e citizens due to the fact that the government did not live up to it's promise of a better life and the failure of the government to properly deal with social problems. The other factors were economic, many of which we can see are apparent in the new system. In it's current situation we are seeing the same factors. Unless these problems are addressed quickly and resolved effectively we will see the decline of yet another Russian governmental system. On looking at the past we can see that the Russian public must overcome many hurdles in order for them to truly embrace Democracy and enjoy the promises of a better life that it has made. The government must promote theeducation of it's citizens and communicate more efficiently with them. There is a long road ahead for the Russian Federation in this enormous task, and at this time it almost seems impossible. ---BibliographyFunk & Wagnalls.
