- The "velvet revolutions" and changes of government taking place in Eastern European countries are becoming increasingly important. The disintegration of the USSR towards the end of the 1980s and its immediate elimination from the world political scene meant the final chords for the communist regimes of the Eastern European countries under the influence of this great state. States such as Poland, Czechoslovakia, and Yugoslavia either underwent a change of government or split into smaller states. The Western media called these revolutions the "Autumn of Nations" and made great efforts to present it as a celebration of democracy. We will take a brief look at the "velvet" revolutions that have taken place in these countries.
