It was a oil-exporting nation and it lost too much of an important resource, thus crippling the economy.

The "Oil Glut" of the 1980s was a surplus of oil supply caused by the reduced demand due to the 1970s Energy Crisis. After reaching a historical peak of $35 in 1980, the price of the oil barrel would sharply fall from $27 to less than $10 in 1986 due to the excess in the offer. This would severely affect the economic wealth of the Oil producing countries, such as the Soviet Union. This event would be one of the main factors that contributed to an eventual fall of the Soviet regime and dissolution of the country in 1991.

Resumen corto del cuento el armario de tomas Mann
vesna_86 [32]
El cuentro El armario de Thomas Mann narra la historia de Albrecht van der Qualen, un viajero solitario y taciturno el cual no repara en detalles minúsculos de la vida ni le gusta saber en qué ciudad, día o estación se encuentra.La historia comienza cuando Albrecht se despierta de un sueño fugaz en un tren, desorientado. Cuenta como no sabe dónde se encuentra y el placer que esto le proporciona. Al darse cuenta que tal vez pueda estar en una parte de Alemania, Albrecht se baja del tren en búsqueda de un lugar para dormir. Se dirige a una posada gerenciada por una extraña anciana, quien le muestra la habitación en donde se estará quedando. Dicha habitación solo consta de una cama y una armario, lo cual era suficiente para Albrecht. En un punto de la noche, Albrecht se da cuenta que en el armario vive una criatura humana femenina totalmente desnuda, que empieza a contarle historias. El narrador da a entender que Albrecht nunca se mudó de esa posada, ya que había sido encantado por la criatura.
