    What was one of the Causes of the Soviet Union?

    • The Failure to recognize and acknowledge a more interdependent world

    • The prices went up so they could not supply their troops

    • The Germany residents fought back to gain pride

    • None of the above

    • All of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. The Failure to recognize and acknowledge a more interdependent world
    Explanation
    The Soviet Union's failure to recognize and acknowledge a more interdependent world can be seen as one of the causes of its downfall. The Soviet Union operated under a closed, centralized economic system, which hindered its ability to adapt to changing global dynamics. By not acknowledging the importance of interconnectedness and failing to engage in international trade and cooperation, the Soviet Union isolated itself and fell behind economically and technologically. This lack of recognition and adaptation ultimately contributed to the decline and eventual dissolution of the Soviet Union.

    • 1929

    Correct Answer
    A. 1921
    Explanation
    The New Economic Policy was put into place in 1921. This policy was implemented by the Soviet Union as a response to the economic crisis that followed the Russian Revolution. It aimed to reintroduce some elements of capitalism in order to revive the economy. The policy allowed for limited private enterprise, foreign trade, and the introduction of a new currency. It was seen as a temporary measure to stabilize the economy and was eventually replaced by more centralized economic planning under Joseph Stalin in the late 1920s.
