The end of bipolarity refers to the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, marking the end of the Cold War and the U.S.-Soviet power struggle. This shift led to a unipolar world dominated by the United States, followed by a gradual move toward multipolarity with rising powers like China, Russia, and the European Union. The dissolution of the USSR resulted in new independent states, economic transitions, and regional conflicts. Institutions like NATO and the United Nations adapted to new security challenges, while globalization reshaped political and economic dynamics. The post-Cold War era continues to evolve with shifting global power structures.
