{{Expand language|topic=|langcode=ja|otherarticle=世界四大文明|date=June 2024}}&lt;br /&gt;
In [[Japanese historiography|Japanese]] and [[Chinese historiography]], the {{nihongo|&#039;&#039;&#039;Four Great Ancient Civilizations&#039;&#039;&#039;|世界四大文明|Sekai yon dai bunmei|lead=yes}} ({{Lang-zh|t=四大文明古國|s=四大文明古国|p=Sì Dà Wénmíng Gǔ Guó}}) were [[ancient Egypt|Egypt]], [[Ancient Near East|Mesopotamia]], [[Ancient India|India]], and [[Ancient China|China]], which are identified as the [[Cradle of civilization|cradles of civilization]]. The concept is popularly used in Japan and China—for example in history [[Textbook|textbooks]]—but not generally known in the [[western world]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite journal |last=川尻 |first=文彦 |date=2010-03-25 |title=近代中国における「文明」――明治日本の学術と梁啓超 |trans-title=The Reformulation of Concepts and Intellectual Systems in Modern East Asia |url=https://nichibun.repo.nii.ac.jp/records/2494 |journal=東アジア近代における概念と知の再編成 |language=ja |volume=35 |page=154 |doi=10.15055/00002488}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Origin ==&lt;br /&gt;
The origins of the phrase are unclear.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:0&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite journal |last=川尻 |first=文彦 |date=2010-03-25 |title=近代中国における「文明」――明治日本の学術と梁啓超 |url=https://nichibun.repo.nii.ac.jp/records/2494 |journal=東アジア近代における概念と知の再編成 |language=ja |volume=35 |pages=131–160}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; According to one theory, it originated with Japanese archaeologist {{Ill|Namio Egami|qid=Q11550613}}; his colleague [[Masaaki Sugiyama]] recalled that Egami used to say that he coined the phrase.&amp;lt;!-- TODO: add jawiki notes --&amp;gt; The first known occurrence of the phrase &amp;quot;four great civilizations&amp;quot; can be traced to a textbook titled {{nihongo|&#039;&#039;Revised World History&#039;&#039;|再訂世界史|Saitei sekaishi}}, published by in 1952 by the Yamakawa Publishing Company, where Egami worked.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite journal |last=淳志 |first=村井 |date=April 2009 |title=この歴史用語--誕生秘話と生育史の謎を解く--「四大文明」は江上波夫氏が発案した造語だった! |url=https://cir.nii.ac.jp/crid/1520854805104700672 |journal=社会科教育 |language=ja |volume=46 |issue=4 |pages=116–121}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another theory is that the term originates with [[Liang Qichao]], a Chinese intellectual that lived during the late [[Qing dynasty]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:0&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; Specifically, in his 1900 poem {{Ill|Song of the Pacific in the 20th Century|lt=&#039;&#039;Song of the Pacific in the 20th Century&#039;&#039;|qid=Q10880067}} ({{Lang-zh|c=二十世纪太平洋歌}}), he wrote &amp;quot;there are four motherlands of ancient civilizations on earth: China, India, Egypt, and Asia Minor&amp;quot; ({{Lang-zh|c=地球上古文明祖國有四：中國、印度、埃及、小亞細亞是也}}).&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:0&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;!-- TODO: add jawiki note --&amp;gt; This view of civilization was also influenced by Japanese thinkers such as Fukuzawa Yukichi, Ukita Zautami and Kayahara Kazan, who in turn were influenced by the western concept of a [[cradle of civilization]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite journal |last=石川 |first=禎浩 |date=2019-01-31 |title=中国近現代における文明史観の受容と展開 : 兼ねて「四大文明」説の由来を論ず (特集 : 文明) |url=https://repository.kulib.kyoto-u.ac.jp/dspace/handle/2433/240864 |journal=史林 |language=ja |volume=102 |issue=1 |pages=152–187 |doi=10.14989/shirin_102_152 |issn=0386-9369}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Liang Qichao divided the [[World history (field)|history of the world]] into three ages: the river age, the sea age, and the ocean age. The Four Great Ancient Civilizations originated in the river age and all of them developed along [[river]]s. Scholars believe that they were all built near rivers because there were fixed water sources that made it easier for [[agriculture]] and [[commerce]] to develop. Human beings are clearly inseparable from water, but some historians believe that at the beginning of Chinese civilization, it first occurred in the mountains and then expanded to river areas.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;「世多謂文明起源於河流，吾謂吾國文明，實先發生于山嶽。蓋吾國地居大陸，人種之生，本不限於一地，其擁部眾而施號令者，必具居高臨下之勢，始可以控制多方。...其後漸次混合，謀便交通，始有開闢河流，製作舟楫之事。此事實之次序，固可以理測度者也。」見：[https://web.archive.org/web/20101214221631/http://www.china.com.cn/book/txt/2008-11/06/content_16722475.htm 《中國文化史》（柳詒徵）第一章 中國人種之起源]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Overview ==&lt;br /&gt;
=== History ===&lt;br /&gt;
Between 7000 and 5000 years ago, in the [[Northern Hemisphere]], the [[Mesopotamia]], [[Nile]], [[Indus]], and [[Ganges]] basins, as well as the [[Yellow River]] and [[Yangtze River]] basins, successively produced the world&#039;s Four Great Ancient Civilizations. These four civilizations successively entered the [[Bronze Age]] from the [[Neolithic Age]], and then entered the [[Iron Age]]. Much of the [[philosophy]], [[science]], [[literature]], [[art]] and other aspects of knowledge that humans possess today can generally be traced back to the contributions of these ancient civilizations.{{Cn|date=September 2024}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Among the [[social]] systems of the Four Great Ancient Civilizations, Egypt and Babylon adopted [[slavery]], India implemented the [[Caste system in India|caste system]], and China adopted the [[Fengjian|feudal system]] and the [[well-field system]] before the [[Spring and Autumn period]] and the [[Warring States period]]. Each civilization had its own [[myth]]s and [[legend]]s. The state entities were born later. In ancient times, religious myths were used to strengthen monarchy. The ruler of Babylon [[Hammurabi]] claimed to be a descendant of the moon god [[Sin (mythology)|Sin]], the ancient Egyptian [[Pharaoh]] claimed to be the son of the sun god [[Ra]], the Chinese monarch claimed to be the [[Son of Heaven]], and the Indian emperor called himself [[Chakravarti (Sanskrit term)]], literally meaning: he whose wheels (of chariot) are moving,&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Four Great Ancient Civilizations all have their own [[calendar]]s, each year is divided into 12 months and has [[Intercalation (timekeeping)|leap months]]. Each civilization created its own [[writing]]. Civilizations in the Indus, Yellow and Mesopotamia river basins all used pottery wheels to make [[pottery]]. Egypt and Mesopotamia both calculated [[pi]] earlier, and China discovered the [[Pythagorean theorem]] earlier (or its practical application), while India invented Indian numerals ([[Arabic numerals]]).&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |url=http://www.stnn.cc/arts/200702/t20070201_453082.html |title=天文学家的发明 阿拉伯数字起源于印度 |access-date=2009-11-26 |archive-date=2009-11-26 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20091126133616/http://www.stnn.cc/arts/200702/t20070201_453082.html }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Background ==&lt;br /&gt;
Being the non-stop version of the Duronto train, it used to take the fewest intermediate stops for operational and technical purposes such as crew change, locomotive change, food pick-up, and water-filling. Later, most of operational (technical) stops were made commercial stops and stoppages are given in some state capitals while some state capitals are still non - stopping places.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Rake sharing ==&lt;br /&gt;
Rake sharing is done with [[Pune-Howrah Duronto Express]] (12222/12221), [[Howrah-SMVT Bengaluru AC Superfast Express]] (22863/22864), [[Santragachi-Chennai Central AC Express]] (22807/22808), with a total of five Rakes primarily maintained at [[Santragachi Junction railway station|Santragachi Coaching Depot]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;auto&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite web |last=telang |first=Kamlesh |title=12261/Mumbai CSMT - Howrah AC Duronto Express - Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus to Howrah SER/South Eastern Zone - Railway Enquiry |url=https://indiarailinfo.com/train/-train-mumbai-csmt-howrah-ac-duronto-express-12261/7555/12282/1 |access-date=2022-06-11 |website=indiarailinfo.com}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

12262 is the reverse composition of the above 12261.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

==Locomotive==&lt;br /&gt;
It previously ran with [[WAP-4]] loco of [[Electric Loco Shed, Howrah|Howrah]] but now mostly gets [[WAP-7]] loco of [[Santragachi Junction railway station|Santragachi]]. Before the conversion of Mumbai CSMT to {{stnlnk|Kasara}} from 1500 V DC to 25 kV AC, it was hauled by [[Indian locomotive class WCAM 3|WCAM-3]] of [[Kalyan Junction railway station|KYN]] shed for that section.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Speed==&lt;br /&gt;
All its coaches are air conditioned [[LHB coach]], capable of reaching 160 kmph.  There is some confusing because according to Indian Railways Permanent Way Manual (IRPWM) on the Indian Railways website or Indian Railway Institute of Civil Engineering website, the BG (Broad Gauge) lines have been classified into six groups ‘A’ to ‘E’ on the basis of the future maximum permissible speeds but it may not be same as current speed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The maximum permissible speed is 130&amp;amp;nbsp;km/h but it is less in some parts of the journey as these parts are not fit for 130&amp;amp;nbsp;km/h speed. The maximum permissible speed is 105&amp;amp;nbsp;km/h between Mumbai CSMT and Kasara &amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;auto1&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite web | url=https://indianrailways.gov.in/railwayboard/uploads/directorate/civil_engg/CE_II/2019/Raising%20of%20sectionl%20speed%20to%20130%20kmph%20%20(dated%2017_12_2019).pdf | title=Raising of sectional speed to 130 Kmph on the routes of Golden Quadrilateral and the diagonal routes | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210624195515/https://indianrailways.gov.in/railwayboard/uploads/directorate/civil_engg/CE_II/2019/Raising%20of%20sectionl%20speed%20to%20130%20kmph%20%20(dated%2017_12_2019).pdf | archive-date=2021-06-24 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; where increasing up to 110 kmph in future is planned,&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[https://indianexpress.com/article/india/mission-raftaar-central-railway-to-increase-speed-limit-on-seven-key-routes-reduce-travel-time-by-four-hours-5215091/ Mission Raftaar: Central Railway to increase speed limit on seven key routes, reduce travel time by four hours]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; 60&amp;amp;nbsp;km/h between Kasara and Igatpuri,&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;auto1&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; either speed will be increased to 130&amp;amp;nbsp;km/h from 110 kmph very soon or speed has already been increased recently like which has done for some trains earlier on Igatpuri - Nashik - Bhusaval - Akola - Badnera route.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web | url=https://cr.indianrailways.gov.in/view_detail.jsp?lang=0&amp;amp;id=0,4,268&amp;amp;dcd=8945&amp;amp;did=1700126878932B234318161F276C4447D5B3B95A2E5E1 | title=Central Railway infra works lead to speeding up of trains - 12 trains now running at 130 kmph on the Igatpuri-Bhusaval-Badnera section| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231123172640/https://cr.indianrailways.gov.in/view_detail.jsp?lang=0&amp;amp;id=0,4,268&amp;amp;dcd=8945&amp;amp;did=1700126878932B234318161F276C4447D5B3B95A2E5E1 | archive-date=2023-11-23}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; 130&amp;amp;nbsp;km/h on Badnera - Wardha route,&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web | url=https://cr.indianrailways.gov.in/view_detail.jsp?lang=0&amp;amp;id=0,4,268&amp;amp;dcd=8973&amp;amp;did=1700634011477646D991B0EF7D0752FCDD24EE6B1BF1A | title=Central Railway Infrastructure Upgrades leads to Speeding up of Trains - 30 trains now running at up to 130 kmph on the Wardha-Badnera section of 95.44 km | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240615205506/https://cr.indianrailways.gov.in/view_detail.jsp?lang=0&amp;amp;id=0,4,268&amp;amp;dcd=8973&amp;amp;did=1700634011477646D991B0EF7D0752FCDD24EE6B1BF1A | archive-date=2024-06-15}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; 130 kmph between Wardha and Nagpur,&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[https://m.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=630626205916703&amp;amp;set=a.299496179029709&amp;amp;type=3 Speed meter]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web | url=https://cr.indianrailways.gov.in/view_detail.jsp?lang=0&amp;amp;dcd=8945&amp;amp;id=0,4,268 | title=&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;Satish Kumar Yadav&#039;&#039;&#039; (born 9 February 1966), also known as &#039;&#039;&#039;Satish Rai&#039;&#039;&#039;, is an Indian politician and farmer from [[Bihar]]. He represented the [[Raghopur (Vidhan Sabha constituency)|Raghopur]] constituency in the [[Bihar Legislative Assembly]] from 2010 to 2015. As of 2025, he is affiliated with the [[Bharatiya Janata Party]] (BJP).&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;myneta&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite web|title=Satish Kumar Yadav (Bharatiya Janata Party) – Constituency: Raghopur (Vaishali)|url=https://www.myneta.info/Bihar2025/candidate.php?candidate_id=1468|website=MyNeta.info|access-date=1 November 2025}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; He is also known among locals for his social work, particularly for helping poor and needy people in the region. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Early life and education ==&lt;br /&gt;
Satish Kumar Yadav was born on 9 February 1966 in Rampur Shyamchand village, Raghopur, Vaishali district, Bihar. His father, Shyam Narayan Yadav, was a farmer. He completed his post-graduation (M.Sc.) from [[Magadh University]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;myneta&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Political career ==&lt;br /&gt;
Yadav began his political career with the [[Rashtriya Janata Dal]] (RJD) and later joined the [[Janata Dal (United)]] (JDU). In the [[2010 Bihar Legislative Assembly election]], he contested from Raghopur on a JDU ticket and defeated former Chief Minister [[Rabri Devi]] by a margin of 13,006 votes.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;moneycontrol&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite web|title=बिहार चुनाव 2025: राघोपुर सीट से बीजेपी ने सतीश कुमार यादव को बनाया उम्मीदवार, तेजस्वी यादव से होगी टक्कर|url=https://hindi.moneycontrol.com/elections/vidhan-sabha-election/bihar/who-is-satish-kumar-yadav-bjp-s-candidate-from-raghopur-seat-against-tejashwi-yadav-in-bihar-elections-2025-article-2224806.html/amp|website=Moneycontrol Hindi|access-date=1 November 2025|language=hi}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Due to the JDU-RJD alliance in 2015, the Raghopur seat was allotted to RJD, and [[Tejashwi Yadav]] contested and won. Satish Kumar Yadav then joined the [[Bharatiya Janata Party]] (BJP) and contested as its candidate but lost by 22,733 votes.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;abp&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite web|title=Satish Kumar Yadav – BJP candidate from Raghopur seat: He defeated Rabri Devi, now faces Tejashwi Yadav in 2025 elections|url=https://www.abplive.com/states/bihar/satish-kumar-yadav-bjp-candidate-from-raghopur-seat-he-defeated-rabri-devi-now-fight-with-tejashwi-yadav-ann-3029550/amp|website=ABP Live|access-date=1 November 2025}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the [[2020 Bihar Legislative Assembly election]], Satish Kumar Yadav once again contested from Raghopur as a BJP candidate against [[Tejashwi Yadav]]. However, the presence of the [[Lok Janshakti Party]] (LJP) candidate divided the Rajput vote base, which led to Yadav losing by a margin of 38,174 votes.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;jagran&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite web|title=Bihar Elections 2025: राघोपुर से तेजस्वी के खिलाफ़ सतीश कुमार यादव को बीजेपी ने उतारा मैदान में|url=https://www.jagran.com/elections/bihar-vidhan-sabha-bjp-fields-satish-kumar-against-tejashwi-yadav-in-raghopur-in-bihar-elections-2025-40011139.html|website=Dainik Jagran|access-date=1 November 2025|language=hi}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the [[2025 Bihar Legislative Assembly election]], Yadav is again contesting from Raghopur as the BJP candidate against Tejashwi Yadav, creating a tough electoral battle.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;moneycontrol&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the [[2025 Bihar Legislative Assembly election]], [[Satish Kumar Yadav]] contested from the [[Raghopur Assembly constituency]] as the [[Bharatiya Janata Party]] candidate. He received 1,04,065 votes and finished as the runner-up, losing to [[Tejashwi Yadav]] by a margin of 14,532 votes.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |title=Raghopur – Candidate Wise Results |url=https://results.eci.gov.in/ResultAcGenNov2025/candidateswise-S04128.htm |website=Election Commission of India |access-date=2025-11-15}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Following Rudra&#039;s plan, Arjun and Amrutha go to perform &#039;&#039;pooja&#039;&#039; in Vishnupura. The village Shatrughna started performing &#039;&#039;yajnya&#039;&#039; and send his sister Sowparnika to make &#039;&#039;digbandhana&#039;&#039;. Arjun and Amrutha arrive, but she does not welcome them. Arjun saves her when her rival tries to attack her to disturb the &#039;&#039;pooja&#039;&#039;. She gives them permission to enter the village and takes them to their place. Arjun and Amrutha approach the &#039;&#039;yajnya&#039;&#039; and disturb it and Shatrughna tries to punish them. Sowparnika said that they saved her from her rival&#039;s attack &#039;&#039;pooja&#039;&#039;. Arjun and Amrutha stay in Shatrughna&#039;s home. Rudra comes to Vishnupura and convinces Shatrughna that Amrutha is Naagini.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Shatrughna and Rudra use Arjun to capture Amrutha. Amrutha is assisted by Sowparnika to save Arjun. Triveni is tense about what&#039;s happening in Vishnupura. He visits there and sees that Rudra is normal. He says &amp;quot;he has acted that way to kill his enemy&amp;quot;. Triveni tries to convince him that Arjun is not &#039;&#039;naaga&#039;&#039;. After Vishnu Bhairava Baba and Shastriji, Shastri acts as enemy and tries to help Amrutha and Arjun.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bhairava Baba and Rudra capture Amrutha and try to kill her. Arjun takes Naga form to rescue Amrutha and swallows &#039;&#039;Nagamani&#039;&#039;. Amrutha defeats Bhairava and Rudra. Finally Vishnu returns with Arjun&#039;s help.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Arjun starts to get signs of &#039;&#039;naaga&#039;&#039; when he is angered. Arjun tries to punish and warn Vishnu for killing &#039;&#039;naagas&#039;&#039;. Vishnu learns of this and goes to Bhairava to save him. He advises him to give Arjun to Bali &#039;&#039;pooja&#039;&#039; in order to save him. Vishnu tries to kill Arjun before Arjun kills him. He sends him Kaalingapura. When Vishnu tries, he accidentally sees his &#039;&#039;naaga&#039;&#039; form. Rudra goes there and takes him home.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vishnu tells Rudra of the event, but Rudra did not believe him. Arjun takes &#039;&#039;naga&#039;&#039; form and chases Vishnu. Vishnu runs out to save a life. Rudra approaches Vishnu. The duo is killed by Arjun&#039;s &#039;&#039;naaga&#039;&#039; form. Bhairava gives them their lives back. Vishnu and Rudra tell Bhairava of the incident, but he does not believe it. Once Bhairva tests Arjuna in their home and concludes that Arjun is naga and has &#039;&#039;Naagamani&#039;&#039;. Bhairva tries to take &#039;&#039;Nagamani&#039;&#039; from him but defeated by Arjun.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bhairva Baba concludes and tells Vishnu and Rudra that it is impossible for them but a rival of him would kill him. That rival is an Apsara named Urmila, aspiring to take Naagamani from Arjun. They killed Shesha also by tricking her in Amrutha form.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Entry of Apsara===&lt;br /&gt;
Amrutha and Arjun go on a trip, but a mystical old apsara takes them to an old temple. Amrutha knows Shesha&#039;s death by the trio of Vishnu, Rudra and Bhairava, chases them, kills Vishnu and Rudra, and accidentally takes them in Naga Roopa&#039;s body. Bhairav domslsEraser follows and asks for his advice. His guru said that he will defeat erasers with a weapon from his guru&#039;s atma Shakti. He would use it twice. Bhairava first uses the weapon when she released Vishnu and Rudra. The second time, she loses her sight. Bhairava tells the duo that Naagini has lost her sight, if she does not have treatment for her sight, she will give up her life. Arjun arrives and takes Amrutha home. The duo try to say that Amrutha is Naagini, but Arjun saves her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then, eraser controls Amrutha&#039;s mind and makes her say she needs ayurveda treatment. Eraser plans to kill Arjun and sends him to a village by disguising as an astrologer, saying he has to visit a village named Pushpagiri for Amrutha&#039;s treatment. There Amrutha starts to possess Arjun. Triveni and Urvashi try to test to reveal her as Naagini. Arjun becomes possessed by her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In Arjun&#039;s absence, Amrutha&#039;s true identity is revealed to everyone and Amrutha is thrown from the home. When Arjun arrives, he is told she is missing. He tries to find Amrutha. Meanwhile, Triveni takes the form of Gudi, a girl whom the family members wish to marry Arjun to turn him back to human.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Amrutha blesses Vaishnavi and Kumar to get a child. Dakshayani, Kumar&#039;s mother, gets to know that Amrutha is Naagini. She instructs Amrutha to perform &#039;&#039;Shiv-Parvati Pooja&#039;&#039; to save Arjun from Urmila.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When celebrating &#039;&#039;Naagarpanchami&#039;&#039;, Arjun meets Amrutha and she decides to take him to Naagloka, but her plan is foiled and she loses Arjun. Amrutha begins the &#039;&#039;pooja&#039;&#039; by begging for money. Triveni is captured by Bhairava and becomes his companion. Gudi plans to take Arjun to Amrutha .&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bhairava suddenly tells the family members to marry Arjuna and Triveni. Shastri escapes with Arjun. He takes Arjun to the forest to meet Amrutha. He leaves Arjun with Amrutha. Bhairava sends Kanishka to get the Naagmani where he is killed by Amrutha. On Neela Amavasya, the Neeli Nagas wrapped on Arjun where Naagmani was hidden. Later Amrutha confirms Naagmani&#039;s location.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Naagini Antima Adhyaya===&lt;br /&gt;
Amrutha learns that Nagamani is inside Arjun. As per Shastri&#039;s instruction Amrutha and Arjun unite as snakes in front of Shivalinga and the &#039;&#039;Nagamani&#039;&#039; inside Arjun comes out and goes on top of Shivalinga. Shastry says to Hema that a valuable object must be collected and she must keep it with her for a few days. Hema arrives and takes Naagmani and escapes. Amrutha comes back as human and identifies that Naagmani is missing. Then she asks Shastry about it. Shastry says that it is with Hema. Amrutha demands Hema for Naagmani, but Hema restricts her by giving Naagmani and says that the condition was that Amrutha should give Arjun to Hema and he should marry Triveni. Then she will give Naagmani to her. Amrutha agrees to that and brings Arjun home. Hema begs Amrutha that, she should leave the house by leaving Arjun and Arjun should come to know that she is Naagini. As per Hema&#039;s instructions, Amrutha tries to kill Mani as a Naagini. Arjun learns that Amrutha is Naagini so he throws Amrutha out.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Triveni reveals to Amrutha and says that she is a Naagini, not a ghost. And that she came on earth to marry Arjun. Amrutha challenges her that she take Arjun to Naaglok for Vasuki Dynasty, not for Urmila&#039;s Takshaka Dynasty.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Arjun&#039;s family decides to marry Arjun with Urmila and takes them to temple where marry. But Amrutha had disguised herself as Urmila. Amrutha arrests Urmila and hands her to Shastry. Shastry makes Urmila a statue and then Amrutha disguises as Urmila and marries Arjun.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Arjun is not happy and badly needs Amrutha whether she is Naagini or human. Hema and Amrutha (disguised as Urmila) goes to Ashrama. Shastry tells Hema to hand Naagmani to Urmila (Amrutha) as he know that Urmila is Amrutha. So Hema gives the box of Naagmani to Amrutha, but it was Bhairava Baba, who appeared to be Amrutha. Hema learns that she has lost Naagmani. Amrutha asks Shastry about this Shastry says that she should kill one of her enemies.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Rebirth of Arjun===&lt;br /&gt;
Arjun is reborn as Ajanubhava (an infectious snake). He is born as a human. His grandmother says he was an Ajanubhava. He does not believe in supernatural powers. He ignores his grandmother. Agrahara, a Bhairava, puts a &#039;&#039;Nagabhandhana&#039;&#039;. It was proved he was a snake. Bhairava tortures Ajanubhava and his father-in-law goes to Puttahamsa. A Mujyaala tells Vishnu not to travel to Naagara Devasthana. Vishnu and Rudra push Mujyaala and enter Naagara Devasthana. Ajanubhava is converted into naagayodha and save Naagara Devasthana. He defeats Vishnu and Rudra.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Defeat of Thakshaka===&lt;br /&gt;
Bhairava converts the spirit of Naagayodha. Thakshaka helps Amrutha but he does not get Vajrahana. Bhairava decides to get a poisonous snake. Thakshaka gets angry and kills a snake. Bhairava is not able to defeat Thakshaka. He remembers that in the past he had challenged Thakshaka that he would become more powerful than him. Bhairava stands against Thakshaka but is defeated.

In 2016, based on Beall&#039;s allegations, the US [[Federal Trade Commission]] (FTC) filed a lawsuit against OMICS&#039; publishing practices, citing their detrimental effects on American publishers&#039; loss of trade to the United States. If 10,000 articles article is published in [[open access journals]], the publication cost is about $10&amp;amp;nbsp;million with an average $2000 article processing cost, depending on the open-access journal publisher&#039;s model, and if the same 10,000 articles are published under a subscription business, they can generate about $500&amp;amp;nbsp;million annually by giving subscriptions to thousands of universities and research institutions across the world.

