I find it confusing that council republic refers to soviet republic and not the other way around. Council republic is the more general term and for example the German Wikipedia also refers to this form of government by the name of "Räterepublik" which is directly translated to council republic. Renaming this page to council republic would also make it easier to understand that this refers to something different than the Soviet Union and highlight that this is also a form of government which has been adapted in governments outside of the sphere of influence of the Russian speaking world, like for example in present day Kurdistan.
Therefore, my proposal here would be to rename this page and treat soviet republics as a special case of council republics. Zutn (talk) 08:54, 27 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
