  1. (historical, dated) Soviet Union
    Synonym: Sovjetunie
    • 1934 April 6, “Rusland. Niet-aanvalsverdragen verlengd. Ruslands relaties met de randstaten. Toespraak van Litwinof. [Russia. Non-aggression treaties renewed. Russia's relations with the neighbouring states. Speech by Litvinov.]”, in Goudsche Courant, Gouda, page 1:
      De Sovjet-staat, waaraan nationalisme, rassenvooroordelen e.d. vreemd zijn, ziet zijn taak niet in verovering en expansie en de eer van zijn volk niet in de opvoeding in militairen geest en bloeddorst, maar in het ideaal van den opbouw van een socialistische maatschappij. De radenbond heeft bij oproepen tot versterking en behoud van den vrede steeds met ja geantwoord.
      The Soviet state, to which nationalism, racial prejudice and the like are alien, does not see its mission in conquest and expansion, and does not see the honour of its people in educating them in a military spirit and bloodlust, but in the ideal of building a socialist society. When called upon to strengthen and maintain peace, the union of soviets has always answered in the affirmative.