{{Chalukyas|Vatapi}}&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Vikramaditya I&#039;&#039;&#039; (reigned 655–680) was the third son and followed his father, [[Pulakeshi II]] on to the [[Chalukya]] throne.  He restored order in the fractured empire and made the [[Pallavas]] retreat from the capital [[Badami|Vatapi]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Titles ==&lt;br /&gt;
Vikramaditya inherited the traditional titles of the dynasty, including &#039;&#039;Satyashraya&#039;&#039; (&amp;quot;refuge of truth&amp;quot;) and &#039;&#039;[[Prithvi-vallabha (title)|Shri-prithvi-vallabha]]&#039;&#039; (&amp;quot;lord of goddess of wealth and earth&amp;quot;; variants include &#039;&#039;Shri-vallabha&#039;&#039; and &#039;&#039;Vallabha&#039;&#039;). He also bore the titles &#039;&#039;Maharajadhiraja&#039;&#039; (&amp;quot;king of great kings&amp;quot;), &#039;&#039;Rajadhiraja&#039;&#039; (&amp;quot;king of kings&amp;quot;), &#039;&#039;Parameshvara&#039;&#039; (&amp;quot;Supreme Lord&amp;quot;), and &#039;&#039;Bhattaraka&#039;&#039; (&amp;quot;great lord&amp;quot;).{{sfn|Durga Prasad Dikshit|1980|p=122}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
His titles indicative of his military power include &#039;&#039;Rana-rasika&#039;&#039; (&amp;quot;lover of war&amp;quot;), &#039;&#039;Anivarita&#039;&#039; (&amp;quot;unopposed&amp;quot;), and &#039;&#039;Raja-malla&#039;&#039; (&amp;quot;royal wrestler&amp;quot;).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Early life ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vikramaditya was one of the several sons of the powerful Chalukya Emperor [[Pulakeshin II]], as attested by the contemporary records of the family. The records of the later [[Chalukyas of Kalyani]], who claimed descent from Vikramaditya&#039;s family, describe him as a son of Pulakeshin&#039;s son [[Adityavarman (Chalukya dynasty)|Adityavarman]]. These records, such as the Kauthem inscription and [[Ranna (Kannada poet)|Ranna]]&#039;s &#039;&#039;Gadaayuddha&#039;&#039;, can be dismissed as inaccurate.{{sfn|Durga Prasad Dikshit|1980|p=122}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pulakeshin II was defeated and probably killed during the [[Pallava dynasty|Pallava]] invasion of the Chalukya capital [[Vatapi]] around c. 642 CE. The Chalukya history over the next decade is unclear: it is possible that after Pulakeshin&#039;s death, his son Adityavarman held the throne, followed by Adityavarman&#039;s son [[Abhinavaditya]], and then by Pulakeshin&#039;s son [[Chandraditya (Chalukya dynasty)|Chandraditya]].{{sfn|Durga Prasad Dikshit|1980|pp=116-118}} After Chandraditya, his wife [[Vijaya-Bhattarika]] appears to have acted as a regent for their minor son.{{sfn|Durga Prasad Dikshit|1980|p=117}} During her regency, Vikramaditya appears to have risen to prominence as the supreme commander of the Chalukya army, becoming the de facto ruler in the process.{{sfn|Durga Prasad Dikshit|1980|pp=118-119}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The inscriptions of Vikramaditya state that he obtained the &amp;quot;regal fortune of his father which had been concealed by three kings&amp;quot;, and thus &amp;quot;made the entire burden of royalty rest upon one person&amp;quot;. Historian [[K. A. Nilakanta Sastri]] theorized that beside the Pallava king, the two other kings referred to in this sentence were Adityavarman and  Chandraditya. According to this theory, the Chalukya kingdom was divided among the three brothers and the Pallavas after Pulakeshin&#039;s death, and Vikramaditya united it by subjugating the others. In his support, Sastri cited the undated [[Kurnool]] copper-plate inscription which states that Vikramaditya ascended the throne after &amp;quot;conquering all his kinsmen&amp;quot;. However, this inscription is considered spurious, and Sastri himself admitted that its authenticity is doubtful.{{sfn|Durga Prasad Dikshit|1980|p=120}} There is no evidence that the Chalukya kingdom was partitioned among the three brothers.{{sfn|Durga Prasad Dikshit|1980|p=119}} Had Vikramaditya been one of the rival claimants to the throne after Pulakehsin&#039;s death, he would have dated the start of his reign from c. 642 CE, not c. 655 CE, in his inscriptions.{{sfn|Durga Prasad Dikshit|1980|p=120}} Moreover, the Kochare and Nerur inscriptions of his sister-in-law Vijaya-Bhattarika mention him positively, but do not accord any royal titles to him.{{sfn|Durga Prasad Dikshit|1980|pp=117,120}} Based on these evidences, scholars such as [[D. C. Sircar]] theorize that Vikramaditya fought against the Pallavas as a subordinate of his brothers, and ascended the throne only after their deaths.{{sfn|Durga Prasad Dikshit|1980|p=121}} The term &amp;quot;[[Three Crowned Kings|three kings]]&amp;quot; apparently refers to the Chola, Chera, and Pandya rulers who had allied with the Pallavas.{{sfn|Durga Prasad Dikshit|1980|p=120}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Besides Adityavarman and Chandraditya, two other brothers of Vikramaditya are known: Ranaragha-varman and [[Chalukyas of Navasarika#Dharashraya Jayasimhavarman|Dharashraya Jayasimha-varman]]. The Honnur copper-plate inscription states that Ranaragha was his elder brother, and donated some land to [[Brahmin|Brahmanas]] during his reign. In accordance with the contemporary tradition, Ranaragha would have been ahead of Vikramaditya in the precedence to the throne: it is not clear why Vikramaditya became the king instead of him, and no other surviving source mentions him. Dharashraya Jayasimha was Vikramaditya&#039;s younger brother, and governed the north-western part of the Chalukya Empire as his subordinate.{{sfn|Durga Prasad Dikshit|1980|p=119}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The c. 674 CE (Shaka year 596) Gadval inscription of Vikramaditya is dated to his 12th regnal year, which suggests that he ascended the throne in c. 655 CE (Shaka year 577).{{sfn|T. V. Mahalingam|1977|pp=72-73}} This may have happened possibly after the son of Chandraditya and Vijaya died (naturally or otherwise).{{sfn|Durga Prasad Dikshit|1980|p=117}}&lt;br /&gt;

{{Main|Pallava–Chalukya Conflict}}&lt;br /&gt;
Vikramaditya, with the help of his maternal grandfather Bhuvikarma or Durvineet of [[Western Ganga Dynasty]] set himself the task of repelling the Pallava invasion and restoring the unity of his father&#039;s empire. He was able to end Pallava&#039;s occupation, which had lasted for thirteen years and captured Vatapi. He defeated his brothers and other feudatories who wished to divide the empire. Vikramaditya then declared himself king of the Chalukyas (655). He rewarded his younger brother Jayasimhavarma who was loyal to him, with the viceroyalty of [[Lata (region)|Lata]] in the southern [[Gujarat]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vikramaditya continued his enmity with Narasimhavarman&#039;s son and successor  [[Mahendravarman II]], and later with his son [[Paramesvaravarman I]]. Vikramaditya allied himself with the Pallava&#039;s other enemy the Pandyan Arikesari Parankusa Maravarman (670 – 700).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A.D. 670, Vikramaditya I, another of whose names was &#039; Ranarasika &#039;. Western Chalukya records claim for Vikramaditya that (in or after A.D. 670) he defeated &#039; Is&amp;quot;vara-Potaraja &#039;, ([[Parameswaravarman I]])and took Kanchi, the Pallava capital, &#039; but did not destroy it.&#039;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite book |url=http://archive.org/details/historicalinscri035270mbp |title=Historical Inscriptions Of Southern INida |publisher=Kitabistam,Allahabad |others=BRAOU, Digital Library Of India}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
According to the Honnur plates of Chalukya Vikramaditya I, dated in his 16th regnal year (circa 670 A.D. -671 A.D.), he camped in Malliyur on his way to Kanchipuram and with the help of the Gangas of Talakkad defeated the Pallavas.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last=Dikshit |first=Durga Prasad |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=lEB11tKmCgcC&amp;amp;pg=PA152 |title=Political History of the Chālukyas of Badami |date=1980 |publisher=Abhinav Publications |language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Battle of Vilande ===&lt;br /&gt;
To avenge the defeat, the Pallava king first waged a war against the Ganga ruler [[Bhuvikrama]], the supporter of the Chalukyas. From the Bedirur grant of Bhuvikrama and Hallegere plates of his brother and successor Sivamara, it is known that in this battle, which occurred at a place called Vilande, Paramesvaravarman I not only faced defeat in the hands of Bhuvikrama, but he was also deprived of his royal necklace.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last=Dikshit |first=Durga Prasad |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=lEB11tKmCgcC&amp;amp;pg=PA152 |title=Political History of the Chālukyas of Badami |date=1980 |publisher=Abhinav Publications |language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Battle of Peruvallanallur ===&lt;br /&gt;
As a result of this aggressive policy of [[Paramesvaravarman I]], he was again attacked by the Chalukyan king Vikramaditya I and seized Kanchipuram  after defeating him. According to the Chalukyan records Vikramaditya seems to have pushed on to the south, and he was encamped at Uragapura ([[Uraiyur]]) on the south bank of the Kaveri river on April 25 A.D. 674. Where he was opposed by [[Paramesvaravarman I]] and the [[Pandyan]] king [[Kochchadaiyan Ranadhira]], near Trichinopoly a battle was fought at Peruvalanallur. And the Kendur plates say that Vikramaditya, fought with the [[Pandyas]].We have also Supposed that [[Pandya]] king was one of the three confederates who gained the victory at Peruvallanallur.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last=G Jouveau Dubreuil |url=http://archive.org/details/pallavas034964mbp |title=The Pallavas |date=1917 |others=Universal Digital Library}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last=Subramaniam |first=N. |url=http://archive.org/details/in.ernet.dli.2015.462306 |title=History Of Tamilnad |date=1962}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; [[Pallava]] and [[Pandya]] records equally claim that, in this battle the [[Badami Chalukyas|Chalukyas]] was defeated.The Velvikudi copper plates mention Ranadhira victory over the [[Karnatas]](i.e.,[[Chalukyas of Badami|Chalukyas]]).

&lt;br /&gt;
=== Aftermath ===&lt;br /&gt;
Paramesvaravarman then sent an expedition into the Chalukya country. In the ensuing [[Battle of Puruvalanallur]] in 674 with Vikramaditya&#039;s forces, the Pallavas defeated the Chalukyas.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |title=South Indian Inscriptions_Volume 1 - Virinchipuram Temple Inscriptions @ whatisindia.com |url=https://www.whatisindia.com/inscriptions/south_indian_inscriptions/volume_1/kuram.html |access-date=2025-07-17 |website=www.whatisindia.com}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The defeated Chalukyan army was led by Vikramaditya&#039;s son and grandson [[Vinayaditya of Vatapi|Vinayaditya]] and [[Vijayaditya]]. Pallava king Paramesvaravarman must have mustered his forces and sought the assistance of the [[Chola]], [[Pandya]]  and  [[Chera]] of South India in order to give a crushing blow to their common enemy [[Vikramaditya]].The Kanchipuram Inscriptions state that Rajasimha was son of Ugradanda the destroyer of Ranarasika&#039;s city and that epithet Ranarasika refer to chalukya king [[Vikramaditya]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last=Gopalan |first=R. |url=http://archive.org/details/in.gov.ignca.35372 |title=History of the Pallavas of Kanchi |date=1928}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The combined forces of these four powers entered the Chalukyan territory and  probably sacked and captured [[Vatapi]] &#039;the  city of Ranarasika ’ on this occasion.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last=Dikshit |first=Durga Prasad |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=lEB11tKmCgcC&amp;amp;pg=PA152 |title=Political History of the Chālukyas of Badami |date=1980 |publisher=Abhinav Publications |language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last=Gopalan |first=R. |url=http://archive.org/details/in.gov.ignca.35372 |title=History of the Pallavas of Kanchi |date=1928}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last=Yazdani G. |url=http://archive.org/details/in.ernet.dli.2015.505941 |title=The Early History Of The Deccan Pat I-vi (1960) |date=1960}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Pallavas went on to occupy many of the Chalukya territories but later left after the chalukyas agreed to pay yearly tributes .

&lt;br /&gt;
During this time, Jayasimha, brother of Vikramaditya I who ruled as governor of Gujarat province defeated the ruler of Vallabhi, Vajjada the ruler of the Maitraka family. This victory is considered important.&lt;br /&gt;
The Chalukyan empire however had put the worst behind under Vikramaditya I and recovered most of its  territories it controlled under Pulakeshin II.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vikramaditya I was married to the Western Ganga princess Gangamahadevi. Some historians compare him to his illustrious father Pulakeshin II.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Death and succession==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vikramaditya died in 680 and his son Vinayaditya succeeded him on the Chalukya throne.&lt;br /&gt;

 &lt;br /&gt;
The &#039;&#039;&#039;Eastern Bloc&#039;&#039;&#039;, also known as the &#039;&#039;&#039;Communist Bloc&#039;&#039;&#039; (&#039;&#039;&#039;Combloc&#039;&#039;&#039;), the &#039;&#039;&#039;Socialist Bloc&#039;&#039;&#039;, the &#039;&#039;&#039;Workers Bloc&#039;&#039;&#039;, and the &#039;&#039;&#039;Soviet Bloc&#039;&#039;&#039;, was an unofficial coalition of [[Communist state]]s of [[Central and Eastern Europe]], [[Asia]], [[Africa]], and [[Latin America]] that were aligned with the [[Soviet Union]] and existed during the [[Cold War]] (1947–1991). These states followed the ideology of [[Marxism–Leninism]] and [[Types of socialism|various forms of socialism]], and were opposed to the [[Capitalism|capitalist]] [[Western Bloc]]. The Eastern Bloc was often called the &amp;quot;[[Second World]]&amp;quot;, while the term &amp;quot;[[First World]]&amp;quot; referred to the Western Bloc and &amp;quot;[[Third World]]&amp;quot; referred to the [[Non-Aligned Movement|non-aligned countries]] that were mainly in Africa, Asia, and Latin America but also included the [[Tito–Stalin split|pre-1948]] European Soviet ally [[Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia|Yugoslavia]]. Non-socialist countries, such as the [[Arab nationalism|Arab nationalist]] governments of [[Egypt]], [[Iraq]], [[Libya]], [[Syria]] etc., are sometimes considered part of the bloc.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In [[Western Europe]], the term &#039;Eastern Bloc&#039; generally referred to the USSR and [[Central and Eastern Europe]]an countries in the [[Comecon]] ([[East Germany]], [[Polish People&#039;s Republic|Poland]], [[Czechoslovak Socialist Republic|Czechoslovakia]], [[Hungarian People&#039;s Republic|Hungary]], [[Socialist Republic of Romania|Romania]], [[People&#039;s Republic of Bulgaria|Bulgaria]], and [[People&#039;s Socialist Republic of Albania|Albania]]).{{efn|Albania was a member of the Eastern Bloc until the [[Albanian–Soviet split]] from 1961 to 1970.|group=a}} In [[Asia]], the Eastern Bloc comprised [[Mongolian People&#039;s Republic|Mongolia]], [[Vietnam]], [[Laos]], [[People&#039;s Republic of Kampuchea|Kampuchea]], [[North Korea]], [[South Yemen]] and [[China]].{{Efn|Until the [[Sino-Soviet split]] in 1961.|group=c}}{{Efn|Sources:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Terminology==&lt;br /&gt;
The term Eastern Bloc was often used interchangeably with the term [[Second World]]. This broadest usage of the term would include not only [[Maoist China]] and [[Democratic Kampuchea|Cambodia]], but also short-lived Soviet satellites such as the [[Second East Turkestan Republic]] (1944–1949), the [[People&#039;s Republic of Azerbaijan]] (1945–1946) and the [[Republic of Mahabad]] (1946), as well as the Marxist–Leninist states straddling the Second and Third Worlds before the end of the Cold War: the [[People&#039;s Democratic Republic of Yemen]] (from 1967), the [[People&#039;s Republic of the Congo]] (from 1969), the [[People&#039;s Republic of Benin]], the [[People&#039;s Republic of Angola]] and [[People&#039;s Republic of Mozambique]] from 1975, the [[People&#039;s Revolutionary Government of Grenada]] from 1979 to 1983, the [[Derg]]/[[People&#039;s Democratic Republic of Ethiopia]] from 1974, and the [[Somali Democratic Republic]] from 1969 until the [[Ogaden War]] in 1977.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Ludlow, N.

&lt;br /&gt;
Many states were accused by the Western Bloc of being in the Eastern Bloc when they were part of the [[Non-Aligned Movement]]. The most limited definition of the Eastern Bloc would only include the Warsaw Pact states and the [[Mongolian People&#039;s Republic]] as former satellite states most dominated by the Soviet Union. [[Cuba]]&#039;s defiance of complete Soviet control was noteworthy enough that Cuba was sometimes excluded as a satellite state altogether, as it sometimes intervened in other Third World countries even when the Soviet Union opposed this.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Piero&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Post-1991 usage of the term &amp;quot;Eastern Bloc&amp;quot; may be more limited in referring to the states forming the [[Warsaw Pact]] (1955–1991) and [[People&#039;s Republic of Mongolia|Mongolia]] (1924–1991), which are no longer communist states.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;satyendra&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Citation |last1=Satyendra |first1=Kush |title=Encyclopaedic Dictionary of Political Science |page=65 |year=2003 |publisher=Sarup &amp;amp; Sons |isbn=978-81-7890-071-1 |quote=&amp;quot;The countries of Eastern Europe under communism&amp;quot;}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Janzen&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite book | last1 = Janzen | first1 = Jörg | last2 = Taraschewski | first2 = Thomas | editor-last = Shahshahānī | editor-first = Suhaylā | title = Cities of Pilgrimage | url = https://books.google.com/books?id=0T7DAJqAN7wC| series = Iuaes-series | volume = 4 | year = 2009 | publisher = LIT Verlag | location = Münster | isbn = 9783825816186 | page = 190 | quote = Until 1990, despite being a formally independent state, Mongolia had &#039;&#039;de facto&#039;&#039; been an integral part of the Soviet-dominated Eastern Bloc. | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20150905212712/https://books.google.com/books?id=0T7DAJqAN7wC | archive-date = 5 September 2015 | url-status = live }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Sometimes they are more generally referred to as &amp;quot;the countries of Eastern Europe under communism&amp;quot;,&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Satyendra, Kush, &#039;&#039;Encyclopaedic dictionary of political science&#039;&#039;, Sarup &amp;amp; Sons, 2003, {{ISBN|81-7890-071-8}}, p. 65&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; excluding Mongolia, but including [[Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia|Yugoslavia]] and [[People&#039;s Socialist Republic of Albania|Albania]] which had both split with the [[Soviet Union]] by the 1960s.&amp;lt;ref name=houghlin&amp;gt;{{Citation|last1=Hirsch|first1=Donald|first2=Joseph F.|last2=Kett|first3=James S.|last3=Trefil|title=The New Dictionary of Cultural Literacy|publisher=Houghton Mifflin Harcourt|year=2002|isbn=978-0-618-22647-4|page=[https://archive.org/details/newdictionaryofc00hirs/page/316 316]|quote=Eastern Bloc.

&lt;br /&gt;
Even though Yugoslavia was a socialist country, it was not a member of the Comecon or the Warsaw Pact. Parting with the USSR in 1948, Yugoslavia did not belong to the East, but it also did not belong to the West because of its socialist system and its status as a founding member of the [[Non-Aligned Movement]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Glisic&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Citation|last1=Glisic|first1=Jelena|title=East-West Trade and Japanese-Yugoslav Relations during the Cold War|publisher=Acta Slavica Iaponica|year=1976|pages=120 and 121|quote=The Eastern bloc was composed of socialist states, who were members of the Warsaw Pact and The Council for Mutual Economic Assistance (COMECON), led by the USSR.&amp;amp;nbsp;...

[[File:Yalta Conference (Churchill, Roosevelt, Stalin) (B&amp;amp;W).jpg|thumb|left|The Big Three ([[Prime Minister of the United Kingdom|British Prime Minister]] [[Winston Churchill]], [[President of the United States|U.S. President]] [[Franklin D. Roosevelt]] and [[Premier of the Soviet Union]] [[Joseph Stalin]]) at the [[Yalta Conference]], February 1945]]&lt;br /&gt;
In June 1941, Germany broke the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact by [[Operation Barbarossa|invading the Soviet Union]]. From the time of this invasion to 1944, the areas annexed by the Soviet Union were part of Germany&#039;s [[Reichskommissariat Ostland|Ostland]] (except for the [[Moldavian SSR]]). Thereafter, the Soviet Union began to push German forces westward through a series of battles on the [[Eastern Front (World War II)|Eastern Front]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the aftermath of [[Continuation War|World War II on the Soviet-Finnish border]], the parties [[Moscow Armistice|signed another peace treaty ceding to the Soviet Union]] in 1944, followed by a Soviet annexation of roughly the same eastern Finnish territories as those of the prior interim peace treaty as part of the [[Karelo-Finnish Soviet Socialist Republic]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web|url=http://heninen.net/sopimus/1944_e.htm|title=Armistice Agreement|date=1997|access-date=27 August 2019}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
From 1943 to 1945, several [[List of World War II conferences|conferences regarding Post-War Europe]] occurred that, in part, addressed the potential Soviet annexation and control of countries in Central Europe. There were various Allied plans for state order in Central Europe for post-war. While [[Joseph Stalin]] tried to get as many states under Soviet control as possible, British Prime Minister [[Winston Churchill]] preferred a Central European Danube Confederation to counter these countries against Germany and Russia.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[https://www.spiegel.de/geschichte/churchill-und-die-deutschen-a-946593.html &amp;quot;Churchill and the Germans&amp;quot; in Der Spiegel, 13 August 2010.]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Churchill&#039;s Soviet policy regarding Central Europe differed vastly from that of American President [[Franklin D. Roosevelt]], with the former believing Soviet leader Stalin to be a &amp;quot;devil&amp;quot;-like tyrant leading a vile system.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;miscamble51&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Miscamble|2007|p=51}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

When warned of potential domination by a Stalin dictatorship over part of Europe, Roosevelt responded with a statement summarizing his rationale for relations with Stalin: &amp;quot;I just have a hunch that Stalin is not that kind of a man.&amp;amp;nbsp;... I think that if I give him everything I possibly can and ask for nothing from him in return, noblesse oblige, he won&#039;t try to annex anything and will work with me for a world of democracy and peace&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;miscamble52&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Miscamble|2007|p=52}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; While meeting with Stalin and Roosevelt in [[Tehran Conference|Tehran]] in 1943, Churchill stated that Britain was vitally interested in restoring Poland as a politically independent country.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig44&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Britain did not press the matter for fear that it would become a source of inter-allied friction.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig44&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Wettig|2008|p=44}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In February 1945, at the [[Yalta Conference|conference at Yalta]], Stalin demanded a Soviet sphere of political influence in Central Europe.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;stalinswars241&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Stalin eventually was convinced by Churchill and Roosevelt not to dismember Germany.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;stalinswars241&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Stalin stated that the Soviet Union would keep the territory of eastern Poland they had already [[Soviet invasion of Poland|taken via invasion in 1939]] with [[Territorial changes of Poland immediately after World War II|some exceptions]], and wanted a pro-Soviet Polish government in power in what would remain of Poland.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;stalinswars241&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Roberts|2006|pp=241 &amp;amp; 244}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; After resistance by Churchill and Roosevelt, Stalin promised a re-organization of the current [[Polish Committee of National Liberation|pro-Soviet government]] on a broader democratic basis in Poland.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;stalinswars241&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; He stated that the new government&#039;s primary task would be to prepare elections.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig47&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Wettig|2008|pp=47–8}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; However, the [[1946 Polish people&#039;s referendum]] (known as the &amp;quot;Three Times Yes&amp;quot; referendum) and the subsequent [[1947 Polish parliamentary election]] did not meet democratic standards and were largely manipulated.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;NS&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite book |editor1-last=Nohlen |editor1-first=Dieter |editor2-last=Stöver |editor2-first=Philip |editor1-link=Dieter Nohlen |title=Elections in Europe: A Data Handbook |date=2010 |publisher=Nomos Verlagsgesellschaft |isbn=978-3832956097 |page=1475}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The parties at Yalta further agreed that the countries of liberated Europe and former Axis satellites would be allowed to &amp;quot;create democratic institutions of their own choice&amp;quot;, pursuant to &amp;quot;the right of all peoples to choose the form of government under which they will live&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;yaltareport&amp;quot;&amp;gt;11 February 1945 Potsdam Report, &#039;&#039;reprinted in&#039;&#039; Potsdam Ashley, John, Soames Grenville and Bernard Wasserstein, &#039;&#039;The Major International Treaties of the Twentieth Century: A History and Guide with Texts&#039;&#039;, Taylor &amp;amp; Francis, 2001 {{ISBN|0-415-23798-X}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The parties also agreed to help those countries form interim governments &amp;quot;pledged to the earliest possible establishment through free elections&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;facilitate where necessary the holding of such elections&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;yaltareport&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At the beginning of the July–August 1945 [[Potsdam Conference]] after Germany&#039;s unconditional surrender, Stalin repeated previous promises to Churchill that he would refrain from a &amp;quot;[[sovietization]]&amp;quot; of Central Europe.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;stalinswars274&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Roberts|2006|pp=274–78}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; In addition to reparations, Stalin pushed for &amp;quot;war booty&amp;quot;, which would permit the Soviet Union to directly seize property from conquered nations without quantitative or qualitative limitation.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig90&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; A clause was added permitting this to occur with some limitations.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig90&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Wettig|2008|pp=90–1}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Concealed transformation dynamics==&lt;br /&gt;
At first, the Soviets concealed their role in other Eastern Bloc politics, with the transformation appearing as a modification of Western &amp;quot;[[bourgeois democracy]]&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig37&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; As a young communist was told in East Germany, &amp;quot;it&#039;s got to look democratic, but we must have everything in our control&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Crampton|1997|p=211}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Stalin felt that socioeconomic transformation was indispensable to establish Soviet control, reflecting the Marxist–Leninist view that material bases, the distribution of the means of production, shaped social and political relations.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig36&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; The Soviet Union also co-opted the Eastern European countries into its sphere of influence by making reference to some cultural commonalities.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite book|last=Lewkowicz|first=Nicolas|title=The United States, the Soviet Union and the Geopolitical Implications of the Origins of the Cold War|publisher=Anthem Press|year=2018|isbn=978-1783087990|location=New York|page=119}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Moscow-trained cadres were put into crucial power positions to fulfill orders regarding sociopolitical transformation.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig36&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Wettig|2008|p=36}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Elimination of the [[bourgeoisie]]&#039;s social and financial power by expropriation of landed and industrial property was accorded absolute priority.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig37&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Wettig|2008|p=37}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; These measures were publicly billed as &amp;quot;reforms&amp;quot; rather than socioeconomic transformations.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig37&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Except for initially in Czechoslovakia, activities by political parties had to adhere to &amp;quot;Bloc politics&amp;quot;, with parties eventually having to accept membership in an &amp;quot;antifascist bloc&amp;quot; obliging them to act only by mutual &amp;quot;consensus&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig38&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Wettig|2008|p=38}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The bloc system permitted the Soviet Union to exercise domestic control indirectly.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig39&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Wettig|2008|p=39}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Crucial departments such as those responsible for personnel, general police, secret police and youth were strictly Communist run.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig39&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Moscow cadres distinguished &amp;quot;progressive forces&amp;quot; from &amp;quot;reactionary elements&amp;quot; and rendered both powerless. Such procedures were repeated until Communists had gained unlimited power and only politicians who were unconditionally supportive of Soviet policy remained.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig41&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Wettig|2008|p=41}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

