| Publisher Description: Forcibly annexed to the Soviet Union 51 years before, the Baltic States - Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania - regained independence in 1991 after an abortive coup in Moscow that accelerated the collapse of the Soviet regime. These nations then embarked on a course of political and economic reintegration with the West. |
