For fifty years the world lived under the shadow of the Cold War, fearing a fatal confrontation between the American and Soviet Union. Millions of individuals lived and suffered under the seventy-year reign of the USSR, crushed under the dead weight of a stagnant empire. But the ascension of Mikhail Gorbachev to the supreme leadership of the Soviet Union in 1985 began a tumultuous period that culminated with the fall of the realm founded by Lenin and Stalin. On Christmas Day in 1991, the Hammer and Sickle Flag of the Soviet Union was lowered for the last time above the Kremlin and replaced with the Russian flag.
I am Closing USSR for good. Its been an amazing run, we've outlasted every other clan out there, but due to inactivity, Diggy quitting temporarily and miscellaneous drama I an ending the clan. This is the big news Ronin had announced was coming up.
To all potential USSR members applying, sorry, you wont get in a non-existent clan. Plans of a much smaller building community are underway but will not be announced for a while, and will not have any application process or take any new members, it will most likely consist of Myself, ronin, Wedge, Afkpuz, Alenth and a few others.
It was definitely a good run, but all good things must come to an end.