[[File:Europe-blocs-49-89x4.svg|thumb|left|Political situation in Europe during the [[Cold War]]]]&lt;br /&gt;
In June 1947, after the Soviets had refused to negotiate a potential lightening of restrictions on German development, the United States announced the [[Marshall Plan]], a comprehensive program of American assistance to all European countries wanting to participate, including the Soviet Union and those of Eastern Europe.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;miller16&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Miller|2000|p=16}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The Soviets rejected the Plan and took a hard-line position against the United States and non-communist European nations.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig139&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Wettig|2008|p=139}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; However, Czechoslovakia was eager to accept the US aid; the Polish government had a similar attitude, and this was of great concern to the Soviets.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Wettig|2008|p=138}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Three worlds}}&lt;br /&gt;
In one of the clearest signs of Soviet control over the region up to that point, the Czechoslovak foreign minister, [[Jan Masaryk]], was summoned to Moscow and berated by Stalin for considering joining the Marshall Plan. Polish Prime minister [[Józef Cyrankiewicz]] was rewarded for the Polish rejection of the Plan with a huge 5-year trade agreement, including $450&amp;amp;nbsp;million in credit, 200,000 tons of grain, heavy machinery and factories.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news |url=http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,855998,00.html |title=Carnations |magazine=[[Time (magazine)|Time]] |date=9 February 1948 |access-date=1 February 2009 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090114182613/http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,855998,00.html |archive-date=14 January 2009 |url-status=dead }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In July 1947, Stalin ordered these countries to pull out of the Paris Conference on the European Recovery Programme, which has been described as &amp;quot;the moment of truth&amp;quot; in the post-[[World War II]] division of Europe.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;bideleaux&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Thereafter, Stalin sought stronger control over other Eastern Bloc countries, abandoning the prior appearance of democratic institutions.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig148&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Wettig|2008|p=148}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; When it appeared that, in spite of heavy pressure, non-communist parties might receive in excess of 40% of the vote in the [[1947 Hungarian parliamentary election|August 1947 Hungarian elections]], repressions were instituted to liquidate any independent political forces.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig148&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In that same month, annihilation of the opposition in Bulgaria began on the basis of continuing instructions by Soviet cadres.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig148&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig149&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Wettig|2008|p=149}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; At a late September 1947 meeting of all communist parties in [[Szklarska Poręba]],&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig140&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Wettig|2008|p=140}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Eastern Bloc communist parties were blamed for permitting even minor influence by non-communists in their respective countries during the run up to the Marshall Plan.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig148&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

[[File:Germans-airlift-1948.jpg|thumb|left|German civilians watching Western supply planes at [[Berlin Tempelhof Airport]] during the [[Berlin Blockade|Berlin Airlift]]]]&lt;br /&gt;
In the former German capital Berlin, surrounded by Soviet-occupied Germany, Stalin instituted the Berlin Blockade on 24 June 1948, preventing food, materials and supplies from arriving in [[West Berlin]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Gaddis|2005|p=33}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The blockade was caused, in part, by early local elections of October 1946 in which the [[Socialist Unity Party of Germany]] (SED) was rejected in favor of the [[Social Democratic Party in the GDR|Social Democratic Party]], which had gained two and a half times more votes than the SED.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;turner19&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Turner|1987|p=19}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The United States, Britain, France, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and several other countries began a massive &amp;quot;Berlin airlift&amp;quot;, supplying West Berlin with food and other supplies.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Miller|2000|pp=65–70}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

===Tito–Stalin split===&lt;br /&gt;
{{further|Tito–Stalin split}}&lt;br /&gt;
After disagreements between Yugoslav leader [[Josip Broz Tito]] and the Soviet Union regarding Greece and [[Socialist People&#039;s Republic of Albania|Albania]], a [[Tito–Stalin split]] occurred, followed by Yugoslavia being expelled from the [[Cominform]] in June 1948 and a brief failed Soviet putsch in Belgrade.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig156&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Wettig|2008|p=156}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The split created two separate communist forces in Europe.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig156&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; A vehement campaign against [[Titoism]] was immediately started in the Eastern Bloc, describing agents of both the West and Tito in all places as engaging in subversive activity.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig156&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Stalin ordered the conversion of the [[Cominform]] into an instrument to monitor and control the internal affairs of other Eastern Bloc parties.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig156&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; He also briefly considered converting the Cominform into an instrument for sentencing high-ranking deviators, but dropped the idea as impractical.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig156&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Instead, a move to weaken communist party leaders through conflict was started.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig156&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Soviet cadres in communist party and state positions in the Bloc were instructed to foster intra-leadership conflict and to transmit information against each other.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig156&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; This accompanied a continuous stream of accusations of &amp;quot;nationalistic deviations&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;insufficient appreciation of the USSR&#039;s role&amp;quot;, links with Tito and &amp;quot;espionage for Yugoslavia&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig157&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; This resulted in the persecution of many major party cadres, including those in East Germany.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig157&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Wettig|2008|p=157}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first country to experience this approach was [[Socialist People&#039;s Republic of Albania|Albania]], where leader [[Enver Hoxha]] immediately changed course from favoring Yugoslavia to opposing it.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig157&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; In [[People&#039;s Republic of Poland|Poland]], leader [[Władysław Gomułka]], who had previously made pro-Yugoslav statements, was deposed as party secretary-general in early September 1948 and subsequently jailed.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig157&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; In [[People&#039;s Republic of Bulgaria|Bulgaria]], when it appeared that Traicho Kostov, who was not a Moscow cadre, was next in line for leadership, in June 1949, Stalin ordered Kostov&#039;s arrest, followed soon thereafter by a death sentence and execution.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig157&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; A number of other high ranking Bulgarian officials were also jailed.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig157&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Stalin and Hungarian leader [[Mátyás Rákosi]] met in Moscow to orchestrate a show trial of Rákosi opponent [[László Rajk]], who was thereafter executed.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig158&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Wettig|2008|p=158}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The preservation of the Soviet bloc relied on maintaining a sense of ideological unity that would entrench Moscow&#039;s influence in Eastern Europe as well as the power of the local Communist elites.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite book|last=Lewkowicz|first=Nicolas|title=The Role of Ideology in the Origins of the Cold War|publisher=Scholar&#039;s Press|year=2020|isbn=978-620-2317269|location=Saarbrucken|page=55}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

The port city of [[Trieste]] was a particular focus after the Second World War. Until the break between Tito and Stalin, the Western powers and the Eastern bloc faced each other uncompromisingly. The neutral buffer state [[Free Territory of Trieste]], founded in 1947 with the United Nations, was split up and dissolved in 1954 and 1975, also because of the détente between the West and Tito.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Christian Jennings &amp;quot;Flashpoint Trieste: The First Battle of the Cold War&amp;quot;, (2017), pp 244.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Karlo Ruzicic-Kessler &amp;quot;Togliatti, Tito and the Shadow of Moscow 1944/45–1948: Post-War Territorial Disputes and the Communist World&amp;quot;, In: Journal of European Integration History, (2/2014).&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

However, the vestiges of democratic institutions were never entirely destroyed, resulting in the façade of democratic-style institutions such as [[supreme state organ of power]], which effectively just rubber-stamped decisions made by rulers, and [[communist state constitution]]s, to which adherence by authorities was limited or non-existent.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;hardt12&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Parliaments were still elected, but their meetings occurred only a few days per year, only to legitimize politburo decisions, and so little attention was paid to them that some of those serving were actually dead, and officials would openly state that they would seat members who had lost elections.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton246&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Crampton|1997|p=246}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Communist regimes in the Eastern Bloc viewed marginal groups of opposition intellectuals as a potential threat because of the bases underlying Communist power therein.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Pollackxiv&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Pollack|Wielgohs|2004|p=xiv}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The suppression of dissidence and opposition was considered a central prerequisite to retain power, though the enormous expense at which the population in certain countries were kept under secret surveillance may not have been rational.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Pollackxiv&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Following a totalitarian initial phase, a post-totalitarian period followed the death of Stalin in which the primary method of Communist rule shifted from mass terror to selective repression, along with ideological and sociopolitical strategies of legitimation and the securing of loyalty.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Pollackxv&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Pollack|Wielgohs|2004|p=xv}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Juries were replaced by a tribunal of professional judges and two lay assessors that were dependable party actors.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton247&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Crampton|1997|p=247}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

The police deterred and contained opposition to party directives.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton247&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; The political police served as the core of the system, with their names becoming synonymous with raw power and the threat of violent retribution should an individual become active against the State.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton247&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Several state police and secret police organizations enforced communist party rule, including the following:&lt;br /&gt;

The press in the communist period was an organ of the state, completely reliant on and subservient to the communist party.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;oneil15&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|O&#039;Neil|1997|p=15}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Before the late 1980s, Eastern Bloc radio and television organizations were state-owned, while print media was usually owned by political organizations, mostly by the local communist party.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;oneil25&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|O&#039;Neil|1997|p=125}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Youth newspapers and magazines were owned by youth organizations affiliated with communist parties.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;oneil25&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The control of the media was exercised directly by the communist party itself, and by state censorship, which was also controlled by the party.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;oneil25&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Media served as an important form of control over information and society.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;oneil1&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|O&#039;Neil|1997|p=1}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The dissemination and portrayal of knowledge were considered by authorities to be vital to communism&#039;s survival by stifling alternative concepts and critiques.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;oneil1&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Several state Communist Party newspapers were published, including:&lt;br /&gt;

The [[Telegraph Agency of the Soviet Union|Telegraph Agency of the Soviet Union (TASS)]] served as the central agency for collection and distribution of internal and international news for all Soviet newspapers, radio and television stations. It was frequently infiltrated by Soviet intelligence and security agencies, such as the [[NKVD]] and [[Glavnoye Razvedyvatel&#039;noye Upravleniye|GRU]]. TASS had affiliates in 14 Soviet republics, including the [[Lithuanian SSR]], [[Latvian SSR]], [[Estonian SSR]], [[Moldavian SSR]]. [[Ukrainian SSR]] and [[Byelorussian SSR]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Western countries invested heavily in powerful transmitters which enabled services such as the [[BBC]], [[VOA]] and [[Radio Free Europe]] (RFE) to be heard in the Eastern Bloc, despite attempts by authorities to jam the airways.&lt;br /&gt;

{{main|Cominform|Comecon|Warsaw Pact}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 1949, the [[Soviet Union]], Bulgaria, [[Czechoslovakia]], Hungary, Poland, and Romania founded the [[Comecon]] in accordance with Stalin&#039;s desire to enforce Soviet domination of the lesser states of Central Europe and to mollify some states that had expressed interest in the [[Marshall Plan]],&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;loc-cs&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Germany (East), Library of Congress Country Study, [http://memory.loc.gov/frd/cs/germany_east/gx_appnb.html &#039;&#039;Appendix B: The Council for Mutual Economic Assistance&#039;&#039;] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090501075842/http://memory.loc.gov/frd/cs/germany_east/gx_appnb.html |date=1 May 2009 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton240&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Crampton|1997|p=240}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; and which were now, increasingly, cut off from their traditional markets and suppliers in Western Europe.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;bideleaux&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Bideleux, Robert and Ian Jeffries, &#039;&#039;A History of Eastern Europe: Crisis and Change&#039;&#039;, Routledge, 1998, {{ISBN|0-415-16111-8}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The Comecon&#039;s role became ambiguous because Stalin preferred more direct links with other party chiefs than the Comecon&#039;s indirect sophistication; it played no significant role in the 1950s in economic planning.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;turnock26&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Turnock|1997|p=26}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Initially, the Comecon served as cover for the Soviet taking of materials and equipment from the rest of the Eastern Bloc, but the balance changed when the Soviets became net subsidizers of the rest of the Bloc by the 1970s via an exchange of low cost raw materials in return for shoddily manufactured finished goods.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;turnock27&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Turnock|1997|p=27}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 1955, the [[Warsaw Pact]] was formed partly in response to [[NATO]]&#039;s inclusion of [[West Germany]] and partly because the Soviets needed an excuse to retain [[Red Army]] units in Hungary.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton240&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; For 35 years, the Pact perpetuated the Stalinist concept of Soviet national security based on imperial expansion and control over satellite regimes in Eastern Europe.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;michta31&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Michta|Mastny|1992|p=31}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; This Soviet formalization of their security relationships in the Eastern Bloc reflected Moscow&#039;s basic security policy principle that continued presence in East Central Europe was a foundation of its defense against the West.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;michta31&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Through its institutional structures, the Pact also compensated in part for the absence of Joseph Stalin&#039;s personal leadership since his death in 1953.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;michta31&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; The Pact consolidated the other Bloc members&#039; armies in which Soviet officers and security agents served under a unified Soviet command structure.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;michta32&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Michta|Mastny|1992|p=32}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

After the creation of the Eastern Bloc, emigration out of the newly occupied countries, except under limited circumstances, was effectively halted in the early 1950s, with the Soviet approach to controlling national movement emulated by most of the rest of the Eastern Bloc.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;dowty114&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Dowty|1989|p=114}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; However, in [[East Germany]], taking advantage of the [[Inner German border]] between occupied zones, hundreds of thousands fled to West Germany, with figures totaling 197,000 in 1950, 165,000 in 1951, 182,000 in 1952 and 331,000 in 1953.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[http://www.stmas.bayern.de/migration/aussiedler/aussstat.pdf &#039;&#039;Bayerisches Staatsministerium für Arbeit und Sozialordnung, Familie und Frauen, Statistik Spätaussiedler&#039;&#039;] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090319224912/http://www.stmas.bayern.de/migration/aussiedler/aussstat.pdf |date=19 March 2009 }}, Bundesgebiet Bayern, Dezember 2007, p.3 (in German)&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;loescher60&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Loescher|2001|p=60}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; One reason for the sharp 1953 increase was fear of potential further [[Sovietization]] with the increasingly paranoid{{dubious|date=September 2017}} actions of [[Joseph Stalin]] in late 1952 and early 1953.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;loescher68&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Loescher|2001|p=68}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; 226,000 had fled in just the first six months of 1953.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;dale17&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Dale|2005|p=17}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

==Population==&lt;br /&gt;
Eastern Bloc countries such as the Soviet Union had high rates of population growth. In 1917, the population of Russia in its present borders was 91&amp;amp;nbsp;million. Despite the destruction in the [[Russian Civil War]], the population grew to 92.7&amp;amp;nbsp;million in 1926. In 1939, the population increased by 17 percent to 108&amp;amp;nbsp;million. Despite more than 20&amp;amp;nbsp;million deaths suffered throughout World War II, Russia&#039;s population grew to 117.2&amp;amp;nbsp;million in 1959. The Soviet census of 1989 showed Russia&#039;s population at 147&amp;amp;nbsp;million people.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |url=http://kprf.ru/rus_soc/56296.html |title=Г.А.Зюганов.

&lt;br /&gt;
The Soviet economical and political system produced further consequences such as, for example, in [[Baltic states]], where the population was approximately half of what it should have been compared with similar countries such as Denmark, Finland and Norway over the years 1939–1990. Poor housing was one factor leading to severely declining birth rates throughout the Eastern Bloc.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince35&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; However, birth rates were still higher than in Western European countries. A reliance upon abortion, in part because periodic shortages of birth control pills and [[intrauterine devices]] made these systems unreliable,&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;frucht851&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Frucht|2003|p=851}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; also depressed the birth rate and forced a shift to pro-natalist policies by the late 1960s, including severe checks on abortion and propagandist exhortations like the &#039;heroine mother&#039; distinction bestowed on those [[People&#039;s Republic of Romania|Romanian]] women who bore ten or more children.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;turnock17&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Turnock|1997|p=17}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In October 1966, artificial birth control was proscribed in [[People&#039;s Republic of Romania|Romania]] and regular pregnancy tests were mandated for women of child-bearing age, with severe penalties for anyone who was found to have terminated a pregnancy.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton355&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Crampton|1997|p=355}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Despite such restrictions, birth rates continued to lag, in part because of unskilled induced abortions.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;turnock17&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; The populations of the Eastern Bloc countries were as follows:&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;turnock15&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Turnock|1997|p=15}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Andreev, E.M., et al., Naselenie Sovetskogo Soiuza, 1922–1991.

==Social structure==&lt;br /&gt;
Eastern Bloc societies operated under anti-meritocratic principles with strong egalitarian elements. For example, Czechoslovakia favoured less qualified individuals, as well as providing privileges for the [[nomenklatura]] and those with the right class or political background. Eastern Bloc societies were dominated by the ruling communist party, dubbed &amp;quot;partyocracy&amp;quot; by Pavel Machonin.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Machonin, P (1993)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite journal |last1=Machonin |first1=Pavel |title=The Social Structure of Soviet-Type Societies, Its Collapse and Legacy |journal=Czech Sociological Review |date=1993 |volume=1 |issue=2 |pages=234–235 |jstor=43945192 |url=https://www.jstor.org/stable/43945192 |access-date=17 May 2024}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Former members of the middle-class were officially discriminated against, though the need for their skills allowed them to re-invent themselves as good communist citizens.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;James, M (2005)&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Tchouikina, S (2009)&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite book |last1=Tchouikina |first1=Sofia |editor1-last=Packard |editor1-first=Noel |title=Sociology of Memory: Papers from the Spectrum |date=2009 |publisher=Cambridge Scholars Publishing |location=Newcastle upon Tyne |isbn=978-1-4438-0199-7 |pages=63–99 |url=https://shs.hal.science/halshs-01904567 |access-date=17 May 2024 |language=en |chapter=Collective Memory and Reconversion of Elite: Former Nobles in Soviet Society after 1917}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

==Housing==&lt;br /&gt;
{{Main|Housing construction in the Soviet Union}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A housing shortage existed throughout the Eastern Bloc. In Europe it was primarily due to the devastation during [[World War II]]. Construction efforts suffered after a severe cutback in state resources available for housing starting in 1975.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince1&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Sillince|1990|p=1}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Cities became filled with large [[Panelák|system-built apartment blocks]]&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;bideleux475&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Housing construction policy suffered from considerable organisational problems.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince2&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Sillince|1990|p=2}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Moreover, completed houses possessed noticeably poor quality finishes.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince2&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Housing quality===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Mdm1.png|thumb|upright=1.5|Prominent examples of urban design included Marszałkowska Housing Estate (MDM) in [[Warsaw]].]]&lt;br /&gt;
The near-total emphasis on [[Residential building series|large apartment blocks]] was a common feature of Eastern Bloc cities in the 1970s and 1980s.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;turnock54&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Turnock|1997|p=54}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; [[East Germany|East German]] authorities viewed large cost advantages in the construction of [[Plattenbau]] apartment blocks such that the building of such architecture on the edge of large cities continued until the dissolution of the Eastern Bloc.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;turnock54&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Buildings such as the [[Panelák]]s of [[Czechoslovak Socialist Republic|Czechoslovakia]] and [[Panelház]] of [[People&#039;s Republic of Hungary|Hungary]]. Wishing to reinforce the role of the state in the 1970s and 1980s, [[Nicolae Ceaușescu]] enacted the [[Systematization (Romania)|systematisation]] programme, which consisted of the demolition and reconstruction of existing hamlets, villages, towns, and cities, in whole or in part, in order to make place to standardised apartment blocks across the country (&#039;&#039;blocuri&#039;&#039;).&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;turnock54&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Under this ideology, Ceaușescu built [[Centrul Civic]] of Bucharest in the 1980s, which contains the [[Palace of the Parliament]], in the place of the former historic center.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Even by the late 1980s, [[sanitary conditions]] in most Eastern Bloc countries were generally far from adequate.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince18&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Sillince|1990|p=18}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; For all countries for which data existed, 60% of dwellings had a density of greater than one person per room between 1966 and 1975.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince18&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; The average in western countries for which data was available approximated 0.5 persons per room.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince18&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Problems were aggravated by poor quality finishes on new dwellings often causing occupants to undergo a certain amount of finishing work and additional repairs.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince18&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Poor housing was one of the four major factors (others being poor living conditions, increased female employment and abortion as an encouraged means of birth control) which led to declining birth rates throughout the Eastern Bloc.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince35&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Sillince|1990|p=35}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Because of the [[Criticisms of the labour theory of value|lack of market signals]], Eastern Bloc economies experienced mis-development by [[Soviet-type economic planning|central planners]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;hardt15&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Hardt|Kaufman|1995|p=15}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;dale85&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Dale|2005|p=85}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The Eastern Bloc also depended upon the Soviet Union for significant amounts of materials.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;hardt15&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Hardt|Kaufman|1995|p=16}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Technological backwardness resulted in dependency on imports from Western countries and this, in turn, in demand for Western currency. Eastern Bloc countries were heavily borrowing from [[Club de Paris]] (central banks) and [[London Club]] (private banks) and most of them by the early 1980s were forced to notify the creditors of their insolvency. This information was however kept secret from the citizens and propaganda promoted the view that the countries were on the best way to socialism.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.clubdeparis.org/en/traitements?tid_1=118&amp;amp;tid_2=All&amp;amp;tid=All&amp;amp;field_treatment_date_value%5Bvalue%5D%5Byear%5D=|title=Agreements concluded with Paris Club|website=clubdeparis.org|access-date=12 December 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180923113520/http://www.clubdeparis.org/en/traitements?tid_1=118&amp;amp;tid_2=All&amp;amp;tid=All&amp;amp;field_treatment_date_value%5Bvalue%5D%5Byear%5D=|archive-date=23 September 2018|url-status=live}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.clubdeparis.org/en/traitements?tid_1=97&amp;amp;tid_2=All&amp;amp;tid=All&amp;amp;field_treatment_date_value%5Bvalue%5D%5Byear%5D=|title=Agreements concluded with Paris Club|website=clubdeparis.org|access-date=12 December 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180923121046/http://www.clubdeparis.org/en/traitements?tid_1=97&amp;amp;tid_2=All&amp;amp;tid=All&amp;amp;field_treatment_date_value%5Bvalue%5D%5Byear%5D=|archive-date=23 September 2018|url-status=live}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.clubdeparis.org/en/traitements?tid_1=98&amp;amp;tid_2=All&amp;amp;tid=All&amp;amp;field_treatment_date_value%5Bvalue%5D%5Byear%5D=|title=Agreements concluded with Paris Club|website=clubdeparis.org|access-date=12 December 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180923120608/http://www.clubdeparis.org/en/traitements?tid_1=98&amp;amp;tid_2=All&amp;amp;tid=All&amp;amp;field_treatment_date_value%5Bvalue%5D%5Byear%5D=|archive-date=23 September 2018|url-status=live}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

As a consequence of [[World War II]] and the German occupations in Eastern Europe, much of the region had been subjected to enormous destruction of industry, infrastructure and loss of civilian life. In Poland alone the policy of plunder and exploitation inflicted enormous material losses to Polish industry (62% of which was destroyed),&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Historia Polski 1918–1945: Tom 1 Czesław Brzoza, Andrzej Sowa, p. 697, Wydawnictwo Literackie, 2006&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; agriculture, infrastructure and cultural landmarks, the cost of which has been estimated as approximately €525&amp;amp;nbsp;billion or $640&amp;amp;nbsp;billion in 2004 exchange values.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[http://www.dw-world.de/dw/article/0,,1324630,00.html Poles Vote to Seek War Reparations] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100403152040/http://www.dw-world.de/dw/article/0,,1324630,00.html |date=3 April 2010 }}, &#039;&#039;[[Deutsche Welle]]&#039;&#039;, 11 September 2004&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

