Communism: Poland and Yugoslavia Rise Term Paper

Conclusion

The historical events leading to the communist invasion of both territories, Poland and Yugoslavia were external influences and occurred as the aftermath of the Second World War when the Nazis were attempting to create a communist power block. The takeover was somewhat willing in Poland based on the manipulative skills of the Soviet Government while in Yugoslavia the Red Army had to force their way into the territory, in both cases, however, they had to force their authority to maintain control over the captured territory. Neither of them offered much support nor got much support form the local parties in fact, in both cases, the Nazis tried eliminating the opposing parties. They each faced serious antagonism and their way of dealing with it was forceful eradication in both cases.The only difference perhaps lies in the fact that the public in Yugoslavia was the one to bring about an administrative change and modification in reforms while in Poland it was the lack-luster and ignorant attitude of the government in power that led to the fall of eth communist ideal.
