The Collapse of Communism

There were many factors that led to the fall of communism but the main ones were the greed and corruption that it caused. Under Communism, Millions of soviet citizens were executed because they failed to follow the rules that were made. Also the leader of the soviets, Stalin was trying to convince his country as well as Eastern Europe that Communism was the right thing and he tried to force people to accept that but he only made things worse. The fall of the Berlin Wall was necedssary because the exile it caused between East and West Germany was tearing the country apart and the only way to end it was to bring the Wall down. The fall of the Soviets marked the end of Communism for Eastern Europe and that is why it was so important.
