it is also one of the most multicultural and ethnically diverse nations, due to over a century of mass immigration from around the world. <SEP> <P3-S0> italy became a major industrialized country again, due to its post-war economic miracle. <P3-S1> the european union (eu) involved the division of powers, with taxation, health and education handled by the nation states, while the eu had charge of market rules, competition, legal standards and environmentalism. <P3-S2> the soviet economic and political system collapsed, leading to the end of communism in the satellite countries in 1989, and the dissolution of the soviet union itself in 1991. as a consequence, europe's integration deepened, the continent became depolarised, and the european union expanded to subsequently include many of the formerly communist european countries – romania and bulgaria (2007) and croatia (2013). <SEP> <P4-S0> Naina Yeltsina was rarely seen in public. <P4-S1> She accompanied her husband on some of his foreign visits, including 1997 visits to Sweden, Finland, and a 1999 visit to China. <P4-S2> As a rule, Naina Yeltsina never interfered in her husband's political work. <P4-S3> However, in the 1996 election campaign, she met with voters and gave interviews to the media. <P4-S4> A major public appearance was the state funeral of her late husband in Moscow in April 2007. <SEP> <P5-S0> The Space Race began on August 2, 1955, when the Soviet Union responded to the US announcement four days earlier of intent to launch artificial satellites for the International Geophysical Year, by declaring they would also launch a satellite ``in the near future ''. <P5-S1> The Soviet Union beat the US to this, with the October 4, 1957, orbiting of Sputnik 1, and later beat the US to the first human in space, Yuri Gagarin, on April 12, 1961. <P5-S2> The`` race'' peaked with the July 20, 1969, US landing of the first humans on the Moon with Apollo 11. <P5-S3> The USSR tried but failed crewed lunar missions, and eventually canceled them and concentrated on Earth orbital space stations.
