26 sett 1956 anni - Hungarian Revolution

Descrizione:

This began as a Hungarian protest against Communist rule in Budapest after the Stalin-like leader, Matyas Rakosi. Khruschev appointed a new, more liberal leader, Imre Nagy.

However Nagy made unacceptable reforms in Khrushchev's mind, that aligned Hungary to a more capitalist-style country. Khruschev sent in 200,000 troops to crush the new government. Nagy was executed and a pro-communist leader, Janos Kadar was put into power.

This was the first large event concerning discontent amongst Communism.