The defining characteristic of [[Stalinist]] [[totalitarianism]] was the unique symbiosis of the state with society and the economy, resulting in politics and economics losing their distinctive features as autonomous and distinguishable spheres.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;hardt11&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Initially, Stalin directed systems that rejected Western institutional characteristics of [[market economy|market economies]], [[democracy|democratic governance]] (dubbed &amp;quot;bourgeois democracy&amp;quot; in Soviet parlance) and the rule of law subduing discretional intervention by the state.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;hardt12&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Soviets mandated expropriation and &#039;&#039;etatisation&#039;&#039; of private property.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;roht83&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Roht-Arriaza|1995|p=83}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The Soviet-style &amp;quot;replica regimes&amp;quot; that arose in the Bloc not only reproduced the Soviet [[command economy]], but also adopted the brutal methods employed by [[Joseph Stalin]] and Soviet-style secret polices to suppress real and potential opposition.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;roht83&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Stalinist regimes in the Eastern Bloc saw even marginal groups of opposition intellectuals as a potential threat because of the bases underlying Stalinist power therein.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Pollackxiv&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; The suppression of dissent and opposition was a central prerequisite for the security of Stalinist power within the Eastern Bloc, though the degree of opposition and dissident suppression varied by country and time throughout the Eastern Bloc.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Pollackxiv&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In addition, media in the Eastern Bloc were organs of the state, completely reliant on and subservient to the government of the USSR with radio and television organisations being state-owned, while print media was usually owned by political organisations, mostly by the local party.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;oneil15&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; While over 15&amp;amp;nbsp;million Eastern Bloc residents migrated westward from 1945 to 1949,&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Böcker|1998|pp=207–9}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; emigration was effectively halted in the early 1950s, with the Soviet approach to controlling national movement emulated by most of the rest of the Eastern Bloc.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;dowty114&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Initial changes===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Transformations billed as reforms====&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Vilnius Energy and Technology Museum 48.JPG|thumb|left|Reconstruction of a typical [[Proletariat|working class]] flat interior in a [[khrushchyovka]]]]&lt;br /&gt;
In the USSR, because of strict Soviet secrecy under [[Joseph Stalin]], for many years after World War II, even the best informed foreigners did not effectively know about the operations of the Soviet economy.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;laqueur23&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Laqueur|1994|p=23}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Stalin had sealed off outside access to the Soviet Union since 1935 (and until his death), effectively permitting no foreign travel inside the Soviet Union such that outsiders did not know of the political processes that had taken place therein.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;laqueur22&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Laqueur|1994|p=22}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; During this period, and even for 25 years after Stalin&#039;s death, the few diplomats and foreign correspondents permitted inside the Soviet Union were usually restricted to within a few kilometres of Moscow, their phones were tapped, their residences were restricted to foreigner-only locations and they were constantly followed by Soviet authorities.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;laqueur22&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Soviets also modeled economies in the rest of Eastern Bloc outside the Soviet Union along Soviet [[command economy]] lines.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;turnock23&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Turnock|1997|p=23}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Before World War II, the Soviet Union used draconian procedures to ensure compliance with directives to invest all assets in state planned manners, including the [[collectivisation]] of agriculture and utilising a sizeable labor army collected in the [[gulag]] system.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;2turnock267&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; This system was largely imposed on other Eastern Bloc countries after World War II.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;2turnock267&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; While propaganda of proletarian improvements accompanied systemic changes, terror and intimidation of the consequent ruthless Stalinism obfuscated feelings of any purported benefits.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;turnock27&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Stalin felt that socioeconomic transformation was indispensable to establish Soviet control, reflecting the [[Marxism–Leninism|Marxist–Leninist]] view that material bases, the distribution of the means of production, shaped social and political relations.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig36&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Moscow trained cadres were put into crucial power positions to fulfill orders regarding sociopolitical transformation.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig36&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Elimination of the bourgeoisie&#039;s social and financial power by expropriation of landed and industrial property was accorded absolute priority.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig37&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These measures were publicly billed as reforms rather than socioeconomic transformations.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig37&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Throughout the Eastern Bloc, except for [[Czechoslovak Socialist Republic|Czechoslovakia]], &amp;quot;societal organisations&amp;quot; such as trade unions and associations representing various social, professional and other groups, were erected with only one organisation for each category, with competition excluded.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig37&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Those organisations were managed by Stalinist cadres, though during the initial period, they allowed for some diversity.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;wettig38&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Asset relocation====&lt;br /&gt;
At the same time, at the war&#039;s end, the Soviet Union adopted a &amp;quot;[[plunder]] policy&amp;quot; of physically transporting and relocating east European industrial assets to the Soviet Union.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;pearson29&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Pearson|1998|pp=29–30}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Eastern Bloc states were required to provide coal, industrial equipment, technology, rolling stock and other resources to reconstruct the Soviet Union.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;bideleux461&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Bideleux|Jeffries|2007|p=461}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Between 1945 and 1953, the Soviets received a net transfer of resources from the rest of the Eastern Bloc under this policy of roughly $14&amp;amp;nbsp;billion, an amount comparable to the net transfer from the United States to western Europe in the [[Marshall Plan]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;bideleux461&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;black86&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Black|English|Helmreich|McAdams|2000|p=86}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; &amp;quot;Reparations&amp;quot; included the dismantling of railways in Poland and Romanian reparations to the Soviets between 1944 and 1948 valued at $1.8&amp;amp;nbsp;billion concurrent with the domination of [[SovRoms]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;2turnock267&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In addition, the Soviets re-organised enterprises as [[Joint-stock company|joint-stock companies]] in which the Soviets possessed the controlling interest.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;black86&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton211&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Crampton|1997|p=211}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Using that control vehicle, several enterprises were required to sell products at below world prices to the Soviets, such as uranium mines in [[Czechoslovak Socialist Republic|Czechoslovakia]] and [[East Germany]], coal mines in [[People&#039;s Republic of Poland|Poland]], and oil wells in [[People&#039;s Republic of Romania|Romania]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;black87&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Black|English|Helmreich|McAdams|2000|p=87}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Trade and Comecon====&lt;br /&gt;
{{Main|Comecon|History of the Comecon}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The trading pattern of the Eastern Bloc countries was severely modified.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;black88&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Black|English|Helmreich|McAdams|2000|p=88}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Before World War II, no greater than 1%–2% of those countries&#039; trade was with the Soviet Union.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;black88&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; By 1953, the share of such trade had jumped to 37%.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;black88&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; In 1947, [[Joseph Stalin]] had also denounced the [[Marshall Plan]] and forbade all Eastern Bloc countries from participating in it.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;black82&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Black|English|Helmreich|McAdams|2000|p=82}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soviet dominance further tied other Eastern Bloc economies&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;black88&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; to Moscow via the Council for Mutual Economic Assistance (CMEA) or [[Comecon]], which determined countries&#039; investment allocations and the products that would be traded within Eastern Bloc.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;frucht382&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Although Comecon was initiated in 1949, its role became ambiguous because Stalin preferred more direct links with other party chiefs than the indirect sophistication of the council. It played no significant role in the 1950s in economic planning.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;turnock26&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Initially, Comecon served as cover for the Soviet taking of materials and equipment from the rest of the Eastern Bloc, but the balance changed when the Soviets became net subsidisers of the rest of the Bloc by the 1970s via an exchange of low cost raw materials in return for shoddily manufactured finished goods.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;turnock27&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; While resources such as oil, timber and uranium initially made gaining access to other Eastern Bloc economies attractive, the Soviets soon had to export Soviet raw materials to those countries to maintain cohesion therein.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;2turnock267&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Turnock|2006|p=267}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Following resistance to Comecon plans to extract [[People&#039;s Republic of Romania|Romania]]&#039;s mineral resources and heavily utilise its agricultural production, Romania began to take a more independent stance in 1964.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton313&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; While it did not repudiate Comecon, it took no significant role in its operation, especially after the rise to power of [[Nicolae Ceauşescu]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton313&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Heavy industry emphasis===&lt;br /&gt;
According to the official propaganda in the Soviet Union, there was unprecedented affordability of housing, health care and education.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ria.ru&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://ria.ru/history_spravki/20101108/293796130.html|title=Советская экономика в эпоху Леонида Брежнева|work=РИА Новости |date=8 November 2010|access-date=23 March 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150402092007/http://ria.ru/history_spravki/20101108/293796130.html|archive-date=2 April 2015|url-status=live}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;{{Unreliable source?|date=August 2019}} Apartment rent on average amounted to only 1 percent of the family budget, a figure which reached 4 percent when municipal services are factored in. Tram tickets were 20 kopecks, and a loaf of bread was 15 kopecks. The average monthly salary of an [[engineer]] was 140–160 [[Soviet ruble|ruble]]s.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://2000.net.ua/2000/svoboda-slova/sotsium/77009 |title=Ирония нашей судьбы : Социум : Еженедельник 2000 |publisher=2000.net.ua |access-date=19 November 2013 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131020071603/http://2000.net.ua/2000/svoboda-slova/sotsium/77009 |archive-date=20 October 2013 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Soviet Union made major progress in developing the country&#039;s consumer goods sector. In 1970, the USSR produced 679&amp;amp;nbsp;million pairs of leather footwear, compared to 534&amp;amp;nbsp;million for the United States. Czechoslovakia, which had the world&#039;s highest per-capita production of shoes, exported a significant portion of its shoe production to other countries.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;The world hides, skins, leather and footwear economy&#039;&#039;. Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, 1970. p.85&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
According to official statistics, the rising standard of living under socialism led to a steady decrease in the workday and an increase in leisure. In 1974, the average workweek for Soviet industrial workers was 40 hours. Paid vacations in 1968 reached a minimum of 15 workdays. In the mid-1970s the number of free days per year-days off, holidays and vacations was 128–130, almost double the figure from the previous ten years.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Planning of manpower in the Soviet Union. Progress Publishers. 1975. p. 101&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;{{Unreliable source?|date=July 2025}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Because of the lack of market signals in such economies, they experienced mis-development by central planners resulting in those countries following a path of extensive (large mobilisation of inefficiently used capital, labor, energy and raw material inputs) rather than intensive (efficient resource use) development to attempt to achieve quick growth.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;hardt15&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;bideleux474&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; The Eastern Bloc countries were required to follow the Soviet model overemphasising [[heavy industry]] at the expense of light industry and other sectors.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton251&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Crampton|1997|p=251}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since that model involved the prodigal exploitation of natural and other resources, it has been described as a kind of &amp;quot;slash and burn&amp;quot; modality.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;bideleux474&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; While the Soviet system strove for a [[dictatorship of the proletariat]], there was little existing proletariat in many eastern European countries, such that to create one, heavy industry needed to be built.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton251&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Each system shared the distinctive themes of state-directed economies, including poorly defined property rights, a lack of market clearing prices and overblown or distorted productive capacities in comparison with corresponding market economies.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;hardt11&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Major errors and waste occurred in the resource allocation and distribution systems.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;bideleux475&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Because of the party-run monolithic state organs, these systems provided no effective mechanisms or incentives to control costs, profligacy, inefficiency and waste.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;bideleux475&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Heavy industry was given priority because of its importance for the military-industrial establishment and for the engineering sector.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;turnock29&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Turnock|1997|p=29}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Factories were sometimes inefficiently located, incurring high transport costs, while poor plant-organisation sometimes resulted in production hold-ups and knock-on effects in other industries dependent on monopoly suppliers of intermediates.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;turnock24&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; For example, each country, including [[People&#039;s Republic of Albania|Albania]], built steel mills regardless of whether they lacked the requisite resource of energy and mineral ores.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton251&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; A massive metallurgical plant was built in [[People&#039;s Republic of Bulgaria|Bulgaria]] despite the fact that its ores had to be imported from the Soviet Union and transported {{convert|320|km}} from the port at [[Burgas]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton251&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; A Warsaw tractor factory in 1980 had a 52-page list of unused rusting, then useless, equipment.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton251&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This emphasis on heavy industry diverted investment from the more practical production of chemicals and plastics.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;frucht382&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Frucht|2003|p=382}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; In addition, the plans&#039; emphasis on quantity rather than quality made Eastern Bloc products less competitive in the world market.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;frucht382&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; High costs passed through the product chain boosted the &#039;value&#039; of production on which wage increases were based, but made exports less competitive.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;turnock24&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Planners rarely closed old factories even when new capacities opened elsewhere.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;turnock24&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; For example, the Polish steel industry retained a plant in [[Upper Silesia]] despite the opening of modern integrated units on the periphery while the last old [[Siemens-Martin process]] furnace installed in the 19th century was not closed down immediately.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;turnock24&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Producer goods were favoured over consumer goods, causing consumer goods to be lacking in quantity and quality in the [[shortage economy|shortage economies]] that resulted.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;dale85&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;bideleux474&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By the mid-1970s, budget deficits rose considerably and domestic prices widely diverged from the world prices, while production prices averaged 2% higher than consumer prices.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;zwass12&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Zwass|1984|p=12}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Many premium goods could be bought either in a [[Second economy of the Soviet Union|black market]] or only in special stores using foreign currency generally inaccessible to most Eastern Bloc citizens, such as [[Intershop]] in [[East Germany]],&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;zwass34&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; [[Beryozka (Russian retail store)|Beryozka]] in the Soviet Union,&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Adelman, Deborah, &#039;&#039;The &amp;quot;children of Perestroika&amp;quot; come of age: young people of Moscow talk about life in the new Russia&#039;&#039;, M.E.

Much of what was produced for the local population never reached its intended user, while many perishable products became unfit for consumption before reaching their consumers.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;bideleux475&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Black markets===&lt;br /&gt;
{{See also|Second economy of the Soviet Union}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As a result of the deficiencies of the official economy, [[black market]]s were created that were often supplied by goods stolen from the public sector.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton252&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Crampton|1997|p=252}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;frucht204&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Frucht|2003|p=204}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The [[informal sector|second, &amp;quot;parallel economy&amp;quot;]] flourished throughout the Bloc because of rising unmet state consumer needs.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;bugajski188&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Bugajski|Pollack|1989|p=188}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Black and gray markets for foodstuffs, goods, and cash arose.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;bugajski188&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Goods included household goods, medical supplies, clothes, furniture, cosmetics and toiletries in chronically short supply through official outlets.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;bugajski189&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Many farmers concealed actual output from purchasing agencies to sell it illicitly to urban consumers.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;bugajski189&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Hard foreign currencies were highly sought after, while highly valued Western items functioned as a medium of exchange or bribery in Stalinist countries, such as in [[People&#039;s Republic of Romania|Romania]], where [[Kent (cigarette)|Kent]] cigarettes served as an unofficial extensively used currency to buy goods and services.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;bugajski190&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Bugajski|Pollack|1989|p=190}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Some service workers [[wikt:moonlight#Verb|moonlighted]] illegally providing services directly to customers for payment.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;bugajski190&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Urbanization===&lt;br /&gt;
The extensive production [[industrialization]] that resulted was not responsive to consumer needs and caused a neglect in the service sector, unprecedented rapid urbanization, acute urban overcrowding, chronic shortages, and massive recruitment of women into mostly menial and/or low-paid occupations.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;bideleux475&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; The consequent strains resulted in the widespread used of coercion, repression, [[show trials]], purges, and intimidation.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;bideleux475&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Bideleux|Jeffries|2007|p=475}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; By 1960, massive urbanisation occurred in Poland (48% urban) and Bulgaria (38%), which increased employment for peasants, but also caused illiteracy to skyrocket when children left school for work.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;bideleux475&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cities became massive building sites, resulting in the reconstruction of some war-torn buildings but also the construction of drab, dilapidated, system-built apartment blocks.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;bideleux475&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Urban living standards plummeted because resources were tied up in huge long-term building projects, while industrialization forced millions of former peasants to live in hut camps or grim apartment blocks close to massive polluting industrial complexes.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;bideleux475&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Agricultural collectivization===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Bundesarchiv Bild 183-1987-0122-023, Infografik, Landwirtschaft der DDR Getreideerträge.jpg|thumb|left|upright|Graphic showing change in [[East Germany|East German]] agricultural production between 1981 and 1986]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[Collectivization]] is a process pioneered by [[Joseph Stalin]] in the late 1920s by which [[Marxism–Leninism|Marxist–Leninist]] regimes in the Eastern Bloc and elsewhere attempted to establish an ordered socialist system in rural agriculture.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;frucht144&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Frucht|2003|p=144}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; It required the forced consolidation of small-scale peasant farms and larger holdings belonging to the landed classes for the purpose of creating larger modern &amp;quot;[[collective farms]]&amp;quot; owned, in theory, by the workers therein. In reality, such farms were owned by the state.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;frucht144&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In addition to eradicating the perceived inefficiencies associated with small-scale farming on discontiguous land holdings, collectivization also purported to achieve the political goal of removing the rural basis for resistance to Stalinist regimes.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;frucht144&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; A further justification given was the need to promote industrial development by facilitating the state&#039;s procurement of agricultural products and transferring &amp;quot;surplus labor&amp;quot; from rural to urban areas.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;frucht144&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; In short, agriculture was reorganized in order to proletarianize the peasantry and control production at prices determined by the state.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;turnock34&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Eastern Bloc possesses substantial agricultural resources, especially in southern areas, such as [[People&#039;s Republic of Hungary|Hungary]]&#039;s [[Great Hungarian Plain|Great Plain]], which offered good soils and a warm climate during the growing season.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;turnock34&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Turnock|1997|p=34}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Rural collectivization proceeded differently in non-Soviet Eastern Bloc countries than it did in the Soviet Union in the 1920s and 1930s.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;bideleux473&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Because of the need to conceal the assumption of control and the realities of an initial lack of control, no Soviet [[dekulakisation]]-style liquidation of rich peasants could be carried out in the non-Soviet Eastern Bloc countries.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;bideleux473&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Bideleux|Jeffries|2007|p=473}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Nor could they risk mass starvation or agricultural sabotage (e.g., [[holodomor]]) with a rapid collectivization through massive state farms and agricultural producers&#039; cooperatives (APCs).&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;bideleux473&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Instead, collectivization proceeded more slowly and in stages from 1948 to 1960 in Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary, Czechoslovakia, and East Germany, and from 1955 to 1964 in Albania.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;bideleux473&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Collectivization in the Baltic republics of the [[Lithuanian SSR]], [[Estonian SSR]] and [[Latvian SSR]] took place between 1947 and 1952.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;oconnorxx&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|O&#039;Connor|2003|p=xx–xxi}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike Soviet collectivization, neither massive destruction of livestock nor errors causing distorted output or distribution occurred in the other Eastern Bloc countries.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;bideleux473&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; More widespread use of transitional forms occurred, with differential compensation payments for peasants that contributed more land to APCs.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;bideleux473&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Because [[Czechoslovak Socialist Republic|Czechoslovakia]] and [[East Germany]] were more industrialized than the Soviet Union, they were in a position to furnish most of the equipment and fertilizer inputs needed to ease the transition to collectivized agriculture.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;bideleux474&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Bideleux|Jeffries|2007|p=474}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Instead of liquidating large farmers or barring them from joining APCs as Stalin had done through [[dekulakisation]], those farmers were utilised in the non-Soviet Eastern Bloc collectivizations, sometimes even being named farm chairman or managers.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;bideleux474&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Collectivisation often met with strong rural resistance, including peasants frequently destroying property rather than surrendering it to the collectives.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;frucht144&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Strong peasant links with the land through private ownership were broken and many young people left for careers in industry.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;turnock34&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; In [[People&#039;s Republic of Poland|Poland]] and [[Federal People&#039;s Republic of Yugoslavia|Yugoslavia]], fierce resistance from peasants, many of whom had resisted the Axis, led to the abandonment of wholesale rural collectivisation in the early 1950s.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;bideleux474&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; In part because of the problems created by collectivisation, agriculture was largely de-collectivised in Poland in 1957.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;frucht144&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The fact that Poland nevertheless managed to carry out large-scale centrally planned industrialisation with no more difficulty than its collectivised Eastern Bloc neighbours further called into question the need for collectivisation in such planned economies.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;bideleux474&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Only Poland&#039;s &amp;quot;western territories&amp;quot;, those eastwardly adjacent to the [[Oder-Neisse line]] that were annexed from Germany, were substantially collectivised, largely in order to settle large numbers of Poles on good farmland which had been taken from German farmers.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;bideleux474&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

There was significant progress made in the economy in countries such as the Soviet Union. In 1980, the Soviet Union took first place in Europe and second worldwide in terms of industrial and agricultural production, respectively. In 1960, the USSR&#039;s industrial output was only 55% that of America, but this increased to 80% in 1980.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ria.ru&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;{{unreliable source?|date=February 2021}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With the change of the Soviet leadership in 1964, there were [[1965 Soviet economic reform|significant changes made to economic policy]]. The Government on 30 September 1965 issued a decree &amp;quot;On improving the management of industry&amp;quot; and the 4 October 1965 resolution &amp;quot;On improving and strengthening the economic incentives for industrial production&amp;quot;. The main initiator of these reforms was Premier [[Alexei Kosygin]]. Kosygin&#039;s reforms on agriculture gave considerable autonomy to the collective farms, giving them the right to the contents of private farming. During this period, there was the large-scale land reclamation program, the construction of irrigation channels, and other measures.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ria.ru&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; In the period 1966–1970, the gross national product grew by over 35%. Industrial output increased by 48% and agriculture by 17%.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ria.ru&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; In the eighth Five-Year Plan, the national income grew at an average rate of 7.8%. In the ninth Five-Year Plan (1971–1975), the national income grew at an annual rate of 5.7%. In the tenth Five-Year Plan (1976–1981), the national income grew at an annual rate of 4.3%.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ria.ru&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Soviet Union made noteworthy scientific and technological progress. Unlike countries with more market-oriented economies, scientific and technological potential in the USSR was used in accordance with a plan on the scale of society as a whole.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Aleksandr Andreevich Guber. USSR: Intensified Economy and Progress in Science and Technology. Novosti Press Agency Publishing House, 1985. p. 14&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 1980, the number of scientific personnel in the USSR was 1.4&amp;amp;nbsp;million. The number of engineers employed in the national economy was 4.7&amp;amp;nbsp;million. Between 1960 and 1980, the number of scientific personnel increased by a factor of 4. In 1975, the number of scientific personnel in the USSR amounted to one-fourth of the total number of scientific personnel in the world. In 1980, as compared with 1940, the number of invention proposals submitted was more than 5&amp;amp;nbsp;million. In 1980, there were 10 all-Union research institutes, 85 specialised central agencies, and 93 regional information centres.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Yearbook the USSR.

The world&#039;s first nuclear power plant was commissioned on 27 June 1954 in Obninsk.{{citation needed|date=February 2023}} Soviet scientists made a major contribution to the development of computer technology. The first major achievements in the field were associated with the building of analog computers. In the USSR, principles for the construction of network analysers were developed by S. Gershgorin in 1927 and the concept of the electrodynamic analog computer was proposed by N. Minorsky in 1936. In the 1940s, the development of AC electronic antiaircraft directors and the first vacuum-tube integrators was begun by L. Gutenmakher. In the 1960s, important developments in modern computer equipment were the BESM-6 system built under the direction of S. A. Lebedev, the MIR series of small digital computers, and the Minsk series of digital computers developed by G.Lopato and V. Przhyalkovsky.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |url=http://www.computer.org/portal/web/awards/lebedev |title=Sergey A.

