenin expected, Stalin made the Soviet Union stronger, but also brought chaos to the Soviet Union, and was called "tyrant" by some. Stalin's achievements cannot be denied, but it is also true that he dealt a heavy blow to the Soviet Union.
After Stalin's death, the Soviet Union entered a period of common rule by many people, and there is no doubt that this situation created a power game, and the power struggle between several "big men" began. In the end, the winner of this power struggle was Khrushchev, who was also not "optimistic" before.
Yellow Sparrow in the back, Khrushchev's ambitions
Khrushchev initially supported Stalin's rivals, but later the other side was obviously inferior, and Khrushchev resolutely "abandoned the dark and turned to the light" and threw himself into Stalin's command. But Stalin reused Khrushchev but did not regard him as his heir, and before Stalin's death, the "favorite" candidates for the next leader were Malenkov and Beria, who did not even regard Khrushchev as competitors.
Later, stalin died, the people divided powers, Malenkov and Beria fought each other, and Khrushchev still had no sense of existence. Khrushchev's covert operation upset the balance between Ma and Bey, Andbel was arrested and Malenkov "won." However, after the praying mantis catches cicadas and the yellow finches, Malenkov did not successfully become the next leader, but was easily "solved" by Khrushchev.
The reason why Khrushchev united with Malenkov against Beria was because Malenkov had little political experience and was better able to "deal with it." After Beria stepped down, Khrushchev no longer hid his ambitions and refuted the policies of boycotting Malenkov. At the same time, the Marshal of the Soviet Union, Zhukov, was pulled into his own camp, and Malenkov realized that he was not an opponent, and for the protection of Mingzhe, he took the initiative to choose "retirement", away from the soviet political center circle, and went to a power plant to become a factory director.
Both of its biggest rivals were out, and Khrushchev naturally became the supreme leader of the Soviet Union. During Khrushchev's reign, he attached great importance to the development of science and technology, so that the Soviet Union's science and technology, especially in aerospace science and technology, achieved development and achievements that attracted global attention. There is no doubt that this is the merit of Khrushchev, but he is similar to Stalin, a controversial figure, and his aggressive pursuit of success and the total denial of Stalin are the main reasons why he has been criticized by later generations.
The cycle repeats, the "betrayal" of the confidant
Khrushchev vigorously promoted reform and completely repudiated Stalin, although his starting point was for the development of the Soviet Union, but such a blind opposition to the previous leaders was not advisable. Stalin, though controversial, could not deny his merits. Under his leadership, the Soviet Union successfully achieved the transition to an industrial society, which was of great significance to the Soviets. Khrushchev's total negation would shake the Soviet people's faith and confuse their thinking, which would have a major impact on society.
Fate is like a reincarnation, the cycle begins again and again, when Khrushchev exhausted all kinds of means in order to "ascend to the throne", at that time he certainly did not expect that he would step down because of the means of others, just like Beria and Malenkov who lost to himself. Brezhnev was only reused after Khrushchev came to power, and it can be said that he was a "confidant" of Khrushchev's hand, but later he gathered forces and launched a coup d'état to pull Khrushchev out of power.
Brezhnev's reign pushed the Soviet Union's military strength to its peak, making it a military superpower. But Brezhnev also had merit, he denied Khrushchev, later engaged in a cult of personality, extremely conservative in the economy, and once brought the Soviet economy to a standstill.
knot? language:
After Brezhnev, the Soviet Union changed its leadership several times until it finally disintegrated. Similarly, these leaders all opposed their predecessors to a greater or lesser extent, and the leaders' ideological and development policies were always very different from those of the previous one, and over time Soviet society fell into chaos and its rapid disintegration was expected.
