    Map of Bahrain

    The history of the post and postage stamps of Bahrain, an island state on the archipelago of the same name in the Persian Gulf in Southwest Asia and the smallest Arab state, is conditionally divided into the period of its stay under the protectorate of Great Britain (1861-1971) and the period of the independent Kingdom of Bahrain (since August 14, 1971). Prior to the issue of its own stamps in 1960, Bahrain used postage stamps of British India without overprints (until 1933), then with overprints (1933-1947), postage stamps of Great Britain with overprints (1948-1960).

    Bahrain is a member of the Universal Postal Union (UPU; since 1973)[1]. Since May 1, 1986, Bahrain has been a member of the Arab Postal Union[2]. The government also co-founded the Gulf Postal Organization[2]. A regular visitor to the site is the Bahrain Post company[ru].

    Mail Development

    The first post office in Bahrain opened on August 1, 1884 in the capital Manama.[3][4] That bililial Indian Post Office (Indian Post Office) in Bushir (Iran), while both of them referred to the Bombay Postal Circle (Bombay Postal Circle). This post office remained the only one until 1946. The Indian postal tariffs applied to Bahrain[4]. Until 1933, postage stamps of British India were used in Bahrain without any overprints[3][5]. The stamps that have passed the post there are installed according to the impressions of postmarks, which are shown in specialized catalogs[5].

    Bahrain's second post office opened in Muharraq in 1946.[2]

    After the partition of British India in 1947, the Bahraini post was taken over by the Postal Service of Pakistan, and from April 1, 1948 — by the British Postal Agency[4].

    In 1950, a post office was opened in Avali specifically for the unconventional BAPCO company — the third in the country[2].

    In the early 1950s, the Bahrain Post Office became relatively independent[6].

    Since January 1, 1966, Bahrain has had its own currency (1 Bahraini dinar = 1000 fils) and an independent postal administration was formed[4].

    In connection with gaining independence from Great Britain and joining the UN, Bahrain was admitted to the Universal Postal Union on December 22, 1973[2].

    The growth in the volume of postal shipments in the kingdom was characterized by the following figures:[6]
    Using steamboats 1966 1970 1974
    Emails sent 1 899 2 426 4 800
    Letters received 8,680 11,195 15,300
    Parcels sent 3,576 3,030 5,000
    Parcels received 5,292 7,398 8,300
    Using aircraft 1966 1970 1974
    Emails sent, thous. kg 86.9 70.4 95.0
    Letters received, thousand. kg 61.9 89.3 165.0
    Parcels sent 2 604 5 627 14 100
    Parcels received 18,536 25,853 22,300

    The volume of postal transfers in both directions in 1970 amounted to an amount equivalent to 135 thousand Bahraini dinars, and in 1975 it was estimated at 200 thousand dinars[6]. At the same time, 120 thousand telegrams were sent from Bahrain annually, and 150 thousand telegrams were received[6].

    On May 1, 1986, the Kingdom became a member of the Arab Postal Union[2].

    Currently, all domestic and international mail passes through the Sorting Center in Muharraq, where they are sorted and sent to post offices[2].

    Postage stamp issues
    Overprints on stamps of British India

    Postage stamps of British India overprinted with the English "BAHRAIN" ("Barein") were in the UK in 1933-1947, first with the image of George V (1933), and then — George VI from 1938 [3] [7]. In total, overprints were made on 49 different postage stamps[4].

    Indian postage stamps from the Pobeda issue were also on sale in Bahrain in January 1946, and in 1934 a vintage notebook with a nominal value of 16 annas was issued[5].

    Overprints on UK stamps

    In 1948-1960, British postage stamps with the image of George VI and then Elizabeth II with the overprint of the word "Bahrain" ("Bahrain") and the corresponding denomination in Indian currency were in postal circulation in Bahrain[3][7]. The circulation of these stamps is small: a total of 16,460 complete sets were issued[4]. They remained in postal circulation until July 1, 1960[4]. There are many varieties that are listed in specialized catalogs and are hunted by philatelists[5].
    The first original stamps
    Barein's first postal unit, 1976 (Sc #247a)

    The first original postage stamps specially issued for Bahrain were a series of 11 standard stamps, which was published in 1960[3][8]. The postal miniatures depicted Sheikh Salman ibn Hamad al-Khalifa (eng. Salman ibn Hamad Al Khalifa (1894-1961)) with the Arabic text at the top[7].

    In 1964, a new standard series (11 denominations) with the image of Sheikh Isa ibn Salman al-Khalifa was released, which became the last series issued by the British postal administration [4][7].

    Bahrain Post received independence from the United Kingdom on January 1, 1966, when another standard series of 12 stamps with the image of the sheikh and drawings of local themes was issued[4][7].

    The next standard series of the kingdom appeared in circulation in 1976-1979[4].

    In 1966, the first commemorative stamps of Bahrain were issued[3]. They were dedicated to the trade fair and exhibition[4].

    Commemorative stamps were issued in the country on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the introduction of school education, the opening of a satellite tracking station, Independence Day, the 100th anniversary of the Universal Postal Union and other occasions[4].

    In 1975, a small sheet of 8 stamps dedicated to the breeding of purebred Arabian horses was published[4]. In the same design, a series about hounds was published[4]. A series of 8 stamps published in 1980 is dedicated to the traditional hobby of the Arabs — falconry[4].