Catering to western visitors required creating an environment of an entirely different standard than that used for the domestic populace, which required concentration of travel spots including the building of relatively high-quality infrastructure in travel complexes, which could not easily be replicated elsewhere.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;turnock45&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Because of a desire to preserve ideological discipline and the fear of the presence of wealthier foreigners engaging in differing lifestyles, [[People&#039;s Republic of Albania|Albania]] segregated travelers.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;2turnock350&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Turnock|2006|p=350}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Because of the worry of the subversive effect of the tourist industry, travel was restricted to 6,000 visitors per year.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;turnock48&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Turnock|1997|p=48}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

====Growth rates====&lt;br /&gt;
Growth rates in the Eastern Bloc were initially high in the 1950s and 1960s.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;turnock23&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; During this first period, progress was rapid by European standards and per capita growth within the Eastern Bloc increased by 2.4 times the European average.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;turnock24&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Eastern Europe accounted for 12.3 percent of European production in 1950 but 14.4 in 1970.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;turnock24&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; However, the system was resistant to change and did not easily adapt to new conditions. For political reasons, old factories were rarely closed, even when new technologies became available.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;turnock24&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; As a result, after the 1970s, growth rates within the bloc experienced relative decline.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;hardt16&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Hardt|Kaufman|1995|p=16}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Meanwhile, West Germany, Austria, France and other Western European nations experienced increased economic growth in the [[Wirtschaftswunder]] (&amp;quot;economic miracle&amp;quot;), [[Trente Glorieuses]] (&amp;quot;thirty glorious years&amp;quot;) and the [[post-World War II boom]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
From the end of World War II to the mid-1970s, the economy of the Eastern Bloc steadily increased at the same rate as the economy in Western Europe, with the non-reformist Stalinist nations of the Eastern Bloc having a stronger economy than the reformist-Stalinist states.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Teichova|Matis|2003|p=152}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; While most western European economies essentially began to approach the [[per capita]] [[gross domestic product]] (GDP) levels of the United States during the late 1970s and early 1980s, the Eastern Bloc countries did not,&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;hardt16&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; with per capita GDPs trailing significantly behind their comparable western European counterparts.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;hardt17&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Hardt|Kaufman|1995|p=17}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

While it can be argued the [[World Bank]] estimates of GDP used for 1990 figures underestimate Eastern Bloc GDP because of undervalued local currencies, per capita incomes were undoubtedly lower than in their counterparts.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;hardt17&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; [[East Germany]] was the most advanced industrial nation of the Eastern Bloc.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;zwass34&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Zwass|1984|p=34}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Until the building of the Berlin Wall in 1961, East Germany was considered a weak state, hemorrhaging skilled labor to the West such that it was referred to as &amp;quot;the disappearing satellite&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;graubard8&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Graubard|1991|p=8}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Only after the wall sealed in skilled labor was East Germany able to ascend to the top economic spot in the Eastern Bloc.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;graubard8&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Thereafter, its citizens enjoyed a higher quality of life and fewer shortages in the supply of goods than those in the Soviet Union, Poland or Romania.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;zwass34&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While official statistics painted a relatively rosy picture, the [[Economy of the German Democratic Republic|East German economy]] had eroded because of increased central planning, economic autarky, the use of coal over oil, investment concentration in a few selected technology-intensive areas and labor market regulation.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;lipschitz52&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Lipschitz|McDonald|1990|p=52}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; As a result, a large productivity gap of nearly 50% per worker existed between East and West Germany.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;lipschitz52&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Teichova72&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; However, that gap does not measure the quality of design of goods or service such that the actual per capita rate may be as low as 14 to 20 per cent.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Teichova72&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Average gross monthly wages in East Germany were around 30% of those in West Germany, though after accounting for taxation the figures approached 60%.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;lipschitz53&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Lipschitz|McDonald|1990|p=53}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Moreover, the purchasing power of wages differed greatly, with only about half of East German households owning either a car or a color television set as late as 1990, both of which had been standard possessions in West German households.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;lipschitz53&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; The &#039;&#039;[[East German mark|Ostmark]]&#039;&#039; was only valid for transactions inside East Germany, could not be legally exported or imported&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;lipschitz53&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; and could not be used in the East German [[Intershop]]s which sold premium goods.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;zwass34&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; In 1989, 11% of the East German labor force remained in agriculture, 47% was in the secondary sector and 42% in services.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Teichova72&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Teichova|Matis|2003|p=72}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once installed, the economic system was difficult to change given the importance of politically reliable management and the prestige value placed on large enterprises.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;turnock24&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Turnock|1997|p=24}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Performance declined during the 1970s and 1980s due to inefficiency when industrial input costs, such as energy prices, increased.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;turnock24&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Though growth lagged behind the West, it did occur.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;frucht382&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Consumer goods started to become more available by the 1960s.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;frucht382&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Before the Eastern Bloc&#039;s dissolution, some major sectors of industry were operating at such a loss that they exported products to the West at prices below the real value of the raw materials.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;turnock25&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Turnock|1997|p=25}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; [[People&#039;s Republic of Hungary|Hungarian]] steel costs doubled those of western Europe.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;turnock25&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; In 1985, a quarter of Hungary&#039;s state budget was spent on supporting inefficient enterprises.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;turnock25&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Tight planning in [[People&#039;s Republic of Bulgaria|Bulgaria]]&#039;s industry meant continuing shortages in other parts of its economy.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;turnock25&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

===Development policies===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Wohnbebauung-Ernst-Thaelmann-Park-09-2018c.jpg|left|thumb|[[East Germany|East German]] [[Plattenbau]] apartment blocks]]&lt;br /&gt;
In social terms, the 18 years (1964–1982) of Brezhnev&#039;s leadership saw real incomes grow more than 1.5 times. More than 1.6 billion square metres of living space were commissioned and provided to over 160&amp;amp;nbsp;million people. At the same time, the average rent for families did not exceed 3% of the family income. There was unprecedented affordability of housing, health care and education.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ria.ru&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In a survey by the Sociological Research Institute of the USSR Academy of Sciences in 1986, 75% of those surveyed said that they were better off than the previous ten years. Over 95% of Soviet adults considered themselves &amp;quot;fairly well off&amp;quot;. 55% of those surveyed felt that medical services improved, 46% believed public transportation had improved and 48% said that the standard of services provided public service establishments had risen.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Update USSR, Vol. 53. April 1986. N.W.R. Publications. p. 11&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During the years 1957–1965, housing policy underwent several institutional changes with industrialisation and urbanisation had not been matched by an increase in housing after World War II.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince36&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Sillince|1990|pp=36–37}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Housing shortages in the Soviet Union were worse than in the rest of the Eastern Bloc due to a larger migration to the towns and more wartime devastation and were worsened by Stalin&#039;s pre-war refusals to invest properly in housing.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince36&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Because such investment was generally not enough to sustain the existing population, apartments had to be subdivided into increasingly smaller units, resulting in several families sharing an apartment previously meant for one family.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince36&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The prewar norm became one Soviet family per room, with the toilets and kitchen shared.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince36&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; The amount of living space in urban areas fell from 5.7 square metres per person in 1926 to 4.5 square metres in 1940.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince36&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; In the rest of the Eastern Bloc during this time period, the average number of people per room was 1.8 in [[People&#039;s Republic of Bulgaria|Bulgaria]] (1956), 2.0 in [[Czechoslovak Socialist Republic|Czechoslovakia]] (1961), 1.5 in [[People&#039;s Republic of Hungary|Hungary]] (1963), 1.7 in [[People&#039;s Republic of Poland|Poland]] (1960), 1.4 in [[Socialist Republic of Romania|Romania]] (1966), 2.4 in [[Federal People&#039;s Republic of Yugoslavia|Yugoslavia]] (1961) and 0.9 in 1961 in [[East Germany]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince36&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After Stalin&#039;s death in 1953, forms of an economic &amp;quot;New Course&amp;quot; brought a revival of private house construction.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince36&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Private construction peaked in 1957–1960 in many Eastern Bloc countries and then declined simultaneously along with a steep increase in state and co-operative housing.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince36&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; By 1960, the rate of housebuilding per head had picked up in all countries in the Eastern Bloc.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince36&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Between 1950 and 1975, worsening shortages were generally caused by a fall in the proportion of all investment made housing.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince48&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Sillince|1990|p=748}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; However, during that period the total number of dwellings increased.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince49&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Sillince|1990|p=49}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During the last fifteen years of this period (1960–1975), an emphasis was made for a supply side solution, which assumed that industrialised building methods and high rise housing would be cheaper and quicker than traditional brick-built, low-rise housing.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince49&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Such methods required manufacturing organisations to produce the [[prefabricated]] components and organisations to assemble them on site, both of which planners assumed would employ large numbers of unskilled workers-with powerful political contacts.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince49&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; The lack of participation of eventual customers, the residents, constituted one factor in escalating construction costs and poor quality work.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince50&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Sillince|1990|p=50}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; This led to higher demolition rates and higher costs to repair poorly constructed dwellings.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince50&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; In addition, because of poor quality work, a black market arose for building services and materials that could not be procured from state monopolies.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince50&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In most countries, completions (new dwellings constructed) rose to a high point between 1975 and 1980 and then fell as a result presumably of worsening international economic conditions.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince7&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Sillince|1990|p=7}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; This occurred in Bulgaria, Hungary, East Germany, Poland, Romania (with an earlier peak in 1960 also), Czechoslovakia and Yugoslavia while the Soviet Union peaked in 1960 and 1970.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince7&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; While between 1975 and 1986, the proportion of investment devoted to housing actually rose in most of the Eastern Bloc, general economic conditions resulted in total investment amounts falling or becoming stagnant.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince48&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The employment of socialist ideology in housing policy declined in the 1980s, which accompanied a shift in authorities looking at the need of residents to an examination of potential residents&#039; ability to pay.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince48&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Yugoslavia was unique in that it continuously mixed private and state sources of housing finance, stressed self-managed building co-operatives along with central government controls.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince48&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

These are official housing figures and may be low. For example, in the Soviet Union the figure of 26,662,400 in 1986 almost certainly underestimates shortages for the reason that it does not count shortages from large Soviet rural-urban migration; another calculation estimates shortages to be 59,917,900.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince17&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Sillince|1990|p=17}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; By the late 1980s, [[People&#039;s Republic of Poland|Poland]] had an average 20-year wait time for housing while Warsaw had between a 26- and 50-year wait time.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince27&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Sillince|1990|p=27}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;turnock25&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; In the Soviet Union, widespread illegal subletting occurred at exorbitant rates.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince33&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Sillince|1990|p=33}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Toward the end of the Eastern Bloc allegations of misallocations and illegal distribution of housing were raised in Soviet [[CPSU]] Central Committee meetings.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince33&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In [[People&#039;s Republic of Poland|Poland]], housing problems were caused by slow rates of construction, poor home quality (which was even more pronounced in villages) and a large black market.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince2&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; In [[People&#039;s Republic of Romania|Romania]], social engineering policy and concern about the use of agricultural land forced high densities and high-rise housing designs.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Sillince|1990|p=3}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; In [[People&#039;s Republic of Bulgaria|Bulgaria]], a prior emphasis on monolithic high-rise housing lessened somewhat in the 1970s and 1980s.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince3&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; In the Soviet Union, housing was perhaps the primary social problem.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince3&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; While Soviet housing construction rates were high, quality was poor and demolition rates were high, in part because of an inefficient building industry and lack of both quality and quantity of construction materials.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince3&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[East Germany|East German]] housing suffered from a lack of quality and a lack of skilled labor, with a shortage of materials, plot and permits.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince4&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvard citation no brackets|Sillince|1990|p=4}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; In staunchly Stalinist [[People&#039;s Republic of Albania|Albania]], housing blocks (&#039;&#039;panelka&#039;&#039;) were spartan, with six-story walk-ups being the most frequent design.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince4&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Housing was allocated by workplace trade unions and built by voluntary labor organised into brigades within the workplace.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince4&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; [[Federal People&#039;s Republic of Yugoslavia|Yugoslavia]] suffered from fast urbanisation, uncoordinated development and poor organisation resulting from a lack of hierarchical structure and clear accountability, low building productivity, the monopoly position of building enterprises and irrational credit policies.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;sillince4&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

{{main|Uprising of 1953 in East Germany}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Three months after the death of [[Joseph Stalin]], a dramatic increase of emigration ([[Republikflucht]], [[brain drain]]) occurred from [[East Germany]] in the first half-year of 1953. Large numbers of East Germans traveled west through the only &amp;quot;loophole&amp;quot; left in the [[Eastern Bloc emigration and defection|Eastern Bloc emigration restrictions]], the Berlin sector border.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton278&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Crampton|1997|p=278}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The East German government then raised &amp;quot;norms&amp;quot; – the amount each worker was required to produce – by 10%.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton278&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Already disaffected East Germans, who could see the relative economic successes of West Germany within Berlin, became enraged.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton278&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Angry building workers initiated street protests, and were soon joined by others in a march to the Berlin trade union headquarters.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton278&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While no official spoke to them at that location, by 2:00&amp;amp;nbsp;pm, the East German government agreed to withdraw the &amp;quot;norm&amp;quot; increases.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton279&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; However, the crisis had already escalated such that the demands were now political, including free elections, disbanding the army and resignation of the government.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton279&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Crampton|1997|p=279}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; By 17 June, strikes were recorded in 317 locations involving approximately 400,000 workers.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton279&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; When strikers set ruling [[Socialist Unity Party of Germany|SED]] party buildings aflame and tore the flag from the [[Brandenburg Gate]], SED General Secretary [[Walter Ulbricht]] left Berlin.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton279&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A major emergency was declared and the Soviet [[Red Army]] stormed some important buildings.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton279&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Within hours, Soviet tanks arrived, but they did not immediately fire upon all workers.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton279&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Rather, a gradual pressure was applied.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton279&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Approximately 16 Soviet divisions with 20,000 soldiers from the [[Group of Soviet Forces in Germany]] using tanks, as well as 8,000 [[Kasernierte Volkspolizei]] members, were employed. Bloodshed could not be entirely avoided, with the official death toll standing at 21, while the actual casualty toll may have been much higher.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton279&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Thereafter, 20,000 arrests took place along with 40 executions.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton279&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
A period of political liberalization in [[Czechoslovak Socialist Republic|Czechoslovakia]] called the [[Prague Spring]] took place in 1968. The event was spurred by several events, including economic reforms that addressed an early 1960s economic downturn.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web| title = Photius.com, (info from CIA world Factbook)| url = http://www.photius.com/countries/slovakia/economy/czechoslovakia_economy_economic_policy_and_~777.html| publisher = Photius Coutsoukis| access-date = 20 January 2008| archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20090116152207/http://www.photius.com/countries/slovakia/economy/czechoslovakia_economy_economic_policy_and_~777.html| archive-date = 16 January 2009| url-status = live}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Williams5&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Williams|1997|p=5}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The event began on 5 January 1968, when reformist Slovak [[Alexander Dubček]] came to power. In April, Dubček launched an &amp;quot;[[Action Programme (1968)|Action Program]]&amp;quot; of liberalizations, which included increasing freedom of the press, freedom of speech and freedom of movement, along with an economic emphasis on [[consumer goods]], the possibility of a multiparty government and limiting the power of the secret police.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Ello (ed.), Paul (April 1968).

[[File:Cold_War_Map_1980.png|thumb|upright=1.35|The Cold War in 1980 before the [[Iran–Iraq War]]]]&lt;br /&gt;
Soviet control of the Eastern Bloc was first tested by the [[1948 Czechoslovak coup d&#039;état]] and the [[Tito–Stalin split]] over the direction of the [[People&#039;s Federal Republic of Yugoslavia]], the [[Chinese Communist Revolution]] (1949) and Chinese participation in the [[Korean War]]. After [[Stalin&#039;s death]] in 1953, the Korean War ceased with the [[1954 Geneva Conference]]. In [[Europe]], [[Anti-Sovietism|anti-Soviet sentiment]] provoked the [[East German uprising of 1953]]. [[Nikita Khrushchev]]&#039;s 1956 anti-Stalinist speech &#039;&#039;[[On the Cult of Personality and Its Consequences]]&#039;&#039; was a factor in the [[Hungarian Revolution of 1956]], which the Soviet Union suppressed, and the Sino–Soviet split. The Sino–Soviet split gave [[North Korea]] and [[North Vietnam]] more independence from both and facilitated the [[Albanian–Soviet split]]. The [[Cuban Missile Crisis]] and the failure of the [[Bay of Pigs Invasion]] preserved the [[Cuban Revolution]] from [[rollback]] by the United States but Cuban leader [[Fidel Castro]] became increasingly independent of Soviet influence afterwards, most notably during the 1975 [[Cuban intervention in Angola]].&amp;lt;ref name=Piero /&amp;gt; In 1975, the communist victory in former [[French Indochina]] following the end of the [[Vietnam War]] gave the Eastern Bloc renewed confidence after it had been frayed by [[Soviet leader]] [[Leonid Brezhnev]]&#039;s 1968 [[Warsaw Pact invasion of Czechoslovakia|invasion of Czechoslovakia]] to suppress the [[Prague Spring]]. This led to the [[People&#039;s Republic of Albania]] withdrawing from the [[Warsaw Pact]], briefly aligning with [[Mao Zedong]]&#039;s China until the [[Sino-Albanian split]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Under the [[Brezhnev Doctrine]], the Soviet Union reserved the right to intervene in other [[List of non-communist socialist states|socialist states]]. In response, China moved towards the United States following the [[Sino-Soviet border conflict]] and later started the [[reform and opening up]] while the Eastern Bloc saw the [[Era of Stagnation]] in comparison with the capitalist [[First World]]. The [[Soviet–Afghan War]] (24 December 1979 – 15 February 1989) nominally expanded the Eastern Bloc, but the war proved unwinnable and too costly for the Soviets, challenged in Eastern Europe by the [[civil resistance]] of &#039;&#039;[[Solidarity (Polish trade union)|Solidarity]]&#039;&#039;. In the late 1980s, Soviet leader [[Mikhail Gorbachev]] pursued policies of &#039;&#039;[[glasnost]]&#039;&#039; (openness) and &#039;&#039;[[perestroika]]&#039;&#039; (restructuring) to reform the Eastern Bloc and end the Cold War, which brought forth unrest throughout the bloc.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During the mid-to-late 1980s, the weakened Soviet Union gradually stopped interfering in the internal affairs of Eastern Bloc nations and numerous independence movements took place.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:President Ronald Reagan and Soviet General Secretary Mikhail Gorbachev at the first Summit in Geneva, Switzerland.jpg|thumb|Soviet General Secretary [[Mikhail Gorbachev]], who sought to end the Cold War between the Soviet-led [[Warsaw Pact]] and the United States-led [[NATO]] and its other Western allies, in a meeting with President [[Ronald Reagan]]]]&lt;br /&gt;
Following the [[Brezhnev stagnation]], the reform-minded Soviet leader [[Mikhail Gorbachev]] in 1985 signaled the trend towards greater liberalization. Gorbachev rejected the Brezhnev Doctrine, which held that Moscow would intervene if socialism were threatened in any state.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton338&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Crampton|1997|p=338}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; He announced what was jokingly called the &amp;quot;[[Sinatra Doctrine]]&amp;quot; after the singer&#039;s &amp;quot;My Way&amp;quot; to allow the countries of [[Central and Eastern Europe]] to determine their own internal affairs during this period.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gorbachev initiated a policy of &#039;&#039;[[glasnost]]&#039;&#039; (openness) in the Soviet Union, and emphasized the need for &#039;&#039;[[perestroika]]&#039;&#039; (economic restructuring). The Soviet Union was struggling economically after the long war in Afghanistan and did not have the resources to control Central and Eastern Europe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The start of the disintegration of the Eastern Bloc can be attributed to [[1989 Polish parliamentary election|June 1989 Polish parliamentary election]], to the [[Removal of Hungary&#039;s border fence with Austria|opening of a border gate]] between [[Austria]] and [[Hungary]] at the [[Pan-European Picnic]] on 19 August 1989, and to the fact that the Hungarian Government granted 108 GDR citizens permission to cross the [[Iron Curtain]]. These citizens had stayed in the [[Embassy of Germany, Budapest|Embassy of Western Germany in Budapest]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[https://www.bundesregierung.de/breg-de/schwerpunkte-der-bundesregierung/deutsche-einheit/ungarn-laesst-108-ddr-buerger-ausreisen-459164 &#039;&#039;Ungarn lässt 108 DDR-Bürger ausreisen&#039;&#039;]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; This permission became publicly known. Nine days later, 1,400 had come to the Embassy, on 2 September there were 3,500 and on 4 September 4,700 GDR citizens.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |url=https://www.bundesregierung.de/breg-de/schwerpunkte-der-bundesregierung/deutsche-einheit/fluechtlinge-stroemen-weiter-nach-ungarn-459148 |title=Flüchtlinge strömen weiter nach Ungarn |language=de |publisher=Die Bundesregierung  |date=4 September 1989 |access-date=15 January 2025}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; At the evening of 9 September 1989, Hungary opened its border to Austria for all GDR citizens.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On 3 October 1990 [[German reunification|East Germany reunited with West Germany]] following the November 1989 [[fall of the Berlin Wall]]. Unlike previous Soviet leaders in [[East German uprising of 1953|1953]], [[Hungarian Revolution of 1956|1956]] and [[Prague Spring|1968]], Gorbachev refused to use force to end the [[Revolutions of 1989|1989 Revolutions]] against [[Marxism–Leninism|Marxist–Leninist]] rule in Eastern Europe. The [[fall of the Berlin Wall]] and [[Warsaw Pact#End of the Cold War|end of the Warsaw Pact]] spread [[Nationalism|nationalist]] and [[Liberalism|liberal]] ideals throughout the Soviet Union. In 1991, Conservative communist elites launched a [[1991 Soviet coup d&#039;état attempt]], which hastened the end of Marxist–Leninist rule in Eastern Europe. However, the [[1989 Tiananmen Square protests]] in [[China]] were violently repressed by the communist government there, which maintained its grip on power.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 1989, [[Revolutions of 1989|a wave of revolutions]], sometimes called the &amp;quot;Autumn of Nations&amp;quot;,{{Cn|date=August 2024}} swept across the Eastern Bloc.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Szafarz-221&amp;quot;&amp;gt;E.

Major reforms occurred in [[People&#039;s Republic of Hungary|Hungary]] following the replacement of [[János Kádár]] as General Secretary of the Communist Party in 1988.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton381&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Crampton|1997|p=381}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; In [[People&#039;s Republic of Poland|Poland]] in April 1989, the [[Solidarity (Polish trade union)|Solidarity]] organization was legalized and allowed to participate in parliamentary elections.

[[File:Oliver Mark - Otto Habsburg-Lothringen, Pöcking 2006.jpg|thumb|upright|[[Otto von Habsburg]], who played a leading role in opening the Iron Curtain]]&lt;br /&gt;
The opening of the [[Iron Curtain]] between Austria and Hungary at the [[Pan-European Picnic]] on 19 August 1989 then set in motion a chain reaction, at the end of which there was [[German reunification|East Germany]] and the [[#dissolution|Eastern Bloc had disintegrated]].&lt;br /&gt;
Extensive advertising for the planned picnic was made by posters and flyers among the GDR holidaymakers in Hungary. The Austrian branch of the [[Paneuropean Union]], which was then headed by [[Karl von Habsburg]], distributed thousands of brochures inviting them to a picnic near the border at [[Sopron]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Hilde Szabo: &#039;&#039;Die Berliner Mauer begann im Burgenland zu bröckeln&#039;&#039; (The Berlin Wall began to crumble in Burgenland – German), in [[Wiener Zeitung]] 16 August 1999; Otmar Lahodynsky: &#039;&#039;Paneuropäisches Picknick: Die Generalprobe für den Mauerfall&#039;&#039; (Pan-European picnic: the dress rehearsal for the fall of the Berlin Wall – German), in: &#039;&#039;Profil&#039;&#039; 9 August 2014.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Ludwig Greven &amp;quot;Und dann ging das Tor auf&amp;quot;, in Die Zeit, 19 August 2014.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
It was the largest escape movement from East Germany since the time before the Berlin Wall was built in 1961. After the picnic, which was based on an idea by [[Otto von Habsburg]] to test the reaction of the [[USSR]] and [[Mikhail Gorbachev]] to an opening of the border, tens of thousands of media-informed East Germans set off for Hungary.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Miklós Németh in Interview, Austrian TV – ORF &amp;quot;Report&amp;quot;, 25 June 2019.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Hungary was then no longer prepared to keep its borders completely closed or to commit its border troops to use force of arms. [[Erich Honecker]] dictated to the Daily Mirror for the Paneuropa Picnic: &amp;quot;Habsburg distributed leaflets far into Poland, on which the East German holidaymakers were invited to a picnic. When they came to the picnic, they were given gifts, food and Deutsche Mark, and then they were persuaded to come to the West&amp;quot;. The leadership of the GDR in East Berlin did not dare to completely block the borders of their own country and the USSR did not respond at all. Thus the bracket of the Eastern Bloc was broken.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Otmar Lahodynsky &amp;quot;Eiserner Vorhang: Picknick an der Grenze&amp;quot; (Iron curtain: picnic at the border – German), in Profil 13 June 2019.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Thomas Roser: DDR-Massenflucht: Ein Picknick hebt die Welt aus den Angeln (German – Mass exodus of the GDR: A picnic clears the world) in: Die Presse 16 August 2018.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Andreas Rödder, Deutschland einig Vaterland – Die Geschichte der Wiedervereinigung (2009).&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

On 9 November 1989, following mass protests in [[East Germany]] and the relaxing of border restrictions in Czechoslovakia, tens of thousands of Eastern Berliners flooded checkpoints along the Berlin Wall and crossed into West Berlin.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton394&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Crampton|1997|pp=394–5}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Parts of the wall were torn down, leading to the [[reunification of Germany]] on 3 October 1990; around this time, most of the remains of the wall were torn down. In [[People&#039;s Republic of Bulgaria|Bulgaria]], the day after the mass crossings through the Berlin Wall, the leader [[Todor Zhivkov]] was ousted by his Politburo and replaced with [[Petar Mladenov]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton395&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Crampton|1997|pp=395–6}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In [[Czechoslovak Socialist Republic|Czechoslovakia]], following protests of an estimated half-million Czechs and Slovaks demanding freedoms and a [[general strike]], the authorities, which had allowed travel to the West, abolished provisions guaranteeing the ruling Communist Party its leading role.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton398&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Crampton|1997|p=398}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; President [[Gustáv Husák]] appointed the first largely non-Communist government in Czechoslovakia since 1948 and resigned in what was called the [[Velvet Revolution]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton398&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since 1971, [[Socialist Republic of Romania|Romania]] had [[July Theses|reversed]] the program of [[De-Stalinization in Romania|de-Stalinization]]. Following growing [[Romanian Revolution|public protests]], dictator [[Nicolae Ceaușescu]] ordered a [[Romanian Revolution|mass rally]] in his support outside Communist Party headquarters in [[Bucharest]], but mass protests against Ceaușescu proceeded.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton399&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Crampton|1997|p=399}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The Romanian military sided with protesters and turned on Ceaușescu. They [[Trial and execution of Nicolae and Elena Ceaușescu|executed him]] after a brief trial three days later.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;crampton400&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Harvnb|Crampton|1997|p=400}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Even before the Eastern Bloc&#039;s last years, all of the countries in the Warsaw Pact did not always act as a unified bloc. For instance, the [[Warsaw Pact invasion of Czechoslovakia|1968 invasion of Czechoslovakia]] was [[Ceaușescu&#039;s speech of 21 August 1968|condemned]] by [[Socialist Republic of Romania|Romania]], which refused to take part in it. [[People&#039;s Republic of Albania|Albania]] withdrew from the Pact, and the Eastern Bloc altogether, in response to the invasion. In [[Cambodia]], [[communist rule]] ended in 1992 and monarchy was restored in 1993.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The only surviving communist states are China, Cuba, Laos, North Korea, and Vietnam. Their state-socialist experience was more in line with [[decolonization]] from the [[Global North]] and [[anti-imperialism]] towards the West instead of the [[Red Army]] occupation of the former Eastern Bloc. The five states all adopted [[economic reform]]s to varying degrees. China and Vietnam are usually described as more [[state capitalist]] than the more traditionalist Cuba, Laos, and North Korea. This was previously the case in [[Kazakhstan]] until 2022, [[Uzbekistan]] until 2016, [[Turkmenistan]] until 2006, [[Kyrgyzstan]] [[Tulip Revolution|until 2005]], [[Azerbaijan]] and [[Georgia (country)|Georgia]] [[Rose Revolution|until 2003]], [[Armenia]] until 1998, [[Moldova]] until 1997, [[Ukrainia]] and [[Belarus]] until 1994, [[Tajikistan]] until 1992. All presidents of [[post-Soviet Russia]] were members of the [[Communist Party of the Soviet Union]] ([[Boris Yeltsin]] before 1990, [[Vladimir Putin]] and [[Dmitry Medvedev]] before 1991). Azerbaijan is an [[authoritarian]] [[dominant-party state]] yet it has officially eliminated mentions of communism from its constitution.&lt;br /&gt;

By the time the Eastern Bloc fell, the economies of former Communist countries were dominated by obsolete and inefficient heavy industry that was largely uncompetitive in a market environment.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;East-Central European economies in transition&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The planned economies had long stifled innovation, and it often cost more to produce goods than the final product ultimately cost.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[https://documents1.worldbank.org/curated/en/664481468315296721/pdf/32692.pdf Economic Growth in the 1990s: Learning from a Decade of Reform] (2005) &#039;&#039;The World Bank&#039;&#039; p. 196&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; By the late 1980s, economic imbalances had reached critical levels, and there was a consensus on the need for reform. .&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Roaf, James, Ruben V.

