Additional Information Published as the Soviet Union began to transition to a reformation government under Mikhail Gorbachev, this CIA map depicts the Union in a time of significant cultural and economic shift. Years of sanctions imposed by the United States during the cold war and massive defense spending by the government had stagnated the economy, and citizens felt the brunt of these economic conditions. The death of Leonid Brezhnev in 1982 left a power vacuum that would eventually be overtaken by Gorbachev, who would lead until the fall of the Soviet Union in 1991. Under Gorbachev's rule, greater social and political freedoms were granted, and there was widespread criticism of the communist system. The Soviet Union toppled in 1991 when Boris Yeltsin seized power from Gorbachev following several republics resisting control from the central government and a failed coup that attempted to unseat Gorbachev. The CIA produces geopolitical maps to allow intelligence, military, and government officials to plan international strategy and maintain clear images of a region's cultures, boundaries, and potential for impact to US Foreign Policy interests. Their distinctive aesthetic known for concision, clarity, and accuracy allows the viewer to better understand the history of the region and how it affects future events. Russia's history and sheer vastness have created a distinct culture with substantial regional differences. The Cold War and tensions with the United States have existed since the conclusion of World War II, and these CIA produced maps were integral to American foreign policy and are genuine pieces of cartographical history. Our museum quality giclee print comes printed with archival ink on premium heavyweight matte paper. Shipped in a sturdy cardboard tube your print will arrive ready to be framed. This eye-catching vintage map reproduction print makes the perfect gift for anyone that loves history and imagery.
