Soviet era
Soviet era is the period of Russian history comprising the years 1917 – 1991, when the power was held by the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. Nominally, however, the power belonged to the soviets ("councils"), hence the name Soviet era.
Note that the Soviet Union was created in 1922, five years after the Soviet era began.
