By consolidating their power in Eastern Europe, setting up puppet communist regimes in all the countries they had liberated, with the exception of Yugoslavia. They were also looking to expand into other countries like Iran and Greece, but due to aggressive American containment policy, the Soviets almost always backed down. They were also probably beginning research on their own atomic weapons. They were doing a lot more, I'm positive, but I really couldn't tell you what exactly.
The USSR is formed in Russia as a result of the 1917 Revolution & the subsequent civil war. Russia ended WW1 with the treaty of Brest-Litovsk. Lenin was the first leader, followed by Stalin in 1924.
The Soviet Union expanded their influence after World War 2 by going to Emilie's and Brittany's house in Gainesville Florida. They sure did have a lot of fun;) ....if you know what I mean! ahahahaha
Soviet had invaded some countries in the beginning of the war, according to the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact, where Stalin and Hitler had divided Europe between them. During the later part of the war, Soviet invaded and occupied most of Eastern Europe, as Germany had held it, or the countries had been her allies.
Stalin consolidated conquered territories to the Soviet Union, some as Union states. Other countries got a Soviet supported communist puppet regime.
When WWII ended, the relations began to freeze with the former allies. The beginning of the cold war included the blockade of Berlin and garrisoning of major military forces in strategic positions in the Warsaw treaty area. So an arms race with the United States and the west started, leading to development of nuclear arms in several countries and ballistic missiles.
Also the support or intervention in the political conflicts in some countries by both sides, led to wars (e.g. Korean War). The Russians tended to support communist politicians and rebel forces in many countries around the world, but with time the socialists got divided, with internal conflict between revolutionaries and democrats, Stalinists, Leninists, Maoists and Trotskyists, etc.
It became bigger and more powerful as a result of the country's it took after they were invaded by the Germans. It eventually became so top heavy that it was no longer able to survive as an economic unit and split back into the original country's that were forced to be subject to it.
The soviet Union took over the Eastern half of Germany.
They kept the nations they got when they defeated the Nazis: The Eastern Bloc of European nations.
They Didn't rule I rule!!!!
The Cold War was the fear that the Soviet Union would expand communism.
It was B Mussolini wanted to expand his country to challenge the Soviet Union, but Hitler wanted to expand his country to increase trade with the Soviet Union.
everywhere. Stalin wanted the world's workers to revolt against capitalism
His impact to the world was that he was a egomenist president who believed in brute force
The Soviet Union's (and more specifically, Joseph Stalin's) goals during World War II were two-fold. First, they wanted to destroy their most dangerous rival and belligerent, Nazi Germany. Secondly, they wished to expand their Soviet Communist system to control as many people and resources as possible.

The statesman who championed world Sovietism after World War II was Joseph Stalin. As the leader of the Soviet Union, Stalin aimed to spread communism and expand Soviet influence globally. He supported the establishment of communist governments in Eastern Europe and promoted international socialist movements.
