Not to be confused with Postal History and Postage Stamps of Equatorial Guinea. The history of mail and postage stamps of Guinea describes the development of postal communications in Guinea, a state in West Africa and the former French colony of French Guinea, bordering Senegal in the north, Mali in the north and northeast, Côte d'Ivoire in the east, in the south - with Liberia, in the southwest - with Sierra Leone, in the northwest - with Guinea-Bissau and washed from the west by the Atlantic Ocean, with its capital in Conakry. Guinea is a member of the Universal Postal Union (UPU; since 1959), and its current national postal operator is the Guinean Postal Office, a state-owned industrial and commercial organization. Postal development From the 16th century, links were established in Guinea with European merchants. In the middle of the 19th century, France entered into a series of treaties with the local rulers of the coastal regions, thereby creating protectorates, which were united in 1882 into one Rivières du Sud protectorate, administratively subordinate to the French colony of Senegal. Until 1892, French post offices opened in coastal areas were managed from Senegal. In 1891, France annexed the protectorate, forming its colony of French Guinea. In the territory of French Guinea, which in 1899 was transferred to her from the French Sudan, there was a post office in Sigiri, which used the postage stamps of French Sudan. The Post Office of Guinea (French L’Office de la Poste Guinéenne) operates on the basis of Law No. 017 on the postal industry of September 8, 2005 and a decree of June 2, 1992. Today, the Guinea Post Office has 174 employees. There are 40 post offices in the country (2014). Issues of postage stamps french guinea Postage stamp of French Guinea, 1913 Postage stamp of French Guinea, 1938 Postage stamp of French Guinea, 1938 From 1881, the coastal regions of French Guinea were administered by the French colony of Senegal and the general postage issues of the French colonies were used there; from 1887 to 1892, postage stamps of the French colony of Senegal were in circulation there. Since French Guinea was set apart as a separate colony, the first set of 13 colonial stamps was issued in 1892. French West Africa French Guinea was annexed to French West Africa along with other French colonies in 1895. In 1904, postage stamps of the original design were issued to replace the colonial-type stamps. On the postage stamps of the colony issued since 1906, there was an inscription fr. Guinée (Guinea), as well as additionally: Afrique Occidentale Française ("French West Africa") or abbreviated as AOF to designate French Guinea as part of the federation of French West Africa [2]. Other inscriptions on the stamps of the colony: "République Française. Colonies" ("French Republic. Colonies"), "Postes" ("Post"), "Guinée Française" ("French Guinea"). In 1937, the first postal block was issued[5]. Postage stamps were issued for French Guinea until they were replaced by those of French West Africa in 1943[4]. Between 1944 and independence in 1958, French West Africa stamps were in circulation in French Guinea. Republic The first stamps of the Republic of Guinea were issued on 5 January 1959 to commemorate independence. It was an overprint of the name of the republic on the postage stamps of French West Africa. At the same time, a series of commemorative stamps was issued. The first postal block of the republic came out in 1962. Almost all postage stamps of the Republic of Guinea were issued with or without perforation. Since 1958, on Guinean postage stamps, the inscription - fr. "République de Guinée" ("Republic of Guinea"). Guinea was also noted in Russia, in particular, the postal block of 1965 was dedicated to the successes of Soviet cosmonautics, and a series of postage stamps were issued in honor of V.I. Lenin and the 60th anniversary of the Great October Socialist Revolution. In 1978-1984, the state was called the People's Revolutionary Republic of Guinea. Other types of postage stamps Airmail Airmail stamps have been issued in the colony since 1940[5]. In 1959, airmail stamps from the Republic of Guinea were issued. On such stamps the inscription: fr. "Poste aérienne" ("Airmail"). Postal Charity In 1915, a charity postage stamp was issued in French Guinea. Additional payment Since 1905, surcharge stamps have been issued in the colony[5]. The first additional stamps of the republic were issued in 1959 [9]. Inscriptions on additional stamps of Guinea: fr. "Taxe" ("Supplement"), "Chiffre-taxe à percevoir" ("Payable"). NOT SO IMPORTANT INFO ABOUT THE PRODUCT Extending across the entirety of Northern Asia and much of Eastern Europe, Russia spans eleven time zones and incorporates a wide range of environments and landforms. From northwest to southeast, Russia shares land borders with Norway, Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Poland (both with Kaliningrad Oblast), Belarus, Ukraine, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, China, Mongolia and North Korea. It shares maritime borders with Japan by the Sea of Okhotsk and the U.S. state of Alaska across the Bering Strait. The East Slavs emerged as a recognizable group in Europe between the 3rd and 8th centuries AD.