This is what it looked like in Slovakia on 21.8.1968. Armies of the Warsaw pact invaded Czechoslovakia. Why? Because we wanted democracy instead of a communist totalitarian regime.

They killed 148 people and almost half a milion people emigrated in the following years (many died attempting to cross the guarded borders).

They stayed until 1991, leaving behind them ruin, death, enviromental and cutural damage.
