Communism, the flag bearer
When communism took over the huge territory that became known as Soviet Union (11 time zones), had to deal with 200+ languages and 50 plus countries, which they attached without asking for permission.

There were dozens of ugly four story buildings parallel to each other. The apartment buildings had no elevators and no internal toilets. There were several wooden outhouses between the buildings. I have no idea how the tenants managed. They were certainly affordable, the equivalent of about 30 rubles per month on a salary of 1,200 rubles per month. That is affordable.

This factory was only few hundred miles away from the location were the Soviets launched the Sputnik.
If you think affordability was due to a benevolent government, think again. It had to do with power and population control.