Thus, every former Communist country experienced a period of economic recession, decline in industrial production, and during the transition to a market economy.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[https://documents1.worldbank.org/curated/en/664481468315296721/pdf/32692.pdf Economic Growth in the 1990s: Learning from a Decade of Reform] (2005) &#039;&#039;The World Bank&#039;&#039; pp. 196–197&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;  How deep this recession went, how long it lasted, and how fast a given country recovered depended on various domestic and international factors.&lt;br /&gt;

This economic decline was also linked to a wide variety of social consequences, including rising crime and poverty. These varied by country in severity and speed of recovery.

In 2016, the [[Right-libertarianism|libertarian]] think tank [[Cato Institute]] stated that the analyses done of post-communist countries in the 1990s were &amp;quot;premature&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;that early and rapid reformers by far outperformed gradual reformers&amp;quot; on [[Lists of countries by GDP per capita|GDP per capita]], the [[United Nations Human Development Index]], [[political freedom]], and developed better institutions.

It has been argued by several scholars that the cessation of the Socialist Bloc and the end of [[communism]] as a global hegemonic force allowed [[neoliberal]] [[capitalism]] to become the dominant global system, which has resulted in surging [[economic inequality]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book |last=Ghodsee |first=Kristen |author-link=Kristen Ghodsee |date=2018 |title=[[Why Women Have Better Sex Under Socialism]] |url= |location= |publisher=[[Vintage Books]] |pages=3–4 |isbn=978-1568588902|quote=Without the looming threat of a rival superpower, the last thirty years of global neoliberalism have witnessed a rapid shriveling of social programs that protect citizens from cyclical instability and financial crises and reduce the vast inequality of economic outcomes between those at the top and bottom of the income distribution.}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite journal |last1=Greene|first1=Julie|authorlink1= Julie Greene (historian) |date=April 2020|title=Bookends to a Gentler Capitalism: Complicating the Notion of First and Second Gilded Ages|url=|journal=[[The Journal of the Gilded Age and Progressive Era]] |volume=19 |issue=2 |publisher=[[Cambridge University Press]]|pages=197–205|doi=10.1017/S1537781419000628|pmc= |pmid= |access-date=}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book |last=Bartel |first=Fritz |date=2022 |title=The Triumph of Broken Promises: The End of the Cold War and the Rise of Neoliberalism |url=https://www.hup.harvard.edu/catalog.php?isbn=9780674976788 |publisher=[[Harvard University Press]] |isbn=9780674976788 |pages=5–6}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book |last=Gerstle |first=Gary |author-link=Gary Gerstle |date=2022 |title=The Rise and Fall of the Neoliberal Order: America and the World in the Free Market Era |url=https://global.oup.com/academic/product/the-rise-and-fall-of-the-neoliberal-order-9780197519646?cc=us&amp;amp;lang=en&amp;amp; |location= |publisher=[[Oxford University Press]] |pages=10–12, 149 |isbn=978-0-19-751964-6|quote=The collapse of communism, then, opened the entire world to capitalist penetration, shrank the imaginative and ideological space in which opposition to capitalist thought and practices might incubate, and impelled those who remained leftists to redefine their radicalism in alternative terms, which turned out to be those that capitalist systems could more, rather than less, easily manage.

In 2019, a Pew Research Survey on European public opinion asked citizens of Russia, Ukraine, Lithuania, Bulgaria, Poland, Czechia, Slovakia, Hungary and the former East Germany two questions: whether they approved of the change to a multi-party democracy, and whether they approved of the change to a market economy. The change to a multi-party democracy was approved by 85% of Poles and East Germans, 82% of Czechs, 74% of Slovaks, 72% of Hungarians, 70% of Lithuanians, 54% of Bulgarians, 51% of Ukrainians and 43% of Russians.

&lt;br /&gt;
In the late 1950s, China began to claim the Changlung river valley as its own territory. India established an outpost on a low pass overlooking the Nala Junction on 2 July 1962. Clashes occurred during the [[Sino-Indian War]] but the post held out.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During the [[2020–2022 China–India skirmishes|2020–2022 skirmishes]], the area around Gogra was again a scene of conflict, and continues to be a subject of active dispute between the two countries.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Diplomat&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{citation |author=Sudha Ramachandran |title=Indian and Chinese Troops Disengage from Gogra |newspaper=The Diplomat |date=8 August 2021 |url=https://thediplomat.com/2021/08/indian-and-chinese-troops-disengage-from-gogra/}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

The Changchenmo river flows through the depression, originating near [[Lanak La]] and joining the [[Shyok River]] in the west.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Immediately to the north of Chang Chenmo, the Karakoram range divides into multiple branches. The western branch lies between the [[Shyok River]] valley and the Kugrang valley, the middle branch between the Kugrang and Changlung valleys, and the eastern branch to the east of the Changlung valley.{{sfnp|Johri, Chinese Invasion of Ladakh|1969|p=106}} The Kugrang river flows southeast within the territory under present Indian control, joining the [[Chang Chenmo River]] near [[Hot Springs, Chang Chenmo Valley|Hot Springs]] (also called Kyam or Kayam).

&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The combined river of Kugrang and Changlung is much more voluminous than the Changchenmo stream flowing from Lanak La, so much so that [[Sven Hedin|Hedin]] regarded Changchenmo as a tributary of Kugrang.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Hedin Kograng&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{harvp|Hedin, Southern Tibet, Vol. IV|1922|pp=11–12}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Gogra thus forms a key link, connecting the Kugrang valley, Changlung valley and Chang Chenmo.&lt;br /&gt;
It was also called &amp;quot;Nala Junction&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Nullah Junction&amp;quot; (junction of rivers) by the Indian military in the 1950s and 1960s.{{sfnp|Johri, Chinese Invasion of Ladakh|1969|p=104}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Chang Chenmo river as well as its tributaries flow on gravel beds which are essentially barren. The valleys are dotted with occasional [[alluvium|alluvial]] patches where vegetation is found. Hot Springs and Gogra are two such patches. They were historical halting places for travellers and trading caravans, with a supply of water, fuel and fodder. Nomadic Ladakhi graziers also used them for grazing cattle.&amp;lt;ref name=Drew/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Eight miles to the north of Gogra along the Changlung valley is a second hot spring, currently known by its Chinese name &#039;&#039;&#039;Wenquan&#039;&#039;&#039; ({{zh|c=温泉|p=Wēnquán}}) [Changlung Hot Springs]. Here, a one-foot tall jet of hot water at 150&amp;amp;nbsp;°F is said to emanate from a rounded boulder. Several other warm springs are also present in the vicinity.{{sfnp|Gazetteer of Kashmir and Ladak|1890|p=327}} China established a military post at this location in 1962.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{harvp|Johri, Chinese Invasion of Ladakh|1969|p=55}}: &amp;quot;Having completed the Sumdo-Lingzithang road the Chinese troops established a post at 79°08&#039;00&amp;quot;E, 34°33&#039;00&amp;quot;N in the south of Nischu and named it &#039;&#039;&#039;Road JN&#039;&#039;&#039;.

=== Sino-Indian border dispute ===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Kongka Pass claim lines (1962).jpg|thumb|right|270px|Map 4: Chinese claim lines near the Chang Chenmo Valley: Green line in 1956, dark brown/orange in 1960 (US Army HQ, 1962)]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After India became independent in 1947 and China took control of Tibet in 1950, both the countries laid claim to the [[Aksai Chin]] plateau. In its 1956 border definition, China claimed the Chang Chenmo Valley up to the [[Kongka Pass]], near Kayam Hot Springs, but excluded the majority of the eastern Karakoram range. In particular, the Changlung valley, Shamal Lungpa campsite and the Wenquan hot spring were all left as Indian territory. (Map 4)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not recognising Chinese claims, India continued to send border patrols in &amp;quot;all directions&amp;quot;. In 1957, one party went via Gogra and Shamal Lungpa to [[Dehra Compass]], Sumdo and Karatagh Pass.{{sfnp|Mullik, The Chinese Betrayal|1971|p=200}} Finding telltale signs of Chinese activity, the border police decided to strengthen outposts by stocking them with essentials at Kayam Hot Springs and Shamal Lungpa.{{sfnp|Mullik, The Chinese Betrayal|1971|pp=200–201}} In 1958, the border police again used this route to go to the Sarigh Jilganang lake and to the Ladakh border, planting an Indian flag at the latter location.{{sfnp|Mullik, The Chinese Betrayal|1971|pp=201–202}} In 1959, a police party sent to set up police posts at Tsogtsalu, Hot Springs and Shamal Lungpa was confronted by Chinese troops when it tried to reconnoitre in the Chinese claimed area, and a serious clash occurred. The ensuing [[Kongka Pass incident]] exacerbated tensions between the two countries.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After the Kongka Pass incident, the two countries engaged in serious negotiations. A summit between the prime ministers [[Jawaharlal Nehru]] and [[Zhou Enlai]] was held in 1960, where Zhou is believed to have proposed  an &amp;quot;east west swap&amp;quot; of disputed territories. India is believed to have rejected such a barter.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{harvp|Hoffmann, India and the China Crisis|1990|p=86}}: &amp;quot;The prime minister had already made up his mind not to trade territory with the Chinese.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Sector-by-sector border discussions were held later in 1960 between the officials of the two countries, where China enlarged its border claims.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{harvp|Hoffmann, India and the China Crisis|1990|p=92}}: &amp;quot;[The Chinese map] indicated that the Chinese had substantially enlarged their claims to territory in the Western Sector.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; (See Map 4.) In the vicinity of the Kugrang valley, the Chinese officials declared:&lt;br /&gt;
{{blockquote|Thence [the traditional customary line] passes through peak 6,556 (approximately 78° 26&#039; E, 34° 32&#039; N), and runs along the watershed between the Kugrang Tsangpo River and its tributary the Changlung River to approximately 78° 53&#039; E, 34° 22&#039; N. where it crosses the Changlung River. It then follows the mountain ridge in a south-easterly direction up to Kongka Pass.{{sfnp|Report of the Officials|1962|loc=p. CR-1}}}}&lt;br /&gt;
The new &amp;quot;1960 claim line&amp;quot; meant that China laid claim to the entire basin of the Changlung river, stopping just before its confluence with the Kugrang river. Even then, the &amp;quot;approximately&amp;quot; described coordinates, {{coord|34|22|N|78|53|E|name=China&#039;s declared border point}}, are problematic in that they lie within the Kugrang river valley, dropping below the watershed. The place where the &amp;quot;watershed between the Kugrang Tsangpo River and Changlung River&amp;quot; crosses the Changlung River is determined by Indians to be {{coord|34|23|N|78|53.5|E}}, where a post called &amp;quot;Nala Jn&amp;quot; was established by them.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Johri Nullah Jn&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== 1962 standoff ===&lt;br /&gt;
{{further|Galwan River#1962 standoff}}&lt;br /&gt;
In the summer of 1962, sensing that China was trying to advance to its 1960 claim line, India initiated what came to be called the &amp;quot;[[forward policy (Sino-Indian conflict)|forward policy]]&amp;quot;, setting up advance posts in the territory between the 1960 and 1956 claim lines. The [[8th Gorkha Rifles|1/8 Gorkha Riles]] battalion was ordered to set up a post in the upper reaches of the [[Galwan River]]. Setting out from [[Phobrang]], the platoon first established a base at Kayam Hot Springs. A platoon of the &#039;A&#039; Company then moved towards Galwan in July 1962. Along the way it set up a post near Gogra called &amp;quot;Nala Jn&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Johri Nullah Jn&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{harvp|Johri, Chinese Invasion of Ladakh|1969|loc=p. 104: &amp;quot;On July 2 Captain G Kotwal (of 1/8th G.

The date of establishment of the post was 3 July 1962.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Johri Nullah Jn&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By this time, the Chinese troops already had a post at Shamal Lungpa. (Map 4, blue line) So the Nala Jn post would appear to be a defensive post meant to secure the Kugrang valley. The Gorkha Rifles likely used an alternative route through the Kugrang valley to Galwan, setting up a post in its vicinity on 5 July.{{efn|China provided the coordinates of the post as &amp;quot;34 degrees 37 minutes 30 seconds north, 78 degrees 35 minutes 30 seconds east&amp;quot; ({{coord|34|37.5|N|78|35.5|E|name=Galwan FDL post}}) and described it as &amp;quot;six kilometres inside Chinese territory in the Galwan Valley area&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{citation |title=Daily Report, Foreign Radio Broadcasts |publisher=|author=United States.

The coordinates provided by China are in the valley of Shimengou. India refers to the pass as &#039;&#039;&#039;Patrol Point 15&#039;&#039;&#039; (PP-15).&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;H. S.

It was supplied by air. Despite a supply route having been established through the Kugrang Valley, it was seen that its use would be provocative.{{sfnp|Hoffmann, India and the China Crisis|1990|pp=102–104}}{{sfnp|Maxwell, India&#039;s China War|1970|pp=238–239}} Indian sources claim that additional supporting posts were set up by the Indian troops: a &amp;quot;ration party&amp;quot; post at {{coord|34|34.5|N|78|38.5|E|name=Ration Party}} and observation posts at {{coord|34|34.5|N|78|35.5|E|name=OP1}} and {{coord|34|39.5|N|78|44|E|name=OP2}}.{{sfnp|Johri, Chinese Invasion of Ladakh|1969|p=102}}&lt;br /&gt;

=== 1962 war ===&lt;br /&gt;
The [[Sino-Indian War]] began in the western sector on 19 October 1962. The Chinese attacked all Indian posts that were beyond their 1960 claim line. The Nala Jn post, which was technically beyond the line, was also fired upon. The [[section (military unit)|section]] of troops manning the post sustained some casualties. Their telephone line was also cut. So the commander sent two men to the Hot Springs base to report the firing, and a reinforcement of a section of troops arrived on 25 October. However, the Chinese did not attack the post, and it remained intact till the end of the war.{{sfnp|Johri, Chinese Invasion of Ladakh|1969|p=118}}&lt;br /&gt;

}}&lt;br /&gt;
In April 2020, Chinese forces amassed on the border of Ladakh and started intruding into previously uncontrolled territory at several points. Gogra was one of them.{{sfnp|Joshi, Eastern Ladakh|2021|loc=p. 4: &amp;quot;Towards mid-April the PLA, using these forces, occupied a number of areas claimed by both sides. The Chinese moved at five points simultaneously—Galwan river valley, the northern bank of the Pangong Tso lake, Hot Springs/Gogra, Depsang plains and the Charding Nala area of Demchok—and blocked Indian efforts to patrol up to what they understood to be the border.&amp;quot;}} Indian forces had their base at the [[Karam Singh Post]] ({{coord|34.2980|N|78.8949|E|name=Karam Singh Post}}) near Hot Springs, and periodically patrolled up to the location of the erstwhile &amp;quot;Nala Jn&amp;quot; post on the Line of Actual Control, now called &#039;&#039;&#039;Patrol Point 17A&#039;&#039;&#039; (PP-17A).{{sfnp|Joshi, Eastern Ladakh|2021|loc=p. 11, Figure 2}} Around 5 May, clusters of Chinese forces appeared in its vicinity and soon blocked the Indian forces from patrolling up to this point.{{sfnp|Joshi, Eastern Ladakh|2021|p=4}} The Indian Army moved troops to the border in a counter deployment effort, which was completed by early June.{{sfnp|Joshi, Eastern Ladakh|2021|loc=p. 7}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On 6 June 2020, the senior military commanders of the sides met at the Chushul–Moldo [[Border Personnel Meeting point]], and agreed to a &amp;quot;disengagement&amp;quot; of forward troops, to be followed by an eventual &amp;quot;de-escalation&amp;quot;. However, this was not followed through. Inexplicably, there was no pull-back at Gogra and Hot Springs. At the Galwan valley, the Chinese forces continued to remain at the disputed border point, leading to a [[2020 Galwan Valley clash|clash]] between the two sides on 15 June.{{sfnp|Joshi, Eastern Ladakh|2021|loc=p. 7}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Following the clash, the Chinese forces doubled down at all the friction points. Near Gogra, the Chinese forces came down 2–4&amp;amp;nbsp;km from the Line of Actual Control, and set up posts close to Gogra itself.  According to Lt. Gen. [[H. S. Panag]], &amp;quot;the Chinese intrusion here [near Gogra] denies India access to nearly 30-35 km long and 4-km wide Kugrang river valley beyond Gogra.&amp;quot;.{{sfnp|Joshi, Eastern Ladakh|2021|loc=p. 10}} It took several months and 10 rounds of talks between the military commanders to agree on the first pull-back in February 2021, viz., at Fingers 4–8 on the bank of the [[Pangong Lake]].{{sfnp|Joshi, Eastern Ladakh|2021|loc=p. 8}} In the 12th round of talks in August 2021, the two sides agreed to disengage at Gogra. It was reported that troops of both the sides dismantled all temporary structures and allied infrastructure and moved back from forward positions.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[https://indianexpress.com/article/india/india-china-ladakh-army-gogra-7441734/ India, China disengage from Gogra Post in eastern Ladakh after 12th round of talks], The Indian Express, 6 August 2021.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, a de-escalation has not yet taken place. Both the sides continue to claim the area in dispute, and continue to deploy troops in strength behind the forward lines. India has demanded the status quo ante April 2020 to be restored, while China is believed to insist upon imposing the &amp;quot;[[Line of Actual Control#LAC of 7 November 1959|1959 claim line]]&amp;quot;, either by physical denial or via a &amp;quot;buffer zone&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;H. S. Panag, [https://theprint.in/opinion/india-china-talks-on-ladakh-face-off-have-hit-a-wall-only-a-modi-xi-summit-can-resolve-it/952426/ India-China talks on Ladakh face-off have hit a wall. Only a Modi-Xi summit can resolve it], The Print, 12 May 2022.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;{{efn|A &amp;quot;buffer zone&amp;quot;, a concept introduced in the Galwan Valley de-escalation, means that both the sides do not occupy or patrol a defined area. Indian commentators have stated that these &amp;quot;buffer zones&amp;quot; were entirely on the Indian side of the Line of Actual Control and, so, amounted to a cession of territory.}}&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;Sehore&#039;&#039;&#039; is a city and a [[municipality]] in [[Sehore district]] in the Indian [[States and territories of India|state]] of [[Madhya Pradesh]]. It is the district headquarters of Sehore District and is located on the [[Bhopal]]-[[Sehore district|Sehore]]-[[Indore]] highway, 38&amp;amp;amp;nbsp;km from Bhopal.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==History==&lt;br /&gt;
Sehore stands at the foothills of the [[Vindhya Range]]  in the middle of the [[Malwa]] region. It has a long and glorious past. [[Shaiva]], [[Shakta]], [[Jain]], [[Vaishnav]], [[Buddhist]]s and [[Nath]] priests made Sehore a significant seat of meditation/ worship. Sehore was a part of the Bhopal estate. After formation of [[Madhya Pradesh]], it was bifurcated, in 1972 and a new district - Bhopal - was carved out of it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ancient lore states that [[Patanjali|Maharshi Patanjali]], the illustrious founder of a [[Yoga]] sect, also spent some time here in prayer, penance and worship. Folklore also points to the visits of [[Lord Rama]], [[Laxman]] and [[Sita]] to different places in and around Sehore. Sehore has many temples, Mutts, Shrines, Mosques and Churches of historical antiquity and religious significance. Sehore, thus, boasts of a glorious tradition of communal harmony and culture.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Sidhhapur&#039;&#039; is the old name of Sehore{{citation needed|date=April 2018}}.  According to a rock-edict found in the Seevan river, it got its name from   &#039;&#039;Sidrapur&#039;&#039;{{citation needed|date=April 2018}}. According to an old document, Sehore got its name from the Anglo-Indian corruption of &#039;&#039;Sher&#039;&#039; or Lion as pronounced by the British, since lions or &amp;quot;Sher&amp;quot;s were in abundance in the nearby jungles{{citation needed|date=April 2018}}.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sehore has been an integral part of Awanti. Later on, it was under the tutelage of the [[Magadha (Mahajanapada)|Magadh dynasty]], Chandragupta I, [[Harshavardhan]], [[Ashoka]], [[Raja Bhoj]], [[Peshwa]] chiefs, Rani Kamlapati and the Nawabs of the Bhopal dynasty. Sehore remained the headquarters of the political agent and resident of the [[British Raj]] till Indian independence in 1947.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rivers big and small abound in the landscape of Sehore. [[Narmada River|Narmada]], Parwati, Dudhi, Newaj, Kolar, Papnas, Kulans, Seewan, Lotia and other rivers tell a sad tale of lost splendor in the form of scattered idols found in them. Idols of Lord Vishnu, Ganesha, Shiva, Parvati, Nandi, Garuda, Lord Mahavira, Gautam Buddha, Apsaras and fairies have been found in different forms and postures.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During the [[Indian Rebellion of 1857]], Sehore revolted against [[Company rule in India|Company rule]]; in response, Robert Hamilton led a detachment of the [[Bombay Army]] which restored Company control over the town from the rebels, which included mutinying sepoys from the [[Presidency armies]]. Hundreds of rebels were captured, put on trial and executed by [[hanging]] or [[Execution by firing squad|firing squad]] for their role in the rebellion. The [[Nawabs of Bhopal|Nawab of Bhopal]], [[Sikandar Begum]], refused to join the rebellion, which played a major role in assisting its suppression in the region.{{citation needed|date=April 2018}}&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
On 15 August 1947, [[Indian Independence Act 1947|India became independent from British colonial rule]]. But the estate of Bhopal did not merge with the India state till 1949 and even that after a fierce struggle. Sehore has honorable mention in the fields of academics and literature. Lanciet Likinson, the political agent, got written the first English translation of &#039;&#039;[[Shakuntala (play)|Abhijñānaśākuntalam]]&#039;&#039; in 1835–40.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The High School of Sehore founded in 1835 by political agent Likinson, had to its credit, students like Hidayatullah (former Chief Justice of the Supreme Court and Vice President of India) and Banchu (Ex-chief justice) Mirza Faim Begh (chief engineer).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Geography==&lt;br /&gt;
Sehore is 37&amp;amp;amp;nbsp;km from the state capital, [[Bhopal]], towards the south-west and on the [[Bhopal]] - [[Indore]] highway. Its height from mean sea level is between 1500&amp;amp;amp;nbsp;ft. and 2000&amp;amp;amp;nbsp;ft. Sehore is situated on the [[Western Railway Zone (India)|Western Railway]] line from [[Bhopal]] to [[Ratlam]]. It is surrounded by 7 districts: [[Bhopal]], [[Raisen]], [[Harda]], [[Hoshangabad]], [[Dewas]], [[Shajapur]] and [[Rajgarh district|Rajgarh]]. Sehore district extends between the parallels of Latitude 22&#039;31&#039;&#039; to 23&#039;40&#039;&#039; North and between the meridians of Longitude 76&#039;22&#039;&#039; and 78&#039;08&#039;&#039; East. Sehore is located at {{Coord|23.2|N|77.08|E|}}.&amp;amp;lt;ref&amp;amp;gt;{{Cite web|url=http://www.fallingrain.com/world/IN/35/Sehore.html|title=Maps, Weather, and Airports for Sehore, India|website=Falling Rain|access-date=1 February 2021}}&amp;amp;lt;/ref&amp;amp;gt; It has an average elevation of 502&amp;amp;amp;nbsp;metres (1646&amp;amp;amp;nbsp;feet). The only river passing through the Sehore district is the Siven.&lt;br /&gt;

