Throughout history, many nomadic groups moved through Russia and the Eurasian Republics. What is the lasting impact of these migrations?

This question has two parts.

This excerpt describes the reasons Russians migrated to other Soviet republics during the middle of the twentieth century.

The Soviet Union, the world's first communist country, was made up of Russia as well as the territory of 14 other present day countries. The U.S.S.R. existed from 1922 to 1991. Many Russians moved to other Soviet republics between 1950 and the mid-1970s. For example, migrants from Russia moved to Ukraine and Belarus during the 1950s to rebuild cities damaged during World War II. Russian farmers moved to Kazakhstan to grow crops on available land. Many Russians moved to republics in Central Asia to work in newly built factories. After 1991, the communist party lost power, and the Soviet Union broke up into a number of independent states, leaving many ethnic Russians living outside Russia.

The former nation of Yugoslavia was located on the Balkan Peninsula. The nation was created after World War I to bring together the many cultures of the region. The population of Yugoslavia was made up of many ethnic groups that often fought with each other. There were also more than forty different religions in the region.

The many different ethnic groups made a unified government difficult to maintain. These differences resulted in civil war that lasted through much of the early 1990s. Nations in Europe and the United States used military force to try to keep civilians safe. The United States helped bring an end to the war. A peace treaty was signed in 1995. Six new nations were formed from the old Yugoslavia. After the war, the countries began repairing war damage as well as searching for war criminals. Peacekeeping forces from the United States and Europe stayed in the region until 2004 to make sure fighting had ended.

Why was the government of Yugoslavia likely unable to keep the country unified?
