Saya tadinya mau pilih dissolution karena banyak hitsnya di google, tapi sebagai kata kerja dissolute hit-nya sedikit, jadi saya lebih memilih disintegrate yang ada contoh kalimatnya yang benar-benar cocok dengan yg saya cari (Uni Sovyet has disintegrated into many countries). Terima kasih atas bantuan Hikmat dan teman-teman. Bagi saya, adalah menarik bahwa kita bisa menemukan jawaban-jawaban yang sama benar untuk satu pertanyaan spt di Kudoz

dissolved


Explanation:
"Uni Soviet bubar menjadi negara-negara kecil seperti Rusia."

=>

"The Soviet Union dissolved into smaller nations such as Russia."

- That is the term normally used when a political entity is disbanded, I think.

- Alternatively, one can also use: "broke-up".
