The reforms that led to democratization of the Soviet Union were begun by Gorbachev because the Soviet Union was near bankruptcy, and capitalism meant more money for them. Pope John Paul and Ronald Reagan also had some responsibility for the democratization.

What led directly to the fall of the solvate union?

The fall of the Soviet Union was primarily driven by a combination of economic stagnation, political corruption, and the failure of reforms initiated by Mikhail Gorbachev, such as perestroika (economic restructuring) and glasnost (political openness). These reforms inadvertently weakened the central authority and fueled nationalist movements within the various Soviet republics. Additionally, the arms race with the West and the burden of maintaining a vast military presence contributed to the economic decline. The culmination of these factors led to the declaration of independence by multiple republics and the eventual dissolution of the Soviet Union in December 1991.
