Turkmen SSRball was a republic/SSR of Soviet Unionball.
History
Turkmenistanball was born as a 2ball, later adopted by
Russian Empireball. He would make multiple drives into Turkmenistanball before finally capturing him by the late 19th Century. The people were largely indifferent to Russian rule until the Russian Civil War broke out. Revolts broke out against Russian rule, but opposition from
Red Army and
White Movementball was fierce and
Soviet Unionball was formed and crushed the revolt by 1934. He was then made a republic by 1925.
In the 1930s, the Communist Party pursued Russification policies to deter independence from breaking out. Government officials were chosen by those from Moscowball and the republic itself and the
Islamic faith was suppressed until World War II when a Muslim Board was formed to drive up nationalist fervor against
Nazi Germanyball. Islam remained suppressed and was regarded as a "rural folk" belief. In the 1980s, Soviet Unionball was being reformed and Turkmen SSRball was left unaffected due to his self-sufficient population, but was left unprepared for independence when Sovietball died and
Turkmenistanball became independent in 1991.
