             founded on fear. In a later section, we'll examine more closely the fear
             that held sway in the Soviet Union and all other Communist societies,
             and how it was organized.
                 The Soviets did not limit terror to their own people. The outbreak of
             World War II let the Soviet Union spread throughout Eastern Europe.
             When the war ended, a number of countries had fallen under Soviet in-
             fluence. Within a few years, by means of various political plots and ma-
             neuvers, Moscow took them all under its hegemony. Poland, Hungary,
             Czechoslovakia, Romania, Bulgaria, Albania and East Germany fell into
             the clutches of Stalin's bloody legacy.
                 The red savagery inflicted a hellish life on these countries. Those
             opposed to the regime were arrested one by one and subjected to torture
             and execution. In a short time, fear and horror pervaded the whole of so-
             ciety. Long after in the early 1990's, after the fall of Bulgaria's
             Communist regime, a woman filmed in a Bulgarian documentary de-
             scribes what happened to her in the autumn of 1944:
                 The day after my father was first arrested, another policeman arrived
                 around midday and instructed my mother to go to Police Station No. 10 at
                 five o'clock that afternoon. My mother, a beautiful and kind woman, got
                 dressed and left. We, her three children, all waited for her at home. She
                 came back at half past one in the morning, white as a sheet, with her
                 clothes tattered and torn. As soon as she came in, she went to the stove,
                 opened the door, took off all her clothes, and burned them. Then she took
                 a bath, and only then took us in her arms. We went to bed. The next day
                 she made her first suicide attempt, and there were three more after that,
                 and she tried to poison herself twice. She's still alive, I look after her, but
                 she's quite severely mentally ill. I have never found out what they actually
                 did to her.   52
                 Prisoners suffered terribly. The Black Book of Communism de-
             scribes the torture inflicted by Nicolae Ceausescu's regime in Romania:
                 Romania was probably the first country in Europe to introduce t the meth-
                 ods of brainwashing used by the Communists in Asia. Indeed, these tactics
                 may well have been perfected there before they were used on a massive
                 scale in Asia. The evil goal of the enterprise was to induce prisoners to tor-
                 ture one another. The idea was conceived in the prison in Piteşti. The ex-
