Hey future history nerds! Buckle up! We're going on a rollercoaster through Sino-Soviet relations, invasions, and betrayals. If you think the drama in high school is high stakes, you haven't seen anything yet!🚀

Section i - The Prague Spring and Brezhnev Doctrine 🌍

What is the Brezhnev Doctrine? 👓

  • Brezhnev Doctrine: It's like the Soviet Union saying, "Hey, Eastern Europe, you're part of my squad, so you gotta follow my rules!"
  • Prague Spring: Imagine you're tired of your parents' (Soviet Union's) rules and try to get a little freedom (Czechoslovakia). Oops! They're not cool with that! Soviet tanks came rolling in 1968 to shut it down.

Impact? 🎯

  • Busted Reputation: Think of it as the Soviet Union getting a bad review on the "Communist Yelp". Other Communist countries started side-eyeing them, including China.

Real-world example

  • Think about the U.S. and NATO. If a NATO country went rogue, the U.S. might interfere to get things back on track.

Section ii - Sino-Soviet Border Tensions 🐉

What Happened? 🚧

  • China and the Soviet Union were like feuding neighbors who couldn't agree on where their property line was. By 1969, they were almost at war.

Why Does This Matter? 😡

  • They were both nuclear powers. Imagine two students with fire extinguishers, but instead of water, it's, well... nuclear.
