Escalation of ethnic conflicts in the Caucasus region.
The dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991 led to a power vacuum in the region, resulting in numerous ethnic conflicts, particularly in the Caucasus region. This included conflicts in places like Chechnya, Abkhazia, and South Ossetia. These conflicts had far-reaching consequences, leading to violence, displacement of populations, and destabilization of the region. This outcome best characterizes a significant consequence of the dissolution of the Soviet Union.
