Soviet occupation generally refers to the process of Soviet Union occupying territories neighbouring it. A large majority of territories thusly occupied were subjected to Soviet power, either overtly or covertly, during the WWII. With a few exceptions, such as Romania where Soviet troops left in 1958, this occupation lasted up to the Autumn of Nations of 1989, and in some cases, until the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991.
In some territories, puppet governments were set in; in others, regime change was achieved through externally subversive means. In some cases, the Soviet military presence began immediately upon subjugating the territory to Soviet will; in others, the will was supported by a threat of invasion. See, for example, Prague Spring.
