Why did the Soviet Union Collapse?..

The Soviet Union went bankrupt.
By 1991, it could no longer maintain the normal functioning of its civil economy (read: feeding and sheltering people) and run its enormous military-industrial complex at the same time. The Kremlin had to choose, for the first time since WWII.
Lenin and Stalin would have chosen the military. Population would have started to revolt, and they would have quieted it all down by an epic blood-letting and strangulation. The North Korean Kims did that in the 1990s, and it worked.
