The Soviet Union was formally dissolved in 1991, leaving 15 'new' states and countries, including Russia.

As a result of the 1917 Revolution, Russia became the Russian Soviet Federated Socialist Republic which joined with Ukraine, Belorussia and the Transcaucasus Federation to create the Soviet Union.

Soviet Union was officially established in Dec. of 1922.

"Russia" did not "become" the Soviet Union. After the Russian Revolution, Russia became the Russian Socialist Federated Soviet Republic. In December 1922, it joined with Ukraine, Belorussia and the Transcaucasus Federation and that union became the Soviet Union.
