Eastern Bloc

In November 1989 there were protests for democracy in several Eastern Bloc countries, such as Poland, Hungary, and Czechoslovakia. Mikhail Gorbachev, General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, allowed the nations to leave the bloc, with the Soviet Union splitting up, and the Berlin Wall being pulled down.
