For much of the 20th century, the Soviet Union dominated world politics—a nuclear-armed superpower locked in a global struggle with the United States. But how did the USSR rise from a revolution to become a feared empire, and why did it collapse so suddenly?

This audiobook takes you deep into the rise, rule, and fall of the Soviet Empire, uncovering its greatest triumphs and most devastating failures. Discover:

✅ How Lenin and Stalin built the Soviet state from revolution

✅ The Soviet Union’s role in World War II and the Cold War

✅ The brutal realities of the KGB, the Gulag system, and state control

✅ Why the Soviet economy collapsed—and how Gorbachev’s reforms sealed its fate

The Soviet Empire – How It Rose and Collapsed is a must-listen for history lovers, Cold War enthusiasts, and anyone fascinated by the forces that shaped the modern world.