[18] Founded and ruled by a Varangian warrior elite and their descendants, the medieval state of Rus arose in the 9th century. In 988 it adopted Orthodox Christianity from the Byzantine Empire,[19] beginning the synthesis of Byzantine and Slavic cultures that defined Russian culture for the next millennium.[19] Rus' ultimately disintegrated into a number of smaller states; most of the Rus' lands were overrun by the Mongol invasion and became tributaries of the nomadic Golden Horde in the 13th century.[20] The Grand Duchy of Moscow gradually reunified the surrounding Russian principalities, achieved independence from the Golden Horde, and came to dominate the cultural and political legacy of Kievan Rus'. By the 18th century, the nation had greatly expanded through conquest, annexation, and exploration to become the Russian Empire, which was the third largest empire in history, stretching from Poland on the west to Alaska on the east.[21][22] Following the Russian Revolution, the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic became the largest and leading constituent of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, the world's first constitutionally socialist state.[23] The Soviet Union played a decisive role in the Allied victory in World War II,[24][25] and emerged as a recognized superpower and rival to the United States during the Cold War. The Soviet era saw some of the most significant technological achievements of the 20th century, including the world's first human-made satellite and the launching of the first humans in space. By the end of 1990, the Soviet Union had the world's second largest economy, largest standing military in the world and the largest stockpile of weapons of mass destruction.[26][27][28] Following the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991, twelve independent republics emerged from the USSR: Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and the Baltic states regained independence: Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania; the Russian SFSR reconstituted itself as the Russian Federation and is recognized as the continuing legal personality and sole successor state of the Soviet Union.[29] It is governed as a federal semi-presidential republic. The Russian economy ranks as the twelfth largest by nominal GDP and sixth largest by purchasing power parity in 2015.[30] Russia's extensive mineral and energy resources are the largest such reserves in the world,[31] making it one of the leading producers of oil and natural gas globally.[32][33] The country is one of the five recognized nuclear weapons states and possesses the largest stockpile of weapons of mass destruction.[34] Russia is a great power as well as a regional power and has been characterised as a potential superpower. It is a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council, as well as a member of the G20, the Council of Europe, the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC), the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO), the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE), and the World Trade Organization (WTO), as well as being the leading member of the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) and one of the five members of the Eurasian Economic Union (EEU), along with Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan.

Sovétsky Soyúz, IPA: [sɐˈvʲɛt͡skʲɪj sɐˈjus] (About this sound listen)), officially the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (Russian: Сою́з Сове́тских Социалисти́ческих Респу́блик, tr. Soyúz Sovétskikh Sotsialistícheskikh Respúblik, IPA: [sɐˈjus sɐˈvʲɛtskʲɪx sətsɨəlʲɪsˈtʲitɕɪskʲɪx rʲɪˈspublʲɪk] (About this sound listen)), abbreviated as the USSR (Russian: СССР, tr. SSSR), was a socialist state in Eurasia that existed from 1922 to 1991. Nominally a union of multiple national Soviet republics,[a] its government and economy were highly centralized. The country was a one-party state, governed by the Communist Party with Moscow as its capital in its largest republic, the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic. Other major urban centres were Leningrad, Kiev, Minsk, Tashkent and Novosibirsk. The Soviet Union was one of the five recognized nuclear weapons states and possessed the largest stockpile of weapons of mass destruction.