Difference (from prior major revision) (no other diffs)

Changed: 5c5

The SovietUnion was the most genocidal regime in human history, murdering an estimated 62 million people. The majority of these, some 42 million, were murdered by Stalin between 1929 and 1953. After Stalin, the Soviet regime murdered over 6 million people within its own borders. Perhaps the final act of murder was the VilniusMassacre?, in which 14 people were killed by gunfire and tanks in Vilnius, Lithuania. MikhailGorbachev? ordered the killings just months after being awarded the NobelPeacePrize?.
