I'm not a fan of conspiracy theories but why did all these events happen in a single year?

aldous huxley, C S Lewis, and JFK all died on the same day.

>dissolution of USSR
>1991

Well all these events were directly related to USSR's collapse, they are part of the same process

Taylor Swift was born in 1989

Well they were satellite states. When the Big Guy of communism falls apart you don't really have much of a reason to continue. Not to mention there was a significant amount of resentment for the ideology in those countries.

Why did so many revolutions happen in 1848?
Isn't it some kind of conspiracy?
>>
>>312082
Dissolution of USSR and fall of communism in Bulgaria (volantary switch by their commie party would be more apt) happened a bit later
>>
>>312082
Gorbachev stopped supporting the USSR's satellite states and then went on to destroy his own country's economy.
>>
>>312184
It's further interesting how before Gorbachev the USSR had 2 leaders that died within just a year of serving their post.
>>
>>312227
They were really fucking old. Yuri Andropov could've probably saved the USSR (or, at the very least, maintain it stable, if stagnant) if Brezhnev had died sooner and thus Andropov hadn't been on the brink of death when he became leader.

If you're asking seriously.

Yes, it was British plot to make Europe burn so they won't be bothered. Brits even baited Poles into uprising against Russia, which Prussians provided the weapons for Poles, since they were afraid that if Poles uprise against Prussia, Prussia will become a backwater shithole and Britain would lose it's lapdog in Europe.
>>
Fall of USSR started in Poland, not in Germany.

Could you rephrase your post pls?

I am a bit lost

The main British plot of 1800-1900 was to make Europe burn, meaning - make as many revolutions or uprisings as possible. When those countries would struggle with internal crisis, Brits would be allowed to freely expand their policy and conquer more teritories in colonial areas.

One of the examples in January and November Uprising in Poland. Congress Poland, vassal state inside Russia had the best grain in the world at that time since there was no border with Russia and Russia was the bigest market in the world. - Poles made a lot of money on that grain and Russia didn't buy it from the Brits, since their was overpriced and shit in quality. - That made Brits mad, so they send their "missionaries" to convert Polish Jews to protestantism, but the real reason of that visit was to cause the uprising against Russia and eliminate the grain threat.
Prussians which were pretty much British vassals in Europe knew that if the Poles do the uprising against Prussia, Prussia will lose the richest lands and lose it's prestige - that couldn't happen, so instead Prussians armed Poles to go against Russians. Brits gained, Prussians gained. Win-win situation. Both threat to British ecnomy was eliminated, as well as threat to Prussian existence.
>>
>>312678
To add to that. This isn't official history since Brits are seen as good guys and as we all know, history is written by the winners.

>I'm not a fan of conspiracy theories but why did all these events happen in a single year?
Soros.
>>
>>312695
I wonder if they planned the same in China and if those missionary beheadings were justified in some places or cases....

That doesn't really make any sense. The common western man know the British Empire wasn't very nice and attributing all the revolutions and uprisings to it only adds to its image.
