What was The Warsaw Pact?
            
            
             The Warsaw Pact was a treaty signed in Warsaw, Poland
            
             in June of 1955. The Countries involved in signing the pact
            
             were Albania, Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, East Germany,
            
             Hungary, Poland, Romania, and the Soviet Union. The pact
            
             was a Communist equivalent to the, North Atlantic Treaty
            
             Organization (NATO). The pact was made necessary because of
            
             the remilitarization of West Germany (Paris pacts of 1954).
            
             The Warsaw pact was binding for twenty years but was badly
            
             scarred after the, European collective security treaty. The
            
             1989 collapse of communist governments in Eastern Europe,
            
             made the treaty superfluous, as new governments began to
            
             dominate their former ally, the Soviet Union. The Pact
            
             fully dissolved in June, 1991.