[7] It was a founding permanent member of the United Nations Security Council, as well as a member of the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) and the leading member of the Council for Mutual Economic Assistance (CMEA) and the Warsaw Pact. The Soviet Union had its roots in the October Revolution of 1917, when the Bolsheviks, led by Vladimir Lenin, overthrew the Russian Provisional Government which had replaced Tsar Nicholas II during World War I. In 1922, after a civil war, the Soviet Union was formed with the unification of the Russian, Transcaucasian, Ukrainian and Byelorussian republics. Following Lenin's death in 1924 and a brief power struggle, Joseph Stalin came to power in the mid-1920s. Under Stalin's leadership, the Soviet Union transitioned from a market economy into a centrally planned economy which led to a period of rapid industrialization and collectivization. As industrial production skyrocketed, the Soviet Union achieved full employment, implemented a universal healthcare system, sharply reduced illiteracy, and provided guarantees of paid vacations, rest homes, and recreational clubs. This period of industrialization was a time of enormous improvements in the standard of living for millions of people in the country, starkly contrasting with the situations of other countries during the Great Depression, but was also a time characterized by major institutional shortcomings and failures. In the 1930s, with the rise of fascism in Europe, the Communist Party pursued aggressive campaigns to suppress potential counter-revolution, fermenting political paranoia which culminated in the Great Purge in which extrajudicial arrests and executions of suspected counter-revolutionaries led to an estimated 600,000 deaths. As a result of these mass arrests, penal labor through the Gulag system was used to construct infrastructure projects, though this consistently proved to be an inefficient system throughout its existence.[8] Increased demand for agricultural products to pay for industrialization combined with a relatively low harvest yield led to the famine of 1932–33 in which an estimated 2.4 to 4 million people died in the country's agricultural centers of Ukraine, southern Russia, and Kazakhstan.[9][10] After the rise of Adolf Hitler in Germany, Stalin tried repeatedly to form an anti-fascist alliance with other European countries. However, finding no support, shortly before World War II, the Soviet Union became the last major country to sign a treaty with Germany with the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact, after which the two countries invaded Poland in September 1939. In June 1941, the pact collapsed as Germany invaded the Soviet Union, opening the largest and bloodiest theatre of war in history. Soviet war casualties accounted for the highest proportion of the conflict in the effort of acquiring the upper hand over Axis forces at intense battles such as Stalingrad and Kursk. The territories overtaken by the Red Army became satellite states of the Soviet Union; the postwar division of Europe into capitalist and communist halves would lead to increased tensions with the West, led by the United States. The Cold War emerged by 1947, as the Eastern Bloc, united under the Warsaw Pact in 1955, confronted the Western Bloc, united under NATO in 1949. On 5 March 1953, Stalin died and was quickly succeeded by Nikita Khrushchev, who in 1956 denounced Stalin and began the De-Stalinization of Soviet society through the Khrushchev Thaw. The Soviet Union took an early lead in the Space Race, with the first artificial satellite and the first human spaceflight. Khrushchev was removed from power by his colleagues in 1964 and was succeeded as head of state by Leonid Brezhnev. In the 1970s, there was a brief détente of relations with the United States, but tensions resumed with the Soviet–Afghan War in 1979. In the mid-1980s, the last Soviet leader, Mikhail Gorbachev, sought to reform and liberalize the economy through his policies of glasnost (government transparency) and perestroika (openness, restructuring). Under Gorbachev, the role of the Communist Party in governing the state was removed from the constitution, causing a surge of severe political instability to set in. The Cold War ended during his tenure, and in 1989, Soviet satellite states in Eastern Europe overthrew their respective communist governments. With the rise of strong nationalist and separatist movements inside the union republics, Gorbachev tried to avert a dissolution of the Soviet Union in the post-Cold War era. A March 1991 referendum, boycotted by some republics, resulted in a majority of participating citizens voting in favor of preserving the union as a renewed federation. Gorbachev's power was greatly diminished after Russian President Boris Yeltsin played a high-profile role in facing down an abortive August 1991 coup d'état attempted by Communist Party hardliners. On 25 December 1991, Gorbachev resigned and the remaining twelve constituent republics emerged as independent post-Soviet states. The Russian Federation—formerly the Russian SFSR—assumed the Soviet Union's rights and obligations and is recognized as the successor state of the Soviet Union.[11][12][13] In summing up the international ramifications of these events, Vladislav Zubok stated: "The collapse of the Soviet empire was an event of epochal geopolitical, military, ideological and economic significance.
