🌏🇷🇺The Treaty of Formation of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics

This document legally formalized and cemented the unification of four Soviet socialist republics—RSFSR, Ukrainian SSR, Byelorussian SSR, and Transcaucasian SFSR (Georgia, Azerbaijan, and Armenia)—into a single union state—the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR). The treaty was adopted on December 29, 1922, by a conference of authorized delegations elected by the Congresses of Soviets of these republics. The following day, December 30, 1922, the treaty, along with the Declaration on the Formation of the USSR, was primarily ratified by the First Congress of Soviets of the USSR. On January 31, 1924, the Second Congress of Soviets of the USSR approved the first USSR Constitution, which incorporated the treaty as a fundamental component.

Rooted in Leninist principles of constructing a socialist union state, the treaty established the constitutional foundations of the USSR. It defined the supreme organs of state power and administration, clarified their competencies, and outlined procedures for electing delegates, as well as the norms of representation at the Congresses of Soviets. The treaty also regulated the convening of Soviet Congresses and sessions of the Central Executive Committee (CEC). It detailed the composition of the Council of People's Commissars of the USSR and the union republics and provided for the creation of other central authorities.

Furthermore, the treaty outlined general principles for legislative activity and the subordination of government bodies across the USSR and its republics. It established a system of hierarchy and coordination of acts issued by union and republican authorities, which played a crucial role in ensuring effective governance within the federal structure. The treaty also introduced a unified Soviet citizenship and enshrined the right of any republic to freely withdraw from the Union.
