Prussia existed as a significant European state from the 16th century until the end of World War II in 1947. During this period, the Soviet Union was established in 1922, following the Russian Revolution of 1917. The Soviet Union encompassed a vast territory that included much of Eastern Europe and Northern Asia, existing contemporaneously with the latter years of Prussia's existence. The two entities were ultimately on opposing sides during World War II, with the Soviet Union playing a key role in the defeat of Nazi Germany, which had succeeded Prussia as a major power in the region.
The year of foundation of the USSR is generally given as 1921. The Soviet Union came into existence on December 29-30 1922 when representatives of Russia, Ukraine, Belorussia and the Transcaucasus Federation agreed to and then signed the Treaty of the Soviet Union.
The Soviet Union was never Communist, it was an example of state capitalism. Communism is a classless stateless society based on production for use.
No, East Prussia did not remain a part of Germany after World War II. It was divided between Poland and the Soviet Union, with most of the territory becoming part of Poland.
The Soviet Union would have a larger land area if it were still in existence. Since it has split into Russia, it is still larger than the People's Republic of China.
Prussia was a significant European state that played a central role in the unification of Germany in the 19th century. After World War I, the Treaty of Versailles in 1919 led to the loss of much of its territory and the dismantling of its monarchy. Following World War II, Prussia was officially dissolved in 1947, and its lands were divided primarily between Poland and the Soviet Union, effectively ending its existence as a distinct political entity. Today, the legacy of Prussia remains in the cultural and historical aspects of modern Germany and surrounding nations.
Why did the Soviet Union simply go out of existence in 1991? Beacause communism fell.

No, it isn't. At the time the Soviet Union was still in existence, "Russia" was one part of the Soviet Union, although by far the largest and most dominant. In December 1922, Russia, then known as the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic, joined with Ukraine, Belorussia and the Transcaucasus Federation to form the Soviet Union. After that over time, the Soviet Union annexed or took under its control many other nearby republics, such as Uzbekistan, Khazakstan and others.

Directly, the Russo-Finnish War and the Second World War. Indirectly, pretty much every conflict in Asia, Africa, and the Middle East during the existence of the Soviet Union.
