2003 AD Hungary 1956 & Czechoslovakia 1968
So far as one can tell from the patchy reports, it sounds more like Hungary 1956 than Czechoslovakia 1989. The reports are still patchy but this summer's looking more like 1989 every day. The only question is which of the European models applies: the Czech version, where the old monsters are civilized enough to perform one real service for their people by handing power over peacefully; the Romanian version, where the saner elements in the ruling party decide to remove the leadership and hope that's enough to assuage their subjects; the Bulgar version, where the former Royal Family returns from exile to spearhead a new democracy . . .
