Synopsis
Czechoslovakia, one of the most rigid and authoritarian of the former Soviet Union's satellite states, started the transition from communism with high hopes. But a decade of change exposed the full extent of the damage wrought to the country through decades of communist rule; the country could not hold together, splitting apart into two independent states in 1993.
