This is a lot of detail of interest only to academics. But the main lesson is simple: even after decades in which to develop an effective economy, the new Russian empire, hobbled by an obsession with control, failed to do so, hence its decline into irrelevance.

Yeah, I don’t think it was great that the western allies brought Stalin into this, but Roosevelt was really naïve about that and they thought they would need soviet, help defeating Japan, but I don’t think so because they were working on the nuclear bomb and a land invasion would’ve taken longer and would’ve killed probably guessing nine or 10 million Japanese or more in addition to 1.5 million soldiers and nuclear bombs killed somewhere around 200,000 or 300,000 and either way it was bad butthat nuclear fallout was nowhere near what occurred in Chernobyl

[@castlerock58]

It was what the Bolsheviks called Russia after the Russian Revolution and when they won the Russian civil war. That is why everyone used Russia and Soviet Union to refer to the same country. The way the Bolsheviks set up their internal subdivisions with Republics and oblasts was largely arbitrary. They intended all power to be in Moscow. It was not a real federation like the US or Canada. Talking about the history of the Soviet Union is just talking about Russia during the time the communists controlled it. It is a period of Russian history like Napoleon's rule is a period of French history.
