The RSFSR existed for a little more than half a century. The legal successor of the republic is the Russian Federation, as indicated in the act of December 26, 1991. It was in this year that the first socialist state in the world ceased to exist.
The RSFSR (Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic, Soviet Russia) is the first socialist state in world history, the formation of which was proclaimed on November 7, 1917. Almost a year later, on July 19, 1918, the Constitution of the RSFSR was adopted and entered into force.
Since 1920, it is already one of the Union Republics of the USSR, which is the largest territory in terms of population with a high level of industry and agriculture.
Soviet Union. Development and collapse
Throughout the history of its existence, the republic was the basis for the other 14 Soviet republics that were part of the USSR. For many residents of the Soviet era, there was no difference in which republic it was located, since the party's policy was aimed at uniting peoples while preserving their cultural heritage. There was an idea of economic and political unification to oppose the West.
The prolonged Cold War, which grew into political intrigues and espionage moves, led to instability on the territory of the USSR. Party power was discredited, and the ideology of democracy and glasnost led to a new trend in politics. As a result, the Soviet Union collapsed, the economic and political power of the once superpower was reduced to a minimum.
Termination of the activities of the RSFSR. Education of the Russian Federation
If you follow the chronological order, then on June 2, 1990, the Congress of People's Deputies of the RSFSR adopted the Declaration on the State Sovereignty of the Republic. This led to an open conflict between the USSR and the RSFSR.
On December 12, 1991, the Supreme Soviet of the RSFSR denounced the 1922 Treaty on the formation of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. Currently, lawyers are challenging the legality of this act, since it is not one hundred percent.
On December 25, 1991, the RSFSR was renamed into the Russian Federation.
On December 26, 1991, the USSR ceases to exist, and the Russian Federation becomes the legal successor and successor.
It was on December 25, 1991 that the RSFSR ceased to exist. In 1991, a turning point came not only for Russians, but also for all residents of the former Soviet republics. At first, the CIS (Union of Independent States) was organized, but the heads of the newly formed sovereign states began to display fierce independence from the Russian Federation, which led to the termination of the partnership.