The &#039;&#039;&#039;Sharavati Bridge&#039;&#039;&#039; is a railway bridge, south of [[Honnavar]], in the state of [[Karnataka]], India, completed in 1994.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Afcons&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite web|url=http://www.afcons.com/Bridges/Brides_complited/KonkanRailway.html |title=Sharavati Bridge |publisher=Afcons Infrastructure Limited |accessdate=2012-01-07 |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20100128023028/http://www.afcons.com/Bridges/Brides_complited/KonkanRailway.html |archivedate=28 January 2010 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Tarrant&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite episode|title=India |series=Chris Tarrant: Extreme Railways |url=http://www.channel5.com/shows/chris-tarrant-extreme-railways/episodes/episode-3-442 |accessdate=2012-12-19 |station=[[Channel 5 (UK)|Channel 5]] |date=2012-12-19 |number=3 |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20130121230209/http://www.channel5.com/shows/chris-tarrant-extreme-railways/episodes/episode-3-442 |archivedate=21 January 2013 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;  It carries the [[Konkan Railway]] over the [[Sharavati]] river.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Tarrant&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is {{convert|2060|m|ft}} long,&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Afcons&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; and is the longest bridge on that railway,&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Tarrant&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; and the longest railway bridge in the state.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The work consisted of construction of a {{convert|2060|m|ft|adj=mid|-long}} bridge having 55 spans of 33&amp;amp;nbsp;m and 11 spans of 22&amp;amp;nbsp;m.  The foundation consists of four {{convert|1.2|m|ft|adj=mid|-diameter}} cast-in-situ R.C.C. bored piles for piers and eight 1.2-metre-diameter piles for abutments. The superstructure was with a single post-tensioned box girder for 33&amp;amp;nbsp;m spans and three precast pretensioned I girders for 22&amp;amp;nbsp;m spans.  This bridge at Honnavar was awarded second prize in the competition for Most outstanding Bridge National Awards 1995 – Category I by Indian Institute of Bridge Engineers in 1995.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Sharavati Road Bridge==&lt;br /&gt;
The bridge was constructed in 1984 with an overall length of 1047.65 meters, comprises 34 spans of 30 meters each. The two end spans are balanced cantilever arms. Each main span consists of five prestressed &amp;quot;I&amp;quot; girders placed on hammerheads.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Rehabilitation===&lt;br /&gt;
The rehabilitation of the bridge was carried out by Freyssinet Prestressed Concrete Company Ltd (FPCC) by strengthening the piers and hammerheads with additional steel brackets and external prestressing of main girders. The load test carried out to assess residual prestress in the girders.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web | url=http://freyssinet-india.com/projects-repair-rehabilation-sharavathi-bridge | title=Sharavati Bridge near Honnavar, Karnataka | publisher=Freyssinet Prestressed Concrete Company Ltd (FPCC) | accessdate=2012-01-07 | archive-date=7 January 2014 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140107211035/http://freyssinet-india.com/projects-repair-rehabilation-sharavathi-bridge | url-status=dead }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

[[File:George Vernon.jpg|thumb|right|[[George Vernon (cricketer)|George Vernon]]]]&lt;br /&gt;
In the 1889–90 cricket season, an English team managed by [[George Vernon (cricketer)|George Vernon]] and captained by [[Martin Hawke, 7th Baron Hawke|Lord Hawke]] toured Ceylon and India. It was a pioneering tour being the first visit by an English team to India and the second to [[Sri Lanka|Ceylon]], following the stopover by [[Ivo Bligh, 8th Earl of Darnley|Ivo Bligh]]&#039;s team to [[English cricket team in Australia in 1882–83|Australia in 1882–83]]. Vernon&#039;s team, known as G. F. Vernon&#039;s XI, was entirely composed of players with [[Amateur status in first-class cricket|amateur status]] and, in the absence of professionals, none of its matches have been recognised as [[first-class cricket|first-class]].{{refn|group=notes|name=status|At the time, &amp;quot;first-class&amp;quot; was a term in common usage but it was not yet an official standard. It was formally defined in the May 1894 meeting at [[Lord&#039;s]] of [[Marylebone Cricket Club]] (MCC) and the [[county cricket|county clubs]] which were then competing in the [[County Championship]]. The ruling was effective from the beginning of the [[1895 English cricket season|1895 season]].{{sfn|ACS|1982|pp=4–5}}}} In all, they played thirteen matches from 28 November 1889 to 1 March 1890, starting with two games in Ceylon before moving on to [[Kolkata|Calcutta]] where the Indian part of the tour began in late December.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Of the thirteen matches, Vernon&#039;s XI won ten (six by over an [[innings]]) and [[draw (cricket)|drew]] two. They were defeated only once, by the [[Parsis cricket team|Parsis]] in a match which had great significance for the native communities living under the rule of the [[British Raj]]. The matches were all played under the &#039;&#039;[[Laws of Cricket]]&#039;&#039; which prevailed in England at the time, including the compulsory [[follow-on]] and the recently introduced [[over (cricket)|5-ball over]].{{refn|group=notes|name=rules|At the time, the number of [[delivery (cricket)|deliveries]] per [[over (cricket)|over]] in English cricket had just been increased from four to five; all the matches on this tour used the five-ball over (the over was increased from five deliveries to six in 1900).&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;C20591&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite journal |url=https://archive.acscricket.com/cricket/1889/101/index.html |title=The Marylebone Club |journal=Cricket: A Weekly Record of the Game |publisher=Merritt &amp;amp; Hatcher Ltd |location=London |volume=VIII |issue=205 |page=91 |date=2 May 1889 |via=ACS}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Since 1854, it had been compulsory for the team batting second to [[follow-on]] if they had a first innings deficit of 80 or more runs (the minimum deficit was increased to 120 runs in 1894 and the follow-on first became optional in 1900).{{sfn|Swanton|Plumptre|Woodcock|1986|p=695}}}} The tour was a success and it made a significant contribution to the growth and development of cricket in the sub-continent.&lt;br /&gt;

In the 21 March 1889 issue of &#039;&#039;[[Cricket: A Weekly Record of the Game]]&#039;&#039; (aka &#039;&#039;Cricket&#039;&#039;), the news section includes a piece about &amp;quot;the probable visit of a party of English amateurs to India at the fall of this year&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;C20242&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite journal |url=https://archive.acscricket.com/cricket/1889/52/index.html |title=Pavilion Gossip |journal=Cricket: A Weekly Record of the Game |publisher=Merritt &amp;amp; Hatcher Ltd |location=London |volume=VIII |issue=202 |page=42 |date=21 March 1889 |via=ACS}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Arrangements were reported to be &amp;quot;progressing most satisfactorily&amp;quot; with contacts in [[Kolkata|Calcutta]] saying the idea of the tour &amp;quot;seems to be universally popular throughout India&amp;quot;. The team was expected to set sail end of October and spend Christmas in Calcutta. [[Martin Hawke, 7th Baron Hawke|Lord Hawke]] and [[George Vernon (cricketer)|G. F. Vernon]] were the main organisers in England, and they had thus far extended invitations to [[James Walker (sportsman)|J. G. Walker]], [[Albert Leatham]], [[John Hornsby (cricketer)|J. H. J. Hornsby]], [[Herbert Rhodes|H. E. Rhodes]], Edward Beaumont-Nesbitt, [[Francis Shand|F. L. Shand]] and [[Henry Forster, 1st Baron Forster|H. W. Forster]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;C20242&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the 11 July issue, the news editor confirmed that the party would sail on the [[P&amp;amp;O (company)|P&amp;amp;O]] steamer &#039;&#039;Bengal&#039;&#039; which was scheduled to leave London for [[Colombo]], [[Chennai|Madras]] and Calcutta on 31 October. The planned schedule was to play two matches in [[Sri Lanka|Ceylon]] during the stopover at Colombo. Madras would only be a short stopover so the intention was to begin the Indian matches in Calcutta, where it was hoped they would spend Christmas week. No definite match arrangements could yet be confirmed, however, and they did not expect to finalise a fixture list until they arrived in India. They intended to terminate the tour around the end of February. Hawke and Vernon continued to organise things from England. They had received acceptances from Walker, Leatham, Hornsby, Rhodes and Shand, who were all mentioned in March; additional acceptances had been received from [[Hylton Philipson]] and E. M. Lawson-Smith. Beaumont-Nesbitt had apparently declined; Forster was said to have accepted but nevertheless did not make the trip. The organisers had also invited [[Francis Lacey]], but his availability was uncertain and, eventually, he did not join the team.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;C215253&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite journal |url=https://archive.acscricket.com/cricket/1889/276/index.html |title=Pavilion Gossip |journal=Cricket: A Weekly Record of the Game |publisher=Merritt &amp;amp; Hatcher Ltd |location=London |volume=VIII |issue=215 |page=253 |date=11 July 1889 |via=ACS}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

The arrangements seemed to be progressing well until the sudden death on 10 September of H. E. Rhodes, who fell from a hotel balcony in [[Dover]]. &#039;&#039;Cricket&#039;&#039; paid tribute to him on 31 October, the same day the team was due to depart.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;C227490&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite journal |url=https://archive.acscricket.com/cricket/1889/490/index.html |title=Pavilion Gossip |journal=Cricket: A Weekly Record of the Game |publisher=Merritt &amp;amp; Hatcher Ltd |location=London |volume=VIII |issue=227 |pages=490–492 |date=31 October 1889 |via=ACS}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Most of the team met at [[Liverpool Street Station]] that day and travelled to [[Tilbury]], to embark on the &#039;&#039;Bengal&#039;&#039; which had been lying off [[Gravesend]]. Those heading for Tilbury were Vernon, Walker, Lawson-Smith, Hornsby, Philipson and three recent recruits: [[Arthur Gibson (Lancashire cricketer)|Arthur Gibson]], [[George Hone-Goldney]], and [[Thomas Tapling]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;C227490&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Two more, [[Ernest de Little]] and [[Francis Shand|F. L. Shand]] would meet them in Colombo. Rhodes&#039; replacement was A. N. Curzon who would join the team in January.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;C227490&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Reserve wicket-keeper Tapling, who was both an eminent [[philatelist]] and the [[Member of Parliament (United Kingdom)|MP]] for [[Harborough (UK Parliament constituency)|Harborough]], sailed on the &#039;&#039;Bengal&#039;&#039; as far as [[Naples]] where a close friend was taken ill. Tapling opted to stay with him, thereby missing the Ceylonese leg of the tour. He arrived in India just before Christmas 1889 and played in six matches between then and the end of February.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |url=https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Players/33/33180/Miscellaneous_Matches.html |title=Miscellaneous Matches played by Thomas Tapling |work=CricketArchive |access-date=4 September 2022 |url-access=subscription |archive-date=4 September 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220904143725/https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Players/33/33180/Miscellaneous_Matches.html |url-status=live }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Also missing from the &#039;&#039;Bengal&#039;&#039; was Hawke who had left a week earlier and gone to Bombay, as he wanted to do some big-game hunting.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;C227490&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;{{sfn|Coldham|1990|p=72}} This venture backfired somewhat because, while he was staying in [[Gwalior]], he was struck down with a serious attack of [[gastritis]]. That not only stopped him from killing animals, but also from meeting his teammates in Calcutta, as he had planned.{{sfn|Coldham|1990|p=73}} It was not until February, when nine of the thirteen matches had been played, that Hawke was able to rejoin the team.{{sfn|Coldham|1990|p=73}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Cricket&#039;&#039; reported on 28 November that the &#039;&#039;Bengal&#039;&#039; had docked in Colombo two days earlier, on schedule. The 27 December issue carried the first match report from the tour of the match in [[Kandy]] against &amp;quot;All Ceylon&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;C229479&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite journal |url=https://archive.acscricket.com/cricket/1889/524/index.html |title=The English Amateurs in Ceylon |journal=Cricket: A Weekly Record of the Game |publisher=Merritt &amp;amp; Hatcher Ltd |location=London |volume=VIII |issue=229 |page=479 |date=31 October 1889 |via=ACS}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

The precise names and locations of some venues cannot now be established and many of the team names were arbitrarily derived from their locations. With the single exception of the [[Parsis cricket team|Parsis]], all the home teams were composed of European colonials who were mostly British expatriates.{{sfn|Guha|2001|pp=33–37}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The matches were scheduled for either two or three days&#039; duration. The two-day matches are noted as such in the table below; the rest were all scheduled for three days. There was no Sunday play and all the matches were arranged so that they would be completed on consecutive days with no Sunday break. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Tour summary==&lt;br /&gt;
===Playing standards===&lt;br /&gt;
Analysing the quality of Vernon&#039;s team, James Coldham in his biography of Hawke said they were a &amp;quot;useful&amp;quot; combination in that they had plenty of batting and most types of bowling. They had, too, a very good wicket-keeper because Philipson later played for England. Coldham saw them as what he called a mix of regular county players, Oxbridge types and &amp;quot;first-rate club players&amp;quot; who would have been a good [[National Counties of English and Welsh cricket|Minor Counties]] team. They were by no means first-class but, of their time, a real handful for any Ceylonese or Indian opposition.{{sfn|Coldham|1990|p=73}} [[Ramachandra Guha]] concurs with this view, saying that Vernon&#039;s XI &amp;quot;could not be judged a first-class side (although) they played cricket of a quality not generally seen in India&amp;quot;.{{sfn|Guha|2001|p=33}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The general weakness of the Indian and Ceylonese opposition is evident in the number of wide winning margins achieved by Vernon&#039;s XI, six of the ten wins by an innings and plenty. Twelve of their thirteen hosts had teams which comprised the typical combination of British expatriates who were mostly civil servants or soldiers. The expatriate XIs were no better than English local club teams and so, for the most part, they were easily beaten by Vernon&#039;s XI.{{sfn|Coldham|1990|p=74}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The tourists arrived in [[Mumbai|Bombay]] from [[Allahabad]] about a week before the end of January 1890. They had won six and drawn one of their seven matches. Among the individual highlights had been centuries by Vernon, Gibson and Walker; and strong bowling performances by Hornsby, Gibson, Leatham and de Little. Vernon&#039;s XI then easily disposed of the Bombay Gymkhana team by an innings, Hornsby taking 13/78 in the match. Their next match was also on the Gymkhana Grounds and it was advertised as the &amp;quot;Cricket Championship of India&amp;quot;.{{sfn|Guha|2001|p=33}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Parsis match===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Bombay-Gymnkhana.jpg|thumb|right|A modern view of the [[Bombay Gymkhana]]]]&lt;br /&gt;
The only match in which Vernon&#039;s team faced an ethnic team with no Europeans was the low-scoring one at the end of January against the [[Parsis cricket team|Parsis]] on the Bombay Gymkhana. The Parsis had a distinct community in Bombay and, having embraced British rule and culture, they were the real pioneers of Indian cricket and had sent two touring teams to Great Britain, in [[Parsi cricket team in England in 1886|1886]] and [[Parsi cricket team in England in 1888|1888]]. Until the last fifteen or so years of the 19th century, the sport in India had always been an essentially British pursuit. Its increasing popularity among the native population coincided with the rise of their influence in administrative and political matters. In 1890, as Coldham says, the Parsis were the only native community capable of putting a team in the field.{{sfn|Coldham|1990|p=74}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was a two-day match, 30 and 31 January. At the end of the first day, the Parsis were 80/9 in response to the tourists&#039; 97 all out, which included 45 by Vernon. The Parsis added two more runs in the morning and Vernon&#039;s XI began their second innings with a lead of 15. The best Parsi player was their all-rounder [[M. E. Pavri]] who was a fast bowler. He had been successful in England on the 1888 tour. He now dismissed Vernon&#039;s XI for only 61, taking 7/34. The Parsis needed 77 to claim a significant victory over their English opponents and, despite Hornsby&#039;s efforts, they accomplished it with four wickets to spare.{{sfn|Guha|2001|pp=33–34}} Pavri took 9/37 in the match and also top-scored with 21 in the Parsi second innings. He played for [[Middlesex County Cricket Club|Middlesex]] a few years later and was known as the &amp;quot;Grace of the Parsis&amp;quot; because, like [[W. G. Grace]], he was both an all-rounder and a doctor.{{sfn|Guha|2001|p=32}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There is no doubt that it was a significant victory because it sparked celebrations throughout Bombay and was acclaimed as &amp;quot;the greatest sporting contest in the city&#039;s history&amp;quot;.{{sfn|Guha|2001|p=34}} Many saw it as &amp;quot;a blow to the prestige of Empire&amp;quot;{{sfn|Guha|2001|p=35}} and the pro-Raj &#039;&#039;[[Bombay Gazette]]&#039;&#039; resorted to making speculative excuses such as: &amp;quot;Had Mr Vernon not been run out&amp;quot;.{{sfn|Guha|2001|p=34}} There was little if any actual trouble and efforts were made to jointly celebrate the occasion but, as Guha commented, &amp;quot;it revealed the communal competitiveness that would drive the progress of cricket in colonial India&amp;quot;.{{sfn|Guha|2001|p=36}} The &#039;&#039;Bombay Gazette&#039;&#039; called for a resurgence of European cricket while the Parsi newspaper &#039;&#039;[[Rast Goftar]]&#039;&#039; asked their players to bear in mind that Hindu and Muslim cricketers would be seeking to emulate their success, so they must themselves be ready to face challenges.{{sfn|Guha|2001|pp=36–37}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Four weeks later, when &#039;&#039;Cricket&#039;&#039; published the match report and scorecard, the magazine paid a glowing tribute to the Parsis saying their victory &amp;quot;cannot fail to give a fresh impetus to the practice of the game among the followers of that great community&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;C23126&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite journal |url=https://archive.acscricket.com/cricket/1890/28/index.html |title=Pavilion Gossip |journal=Cricket: A Weekly Record of the Game |publisher=Merritt &amp;amp; Hatcher Ltd |location=London |volume=IX |issue=231 |page=26 |date=27 February 1890 |via=ACS}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; According to a separate report in the same issue of &#039;&#039;Cricket&#039;&#039;, there was a celebratory dinner for the tourists on the night of the 30th (after the first day of the match). On the night of the 31st, Vernon&#039;s team travelled to [[Lucknow]] on the [[Jubbulpore]] mail train. It was expected they would return to Bombay after playing the Punjab in [[Lahore]] at the end of February, and there would be a return match against the Parsis. That, however, did not happen as the Lahore match was the final one.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;C23123&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite journal |url=https://archive.acscricket.com/cricket/1890/28/index.html |title=The English Amateurs in India: Ninth Match v.

&lt;br /&gt;
===Later matches===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Walter Troup c1895.jpg|thumb|150px|right|[[Walter Troup]]]]&lt;br /&gt;
When Vernon&#039;s XI arrived in [[Lucknow]], their opponents were the usual British expatriate combination. The Lucknow team nevertheless gave Vernon&#039;s XI a real scare. It was Hawke&#039;s first match on the tour and he took over the captaincy from Vernon. Hawke opened the batting himself and was bowled for a [[duck (cricket)|duck]]. The team was [[all out (cricket)|all out]] for only 79 and Lucknow responded with 125 to lead by 46 on first innings. Hawke was nearly out straightaway in his second innings but the [[third man]] fielder dropped the [[caught (cricket)|catch]]. Hawke went on to make 45 and, with 68 by Walker and 47* by Philipson, Vernon&#039;s XI scored 229 to set Lucknow a target of 184. The pitch was very worn and they were bowled out by de Little and Gibson who took five wickets each, Vernon&#039;s XI winning by 123 runs.{{sfn|Coldham|1990|p=74}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Using the [[Rail transport in India|railways]] as their primary means of transport, the team moved on to [[Agra]]. Hone-Goldney, Hornsby and Vernon himself had all succumbed to illness or injury and three local replacements – Hilliard, John and Maxwell – had to be drafted in. Lawson-Smith rose to the occasion with a first innings century before de Little and Gibson bowled Agra out for two low totals. Apart from [[Gloucestershire County Cricket Club|Gloucestershire]] batsman [[Walter Troup]], the Agra team had little to offer and this was a routine win for Vernon&#039;s XI. Troup [[carried his bat]] though the Agra first innings with 59* in a total of 116.{{sfn|Coldham|1990|p=74}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In [[Meerut]], the tourists again encountered Troup, this time playing for a team called Northern India. Vernon had recovered and his team totalled 304 in the first innings with seven batsmen making scores of between 23 and 54. Hoping for another convincing victory, Vernon&#039;s XI were frustrated by Troup (42) and John Waterfield (98), who forged a stubborn and time-consuming fourth wicket partnership. Although Northern India had to follow-on, there was not enough time left for the tourists to dismiss them again, and the match was drawn.{{sfn|Coldham|1990|p=74}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Soon afterwards, de Little broke a collarbone in a riding accident. The team had only eight fit players when they arrived in [[Lahore]] for the final match against a Punjab team; Vernon himself was again among the absentees. They recruited John Waterfield for this match along with Army officers Herman Bonham-Carter and [[Hugh Bateman-Champain]]. Vernon&#039;s XI won by an innings, the match and the tour ending on 1 March 1890.{{sfn|Coldham|1990|p=75}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The team&#039;s highest runscorers on the tour were Walker (515) and Vernon himself (478). Vernon&#039;s 128 in the opening match against Ceylon was the highest individual score; three other centuries were scored by Lawson-Smith (117), Walker (108) and Gibson (100). The leading bowlers by wickets taken were Hornsby (69), Gibson (67) and de Little (49).{{sfn|Caple|1959|p=16}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Aftermath==&lt;br /&gt;
The tour was a success and it made a significant contribution to the growth and development of cricket in the sub-continent. On 27 March 1890, &#039;&#039;Cricket&#039;&#039; reproduced an article in India&#039;s &#039;&#039;[[The Pioneer (India)|Pioneer Mail]]&#039;&#039; which praised Vernon&#039;s XI for &amp;quot;setting on foot an enterprise now sure to be repeated&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;C23236&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite journal |url=https://archive.acscricket.com/cricket/1890/42/index.html |title=Cricket in India: From the &#039;&#039;Pioneer Mail&#039;&#039; |journal=Cricket: A Weekly Record of the Game |publisher=Merritt &amp;amp; Hatcher Ltd |location=London |volume=IX |issue=232 |page=36 |date=27 March 1890 |via=ACS}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; It would not be long before it was repeated as [[Lord Hawke&#039;s cricket team in Ceylon and India in 1892–93|another touring party]] arrived in 1892, this time led by Hawke and including [[F. S. Jackson]], the future [[England cricket team|England]] captain, and [[Ledger Hill]]. Gibson, Hornsby, Leatham, and Vernon all returned.{{sfn|Bose|1990|p=26}} Colynge Caple remarked that the tour had originated as &amp;quot;something in the nature of a pleasure trip&amp;quot; but in the end it forged &amp;quot;yet another link in the ever-growing chain of international cricket&amp;quot;.{{sfn|Caple|1959|p=14}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Parsis had first played the European members of the Bombay Gymkhana in 1877. The Europeans won after the Parsis had surprisingly taken a first innings lead and the match was reiterated several times in the following years. The Parsis went to England twice in the 1880s and were all that time gaining expertise and experience. In the Gymkhana match of September 1889, the Parsis won by 10 wickets&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |url=https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Scorecards/261/261089.html |title=Bombay Gymkhana v Parsees, September 1889 |work=CricketArchive |access-date=6 September 2022 |url-access=subscription |archive-date=4 October 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231004153000/https://cricketarchive.com/subscribe |url-status=live }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; and then, four months later, came the celebrated victory over Vernon&#039;s XI.{{sfn|Bose|1990|pp=23–26}} [[Mihir Bose]] likened the popular acclaim of the Parsi team to that of a people who had [[Battle of Nahavand|lost their country long ago]] and suddenly rediscovered themselves on a cricket field.{{sfn|Bose|1990|p=26}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Two years later, the Parsis were playing their [[Europeans cricket team|European counterparts]] in a match billed as the [[Bombay Quadrangular|Bombay Presidency]] and generally accorded [[first-class cricket|first-class status]], the inaugural first-class match in India. Unfortunately, it was ruined by rain and resulted in a draw, but it meant the Parsis had arrived at cricket&#039;s highest level. In the years that followed, the cricketers among the Hindu and Muslim communities inevitably caught up and the Bombay Presidency Match became the Bombay Triangular in 1907 and the [[Bombay Quadrangular]] in 1912.{{sfn|Bose|1990|pp=32–33}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Players==&lt;br /&gt;
The list below includes all players who represented Vernon&#039;s XI in at least one of the thirteen matches. There was no formal squad selection process as for later [[Test cricket|Test teams]] and the players became involved as a result of receiving friendly invitations, or by being available when the team was short of numbers. Some players therefore had a very temporary association with the team at one or two locations only. The table gives the name, cricket club (if specific), age (i.e., on 1 November 1889) and on-field roles of each player:&lt;br /&gt;

The [[Cañadón Asfalto Formation]] is a [[geological formation]] which dates to the [[Toarcian]] age of the [[Early Jurassic]] period of [[Argentina]]. The rocks of the formation preserve a diverse biota, including [[plant]]s, [[dinosaur]]s, [[invertebrate]]s, [[mammal]]s and [[pterosaur]]s, among others. The formation is divided into two members: the lower Las Chacritas Member, and the overlying Puesto Almada member, though the latter has also been assigned to the overlying [[Cañadón Calcáreo Formation]] by some authors. The members are typically composed of fluvial-lacustrine deposits consisting of sandstones and shales, with a limestone carbonate evaporitic sequence also being present in the lower of the two.&lt;br /&gt;

===Theropods===&lt;br /&gt;
During a campaign conducted in early 2021, remains of a large theropod dinosaur were found near the town of Las Chacritas. In 2020 a new fossil locality was found, named Cañadón de las Huellas due to the large number of sauropod, and probably theropod, footprints on one of the canyon walls. In the same locality in 2021, articulated remains where recovered and represent at least one sauropod and one large theropod.&amp;lt;ref name=EUSA&amp;gt;{{cite journal |last1=Gomez |first1=K.

&#039;&#039;&#039;Savitha Sastry&#039;&#039;&#039; (born 11 August 1969) is an Indian dancer and choreographer best known as an exponent of [[Bharatanatyam]].

