The Cold War that happened in 1989 was the peaceful revolutions and the fall of the Berlin Wall, which symbolized the end of the division between East and West Germany. This event marked the beginning of the end of the Cold War and led to significant political changes in Eastern Europe, ultimately leading to the dissolution of the Soviet Union and the end of communist regimes in the region.
1989 saw the collapse of communist rule in East Germany and talks started immediately on the reunification of Germany which happened in 1990.
There can be no such thing as a Communist government, as Communism has no state (or classes or money). The governments referred to here were state capitalist.
The Iron Curtain was brought down between 1989 and 1990 when communist governments in Eastern Europe were deposed.
the cold war was coming to an end. Apex :)
Cuba never had a formalized opposition, so when the Revolutions of 1989 spread over much of the communist world, no such thing occurred in Cuba. The Communist Party was the only ideological game in town.
The Revolutions of 1989 were the revolutions which overthrew the communist regimes in various Central and Eastern European countries.The events began in Poland in 1989, and continued in Hungary, East Germany, Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia and Romania. Romania was the only Eastern Bloc country to overthrow the regime violently. The Berlin wall also came down in Germany.
Countries or Counties?
Hungary is not communist. They were before the fall of USSR. They are now democratic, but are slowly moving toward the right-wing as Jobbik has gained enough power in the government to be able to change it.
Well, most of them disappeared between about 1989 and 1991. Second world countries are communist.

Eastern Europe, particularly countries such as Poland, Hungary, and Czechoslovakia, made significant strides towards democracy in 1989. This period, known as the Revolutions of 1989, saw the fall of communist regimes and the transition to democratic systems in these countries.
The two Russian Revolutions in 1917 left the Bolsheviks ('majority') in power in Russia. The end of Russian communism is debatable. The communist ideology was losing favor and losing economically by 1989. The official end of the Communist Party rule was 1991. Many communist-style structures have continued in place long after the end of communism.