&lt;br /&gt;
==Early life and education==&lt;br /&gt;
Savitha Subramaniam was born in Hyderabad, and later lived in Mumbai before her family relocated to their home town of [[Chennai]]. She started her training in Bharatanatyam under the tutelage of Guru Mahalingam Pillai at the Sri Rajarajeswari Bharatha Natya Kala Mandir in Mumbai, and later with [[Adyar K. Lakshman|Adyar K Lakshman]] and the [[Dhananjayans]] in Chennai.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;indiatoday.in&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[https://www.indiatoday.in/education-today/featurephilia/story/savitha-sastry-neuroscientist-changed-career-perform-teach-bharatanatyam-for-free-1739806-2020-11-10 Chakrabarty, Roshni.

&lt;br /&gt;
In 1986, she featured as the lead dancer in the Tamil film &#039;&#039;Ananda Tandavam&#039;&#039;, a production of her Guru&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[https://web.archive.org/web/20031206153449/http://www.hindu.com/ms/2003/12/01/stories/2003120100040800.htm Viswanathan, Lakshmi.

She pursued her master&#039;s degree in the United States, where she majored in neuroscience.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;indiatoday.in&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Bharatanatyam==&lt;br /&gt;
Through the 1980s, 1990s and the first decade of the millennium, Sastry had performed mostly traditional repertoires of [[Bharatanatyam]]. She produced and choreographed a few full length presentations such as &#039;&#039;Krishna: The Supreme Mystic&#039;&#039; and &#039;&#039;Purushartha&#039;&#039; during this phase.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;officialwebpage&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[http://www.savithasastry.com/savitha.html About Savitha], savithasastry.com; accessed 28 June 2017.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She is credited to have a high degree of technical proficiency in her kinetics of the dance form in being able to deliver it with the grace and technique demanded of [[Bharatanatyam]] performers.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Suri, Sathish.[http://www.narthaki.com/info/rev11/rev1095.html Profile], Narthaki.com; accessed 25 September 2011.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; [[Sydney]]-based critic Hamsa Venkat referred to &amp;quot;Savitha&#039;s crisp nritta (pure dance), clean lines and flawless aramandi was a breath of fresh air, and truly inspirational for students of dance.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Venkat, Hamsa, [http://sydhwaney.com/dance/shobana-the-sensational-queen-of-mime &amp;quot;A Queen of Mime&amp;quot;], Sydhwaney.com, 11 March 2011.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The Audition Panel of the San Francisco Ethnic Dance Festival described her dancing with the words &amp;quot;Moves like a temple sculpture come to life&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;officialwebpage&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Notable productions==&lt;br /&gt;
By 2009, Sastry departed from performing traditional &#039;&#039;margams&#039;&#039; (the traditional order in which classical dance is performed), and started her work on theme based productions. Sastry is noted for the use of contemporary and original story lines in her performances and her portrayal of multiple characters as a solo performer in them, which is a marked departure from the traditional [[Bharatanatyam]] theme of the nayika (the heroine) pining for love or pieces based on [[Bhakti]] (devotion) alone. Some of her notable productions include &#039;&#039;Music Within&#039;&#039; (2010),&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Das, Priya.

Sastry has been critically lauded not only for her technique, but also for her innovations in the art form to take it to a wider audience. A profile story in [[the Times of India]] reported &amp;quot;(Savitha) has merged contemporary content with the centuries old dance form to create a unique niche&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;officialwebpage&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Critic Fozia Yasin of the &#039;&#039;Asian Age&#039;&#039; notes that Sastry &amp;quot;aims to bring about a renaissance in the traditional art form by marrying the aesthetics of Bharatanatyam with the power of an intelligent and novel story-line.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;officialwebpage&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Critic Nonika Singh of &#039;&#039;The Tribune&#039;&#039; wrote, &amp;quot;Knocking down pigeonholes as she breaks free, she hopes to inspire more and more aspiring dancers to soar along, in the vast expanse of tradition minus the baggage of restrictive thinking!&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;officialwebpage&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Critic Yamini Walia of [[the Afternoon Despatch &amp;amp; Courier]] reports that &amp;quot;her path breaking work has been recognised as a renaissance by critics and audiences all over the world.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Walia, Yamini.[http://www.savithasastry.com/press/chains/afternoonDespatchCourierFeb122015.jpg &amp;quot;The Classical Storyteller&amp;quot;], &#039;&#039;Afternoon Despatch &amp;amp; Courier&#039;&#039;; accessed 28 June 2017.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All her productions have been based on short stories by her husband, [[AK Srikanth]], and the soundtrack for the productions have been composed by [[Rajkumar Bharathi]], the great grandson of the veteran poet [[Subramanya Bharathi|Subramania Bharathi]]. These have been performed in the Indian Subcontinent, Australia, South East Asia, the Middle East, Africa, Europe and the Americas, and the productions have met with critical and popular acclaim. Another hallmark of Sastry&#039;s presentations is a Q &amp;amp; A session that she and Srikanth have with the audience at the end of the performance where the audience discuss the presentation with the performer and writer. Critic Lakshmi Ramakrishna of the Hindu praised this teamwork with the words &amp;quot;The husband – wife duo has struck a chord with audiences in conveying deeply philosophical thoughts with striking simplicity, élan and elegance&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Ramakrishna, Lakshmi.

[[Leena Yadav]] had plans of making a [[Nonfiction|non-fictional]] work after the release of &#039;&#039;[[Parched]]&#039;&#039; (2015) and &#039;&#039;[[Rajma Chawal]]&#039;&#039; (2018). She revealed in an interview her plans to create a documentary about the [[Burari deaths|Burari mass suicide]], an incident revolving around the demise of 11 members of the same family on 30 June 2018, for the creative team working at [[Netflix|Netflix India]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:2&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite web|date=2021-10-04|title=Leena Yadav talks moving to non-fiction storytelling, making House of Secrets for Netflix|url=https://www.firstpost.com/entertainment/leena-yadav-talks-moving-to-non-fiction-storytelling-making-house-of-secrets-for-netflix-10022441.html|access-date=2021-10-19|website=Firstpost|language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; She felt that there were many stories surrounding the incident that people were unaware of; after she posted the incident, many media channels covered the topic and it became a national sensation, but was stopped at one particular point. The truth regarding the incident and its root cause prompted Yadav to film a documentary about this topic.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web|last=Taskin|first=Bismee|date=2021-01-17|title=Scary to neighbours, home to families – Burari house fights horror tag 2 yrs after 11 deaths|url=https://theprint.in/india/scary-to-neighbours-home-to-families-burari-house-fights-horror-tag-2-yrs-after-11-deaths/585719/|access-date=2021-10-04|website=ThePrint|language=en-US}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{{Quote box&lt;br /&gt;
| quote = &amp;quot;It was different as I come from a narrative background. It was interesting to give up all control. I went into an interview not knowing what I will learn and where it will turn. I had to surrender to it, as the emotional content was so strong. We don&#039;t know what happened to the case and that is where the documentary will take you. More than a ‘whodunit’ it is a ‘whydunit&#039; and even though the first question is who, why is much more important in this case.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;

Yadav began conceptualising the series with Anubhav Chopra, who worked as an assistant director in prominent Bollywood films. She came up with multiple conversations revolving around the people who witnessed the incident and police officers and journalists. The team also came in connection with the brother of one of the victims, saying that &amp;quot;it was very therapeutic because they had not even spoken about the issues amongst themselves&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; She had covered a total of 400 hours which was considered to be &amp;quot;difficult&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;emotionally draining&amp;quot; but said that it was a &amp;quot;big learning experience&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web|title=Leena Yadav shares &#039;emotionally draining&#039; process of making &#039;House of Secrets: The Burari Deaths&#039;|url=https://www.aninews.in/news/entertainment/out-of-box/leena-yadav-shares-emotionally-draining-process-of-making-house-of-secrets-the-burari-deaths20211002142850/|access-date=2021-10-19|website=ANI News|language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She added that &amp;quot;our structure was to present it exactly the way we experienced it. To start with, it was a spectacle that blew up. Then the layers came in, and that is exactly the approach: seeing this as an event and then getting into each layer of revelations.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite web|date=2021-10-13|title=House of Secrets The Burari Deaths director Leena Yadav: &#039;The mind behind the crime is the biggest catch&#039;|url=https://indianexpress.com/article/entertainment/web-series/house-of-secrets-the-burari-deaths-netflix-leena-yadav-7562608/|access-date=2021-10-19|website=The Indian Express|language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; For working on the series, she had approached non-professionals to work on the camera. Kshitij Kumar Goel and Laxman Suthar, handled the aerial footages. Yadav said that &amp;quot;the camera has an interesting power, where people  who have never been in front of a camera feel pushed to go to the truth. It’s like something is recording you so you better tell the truth now.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:2&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; She approached prominent composer [[A. R. Rahman]] to work on the background music. Rahman said that &amp;quot;the series required a distinct, nuanced musical approach: enigmatic yet gripping&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:4&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite web|date=2021-10-04|title=AR Rahman on Netflix&#039;s House of Secrets: &#039;An unexplored territory which required a distinct musical approach&#039;|url=https://indianexpress.com/article/entertainment/web-series/ar-rahman-on-netflix-house-of-secrets-an-unexplored-territory-which-required-a-distinct-musical-approach-7551297/|access-date=2021-10-19|website=The Indian Express|language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The score was curated by Rahman and his [[Qutub-E-Kripa]] musical team.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:4&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike other documentaries which had a &amp;quot;cinematic approach in the coverage of real incidents&amp;quot;, Yadav wanted the documentary to be gripping, and must have &amp;quot;a perspective among various people who witnessed the crime angle&amp;quot;. Eventually, the inclusion of voice-over in the documentary made it to be &amp;quot;thrilling and effective&amp;quot;. The three-part series highlighted the secretive nature of Indian families, where many families are seemingly, ‘normal’ and ‘well-functioning’ on the surface, but are plagued by issues of all kinds.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:3&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Reception==&lt;br /&gt;
Anuj Kumar of &#039;&#039;[[The Hindu]]&#039;&#039; wrote: &amp;quot;What makes the series convincing is the way it captures the inability of the experts in different fields to answer all the questions, and how the case impacted the lives of journalists who covered it, as well as the policemen and forensic experts who investigated it. Whatever they say solves a part of the jigsaw puzzle, but could not complete the picture, because ultimately there is no clear consensus even on whether it was a crime story.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite news|last=Kumar|first=Anuj|date=2021-10-09|title=&#039;House of Secrets: The Burari Deaths&#039; review: The autopsy of a society|language=en-IN|work=The Hindu|url=https://www.thehindu.com/entertainment/movies/house-of-secrets-the-burari-deaths-review-the-autopsy-of-a-society/article36912409.ece|access-date=2021-10-20|issn=0971-751X}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pooja Biraia Jaiswal of &#039;&#039;[[The Week (Indian magazine)|The Week]]&#039;&#039; says, &amp;quot;The impact is chilling, thanks to a compelling screenplay. By the end of the series, one is bound to get goose bumps. But the drawback is that there is no sense of finality. Although a line-up of experts dissects Lalit’s psychology and the family’s dynamics, in the end, one is left with more questions than answers.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web|title=Review: &#039;House of Secrets: The Burari Deaths&#039;|url=https://www.theweek.in/theweek/leisure/2021/10/14/review-house-of-secrets-the-burari-deaths.html|access-date=2021-10-20|website=The Week|language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ektaa Malik of &#039;&#039;[[The Indian Express|Indian Express]]&#039;&#039; states, &amp;quot;From incorporating the many conspiracy theories, to revealing the actual truth, the docu-series unravels like a work of fiction, backed by a solid screenplay. But its execution is hampered by the short-sightedness of its creators.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web|date=2021-10-12|title=House of Secrets The Burari Deaths review: Netflix docu-series gives goosebumps but fails to ask the right questions|url=https://indianexpress.com/article/entertainment/web-series/house-of-secrets-the-burari-deaths-review-netflix-docu-series-7566100/|access-date=2021-10-20|website=The Indian Express|language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

The &#039;&#039;&#039;Mechanised Infantry Regiment&#039;&#039;&#039; is an [[infantry]] [[regiment]] of the [[Indian Army]], comprising 27 battalions (including 3 tracked and 2 wheeled reconnaissance and support battalions) dispersed under various armoured formations throughout India. Together with the 23 battalions of [[Brigade of the Guards]], they form part of the &#039;&#039;Mechanised Infantry&#039;&#039; arm, which along with the [[Indian Army Armoured Corps|Armoured Corps]] form the Mechanised Forces.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=https://www.tribuneindia.com/news/archive/nation/4-new-mechanised-battalions-for-army-349271|title=4 new mechanised battalions for Army|date=2017-01-12|access-date=2022-04-09}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==History==&lt;br /&gt;
The Mechanised Infantry Regiment is one of the youngest regiments in the army and was the mastermind of [[Krishnaswamy Sundarji|General K Sundarji]], who had the foresight to cater to the needs of a modern army.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=https://pib.gov.in/newsite/PrintRelease.aspx?relid=189859|title=Second General K Sundarji Memorial Lecture|date=2019-04-27|access-date=2022-04-09}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; After the [[Indo-Pakistani War of 1965]], a need was felt to give infantry battalions greater mobility, especially when operating with armoured formations. In 1969, 1st Madras became the first infantry unit to be equipped with the [[armoured personnel carrier]] (APC) [[OT-62 TOPAS|TOPAS]]. In 1970, nine more of the oldest battalions from various infantry regiments were equipped with APCs, these included TOPAS, [[OT-64 SKOT|SKOT]] and [[BTR-60]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=https://salute.co.in/raising-of-the-mechanised-infantry-regiment/|title=RAISING OF THE MECHANISED INFANTRY REGIMENT|date=2017-09-10|access-date=2022-04-09}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;  These battalions remained affiliated with their erstwhile Infantry Regiments and Regimental Centres and did not form a separate regiment. Eventually, fourteen old infantry battalions were mechanised.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Infantry&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.indiandefencereview.com/spotlights/infantry-regiments-the-cutting-edge-of-soldiering/0/|title=Infantry Regiments: The cutting edge of Soldiering|date=2018-01-24|access-date=2022-04-09}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;IA&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=https://indianarmy.nic.in/Site/FormTemplete/frmTempSimple.aspx?MnId=a6ojAr7FSFAgvNAVrQMY4A==&amp;amp;ParentID=EAdr3F/pgLnf+YStJqXDDg==|title=Mech Inf Brief History|date=|access-date=2022-04-09}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During the [[Indo-Pakistani War of 1971]], some of these battalions saw action as part of combat groupings with [[Indian Army Armoured Corps|armoured units]] for the first time.&lt;br /&gt;
The APCs were replaced with [[BMP-1]] Infantry Combat Vehicles between 1977 and 1978. The need for something more concrete and viable was felt, along with a need to develop a common battle and training philosophy with regards to the type of tactics. This necessitated the raising a totally new arm in the Indian Army, resulting in the various mechanised battalions being brought together under a single [[cap badge]] as the Mechanised Infantry Regiment, which was raised with fourteen battalions on 2 April 1979 and the affairs of the regiment were transferred from Directorate General of Infantry to Armoured Corps Directorate, which was renamed the Directorate General Mechanised Forces in  1986. Gen K Sundarji was appointed the first Colonel of the Mechanised Infantry Regiment, the post he held till his retirement.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Infantry&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=autogenerated1&amp;gt;[http://www.bharat-rakshak.com/LAND-FORCES/Units/Infantry/99-Mechanised.html Bharat Rakshak :: Land Forces Site - The Mechanised Infantry Regiment&amp;lt;!-- Bot generated title --&amp;gt;] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120126113816/http://www.bharat-rakshak.com/LAND-FORCES/Units/Infantry/99-Mechanised.html |date=2012-01-26 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Stamp of India - 1988 - Colnect 165238 - The Mechanised Infantry Regiment.jpeg|thumb|305x305px|1988 postal stamp]]&lt;br /&gt;
The regiment saw a rapid expansion in the 1980s. Mechanised infantry battalions numbered 15 to 26 have been raised on all-India mixed class composition, unlike the older units, which were single class ones. The only exception was 20 Rajput, which joined the regiment as the 24th battalion in April 1992.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;IA&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The Mechanised Infantry Regiment has been involved in [[Operation Pawan]] in Sri Lanka, [[Operation Rakshak]] in [[Punjab, India|Punjab]] and [[Kashmir|Jammu &amp;amp; Kashmir]] and [[Operation Vijay (1999)|Operation Vijay]] in Jammu &amp;amp; Kashmir. It also took part in UN Peacekeeping Operations in [[Somalia]], [[Democratic Republic of the Congo|Congo]], [[Angola]] and [[Sierra Leone]].The Regiment is affiliated to the Indian Naval Ship [[INS Gharial (L23)|Gharial]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Infantry&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=autogenerated1/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

===Mechanised Infantry Centre and School===&lt;br /&gt;
The &#039;&#039;Mechanised Infantry Regimental Centre (MIRC)&#039;&#039; was established on 2 April 1979 at [[Ahmednagar]] and it is spread over 2179 acres. It trains approximately 950 recruits annually.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=https://punekarnews.in/mechanised-infantry-regimental-centre-ahmednagar/|title=MECHANISED INFANTRY REGIMENTAL CENTRE- AHMEDNAGAR|date=23 September 2015|access-date=2022-04-09}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; It has three training battalions: Infantry Training Battalion, Composite Training Battalion and Driving and Maintenance Battalion.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:0&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite web|url=https://salute.co.in/raising-of-the-mechanised-infantry-regimental-centre/|title = Raising of the Mechanised Infantry Regimental Centre|date = 10 September 2017}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; It was renamed as the &#039;&#039;Mechanised Infantry Centre and School (MIC&amp;amp;S)&#039;&#039; on 17 September 2021.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=https://pib.gov.in/PressReleaseIframePage.aspx?PRID=2016955|title=Raising Day of MECH INF Centre and School (MIC&amp;amp;S), Ahmednagar|date=2024-04-02|access-date=2024-11-05}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; In addition to the troops from the Mechanised Infantry, those from the Brigade of the Guards undergo their &#039;mechanised&#039; training at the MIC&amp;amp;S.

&lt;br /&gt;
===Quarter Guard===&lt;br /&gt;
The Quarter Guard of the MIRC was created on 9 August 1979 during the first biennial conference. After the sanction of KLP, the present Quarter Guard was conceptualised in half circular area with front wide platform. The new Quarter Guard was completed in 1986.

&lt;br /&gt;
==History==&lt;br /&gt;
Following is the summary of events related to UP-PAC:&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;upp-pac&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
*1937–1941: In 1937, a decision was taken to organise a Police force of sanctioned strength of 7,000 personnel to be organised along military lines. The PAC Act stated the aim as an Act to raise an armed force for Law and Order duties, to be organised and drilled on military lines. The first 2 companies were accordingly raised by Colonel Thompson of the [[1st Brahmans]] with the help of Landlords of [[Deoria, Uttar Pradesh|Deoria]] and [[Ballia]] and from landlord&#039;s militias and retired sepoys. The first two companies were raised in 1937 and were paid for entirely by subscription of the landlords and businessmen. 15 battalions of [[United Provinces (1937–50)|United Provinces]] Military Police were raised from fresh recruits and retired military jawans between 1937 and 1942, the majority (6 battalions) from [[Bhumihar]]s and [[Rajputs]] from the Eastern part of the State ([[Poorvanchal]]), and 5 battalions with [[Jats]] and [[Tyagi]]s from [[Meerut]], [[Baghpat]], [[Kairana]], and [[Muzaffarnagar]] mixed with Poorvias; 3 battalions with [[Lodh]] and [[Jats]] from [[Agra]], [[Mathura]], [[Aligarh]], [[Hathras]] and [[Bulandshahr]] mixed with Poorvias and Tyagis/Jats both; and 1 battalion raised from [[Jats]], [[Rajput]]s and [[Ahir]]s of [[Moradabad]], [[Bareilly]], [[Aonla, Uttar Pradesh|Aonla]], [[Pilibhit]], [[Badaun]] and [[Shahjahanpur]], mixed with Poorvias. So from the beginning, the [[martial races]] and specifically the [[Bhumihar]]s and [[Rajput]]s of [[Poorvanchal]] constituted a majority of the composition of the force. Each Battalion had 4 companies and each company was to be headed by a DySP.&lt;br /&gt;
*1948: United Provinces Military Police and United Provinces State Armed Constabulary were amalgamated into the United Provinces Provincial Armed Constabulary by enactment of [http://uppolice.up.nic.in/All%20Rules/The%20U.P.%20Pradeshik%20Armed%20%20Constabulary%20Act,%201948.pdf The U.P. Pradeshik Armed Constabulary Act, 1948 - Uttar Pradesh]&lt;br /&gt;
*1950: Renamed to Uttar Pradesh Provincial Armed Constabulary due change of name of state&lt;br /&gt;
*1956: Renamed to Uttar Pradesh Pradeshik Armed Constabulary by enactment of U.P. Act XXX of 1956&lt;br /&gt;
*1962-73: 17 new battalions were raised, mostly from [[Bhumihar]]s, [[Rajput]]s and [[Yadav]]s from [[Poorvanchal]] and [[Tyagi]]s and [[Jat]]s from [[Meerut]], [[Baghpat]], [[Muzaffarnagar]], and [[Bulandshahr]]; but also 4 battalions from the [[Garhwali people|Garhwalis]] and [[Kumauni people|Kumaonis]], and [[martial races]] ([[Rajputs]], [[Lodh]]s, [[Ahir]]s, and [[Gujjar]]s from [[Agra]], [[Etah]], [[Mainpuri]], [[Etawah]], [[Firozabad district|Firozabad]] and the [[Bundelkhand]] region of [[Jalaun]], [[Jhansi]] and [[Auraiya]].).&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
A unit called Special Police Force (SPF) previously existed to operate in cooperation with [[Indian Army]]. In the 1990s the SPF was merged into the 9th battalion of the PAC, which is situated in [[Moradabad]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The 46 Battalion called Task Force existed till 1998 (Jawans use to wear insignia of Tiger on their Uniform&#039;s Arms), with the special task to fight Dacoits and Insurgents on achieving its goal was again converted to normal PAC Battalion (Presently located at Rudrapur, under Uttarakhand Provincial Armed Constabulary).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In [[1973 Uttar Pradesh Provincial Armed Constabulary revolt|May 1973, 12 battalions of the UP-PAC revolted]] and the Army was called in to control. About 30 policemen were killed and hundreds were arrested and dismissed from service.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;PI&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite book | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=WIrLjQrgJGoC&amp;amp;pg=PA473 | title=The police in India | publisher=Atlantic Publishers &amp;amp; Dist | year=1997 | access-date=2013-06-25 | author=M.

==Controversies==&lt;br /&gt;
The [[Kosovo]] boxing team was prevented from competing at the tournament despite Serbia&#039;s hosting contract requiring Serbia to allow all teams to compete. (The contract further requires that all teams be allowed to compete under their own flags and explicitly includes Kosovo; [[International Boxing Association (amateur)|AIBA]] recognizes the [[Membership of Kosovo in international sports federations#International federations and associations membership|Kosovo Boxing Federation]] as a full member.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web | url=https://www.iba.sport/national-federations/europe/ | title=Swedish Boxing Federation }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;) Two days prior to the tournament, the [[Kosovo]] boxing team was denied entry into Serbia at border control, effectively shutting them out of the tournament. During negotiations between AIBA and Serbia, Serbia stated to AIBA that Kosovo would not be allowed to compete except under the AIBA flag; this was rejected by Kosovo. One day prior to the tournament, AIBA suggested a compromise to Serbia where Kosovo would compete under &amp;quot;a neutral flag&amp;quot; (similar to Russia&#039;s situation); this was rejected by Serbia.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web | url=https://www.insidethegames.biz/articles/1114550/kok-kosovo-boxing-serbia | title=Kosovo boxing team denied entry to Serbia for third time }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web | url=https://www.insidethegames.biz/articles/1114956/michael-houston-serbia-kosovo-boxing | title=Michael Houston: Serbia shutout shows where politics should stay out of sport }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web | url=https://balkaninsight.com/2021/10/25/serbia-bars-kosovo-team-from-competing-in-boxing-championship/ | title=Serbia Bars Kosovo Team from Competing in Boxing Championship | date=25 October 2021 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In December 2021 after the tournament, the [[International Olympic Committee]] sent a letter to Serbia condemning the incident.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web | url=https://www.insidethegames.biz/articles/1120746/no-kosovo-flag-world-indoor-champs | title=Kosovo flag not on World Athletics website for Indoor Championships in Serbia }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

== History==&lt;br /&gt;
The traditional belief is that during Ramayana era, [[Rama]] and his Vanara Sena (monkey warriors) went to [[Sri Lanka]] thru this way. And [[Pandava]]s who came along with Rama had stayed in this location and hence this village got its Name as Pandavarmangalam. &amp;quot;Pandaver&amp;quot; refers to Pandavas and &amp;quot;Mangalam&amp;quot; means Prosperity. Similarly, The Vanara Sena stayed nearby location and hence the next village got its name as Mandhithopu. &amp;quot;Mandhi&amp;quot; Means Monkey and &amp;quot;Thoppu&amp;quot; Means Farm Trees.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Nonetheless, others states that &amp;quot;Pandi&amp;quot; refers to the [[rice field]] where Rice was cultivated. &amp;quot;Avar&amp;quot; refers to people who has and &amp;quot;Mangalam&amp;quot; Refers to Prosperity. Hence Pandavarmangalam refers to The land of people who has Rice Field and Prosperity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Sports==&lt;br /&gt;
The Kuppusamy Naidu Memorial Tournament started in Pandavarmangalam at 1945 was conducted every year and it was the second oldest hockey tournament in [[India]]. It happens every year for around 15 days and hockey teams from all over India participate in this tournament. This tournament was conducted in Hockey Ground next to Nadar High School in Pandavarmangalam Panchayat, which was discontinued in this ground due to land dispute.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