    In 1976, the first postal block was released[3][4]. Its plot is the first flight of the Concorde aircraft on the Bahrain—London route[4].
    Emission policy

    After gaining postal independence, the Bahraini Post adhered to a conservative issue policy, issuing four to five series of postage stamps a year, occasionally issuing a new series of standard stamps[7]. The stamps usually featured stories of a local or regional nature[7]. In the period from 1933 to 1982, about 320 different stamps were issued in total[4].
    Other types of postage stamps
    Postal and tax

    In 1973, two postal and tax stamps of the mandatory military tax were issued. The brand is not listed in most catalogs.

    he Soviet Union (Russian: Сове́тский Сою́з, tr. Sovétsky Soyúz, IPA: [sɐˈvʲɛt͡skʲɪj sɐˈjus] (About this sound listen)), officially the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (Russian: Сою́з Сове́тских Социалисти́ческих Респу́блик, tr. Soyúz Sovétskikh Sotsialistícheskikh Respúblik, IPA: [sɐˈjus sɐˈvʲɛtskʲɪx sətsɨəlʲɪsˈtʲitɕɪskʲɪx rʲɪˈspublʲɪk] (About this sound listen)), abbreviated as the USSR (Russian: СССР, tr. SSSR), was a socialist state in Eurasia that existed from 1922 to 1991. Nominally a union of multiple national Soviet republics,[a] its government and economy were highly centralized. The country was a one-party state, governed by the Communist Party with Moscow as its capital in its largest republic, the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic. Other major urban centres were Leningrad, Kiev, Minsk, Tashkent and Novosibirsk. The Soviet Union was one of the five recognized nuclear weapons states and possessed the largest stockpile of weapons of mass destruction.[7] It was a founding permanent member of the United Nations Security Council, as well as a member of the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) and the leading member of the Council for Mutual Economic Assistance (CMEA) and the Warsaw Pact.

    The Soviet Union had its roots in the October Revolution of 1917, when the Bolsheviks, led by Vladimir Lenin, overthrew the Russian Provisional Government which had replaced Tsar Nicholas II during World War I. In 1922, after a civil war, the Soviet Union was formed with the unification of the Russian, Transcaucasian, Ukrainian and Byelorussian republics. Following Lenin's death in 1924 and a brief power struggle, Joseph Stalin came to power in the mid-1920s. Under Stalin's leadership, the Soviet Union transitioned from a market economy into a centrally planned economy which led to a period of rapid industrialization and collectivization. As industrial production skyrocketed, the Soviet Union achieved full employment, implemented a universal healthcare system, sharply reduced illiteracy, and provided guarantees of paid vacations, rest homes, and recreational clubs. This period of industrialization was a time of enormous improvements in the standard of living for millions of people in the country, starkly contrasting with the situations of other countries during the Great Depression, but was also a time characterized by major institutional shortcomings and failures. In the 1930s, with the rise of fascism in Europe, the Communist Party pursued aggressive campaigns to suppress potential counter-revolution, fermenting political paranoia which culminated in the Great Purge in which extrajudicial arrests and executions of suspected counter-revolutionaries led to an estimated 600,000 deaths. As a result of these mass arrests, penal labor through the Gulag system was used to construct infrastructure projects, though this consistently proved to be an inefficient system throughout its existence.[8] Increased demand for agricultural products to pay for industrialization combined with a relatively low harvest yield led to the famine of 1932–33 in which an estimated 2.4 to 4 million people died in the country's agricultural centers of Ukraine, southern Russia, and Kazakhstan.[9][10]

    After the rise of Adolf Hitler in Germany, Stalin tried repeatedly to form an anti-fascist alliance with other European countries. However, finding no support, shortly before World War II, the Soviet Union became the last major country to sign a treaty with Germany with the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact, after which the two countries invaded Poland in September 1939. In June 1941, the pact collapsed as Germany invaded the Soviet Union, opening the largest and bloodiest theatre of war in history. Soviet war casualties accounted for the highest proportion of the conflict in the effort of acquiring the upper hand over Axis forces at intense battles such as Stalingrad and Kursk. The territories overtaken by the Red Army became satellite states of the Soviet Union; the postwar division of Europe into capitalist and communist halves would lead to increased tensions with the West, led by the United States.

    The Cold War emerged by 1947, as the Eastern Bloc, united under the Warsaw Pact in 1955, confronted the Western Bloc, united under NATO in 1949. On 5 March 1953, Stalin died and was quickly succeeded by Nikita Khrushchev, who in 1956 denounced Stalin and began the De-Stalinization of Soviet society through the Khrushchev Thaw. The Soviet Union took an early lead in the Space Race, with the first artificial satellite and the first human spaceflight. Khrushchev was removed from power by his colleagues in 1964 and was succeeded as head of state by Leonid Brezhnev. In the 1970s, there was a brief détente of relations with the United States, but tensions resumed with the Soviet–Afghan War in 1979. In the mid-1980s, the last Soviet leader, Mikhail Gorbachev, sought to reform and liberalize the economy through his policies of glasnost (government transparency) and perestroika (openness, restructuring). Under Gorbachev, the role of the Communist Party in governing the state was removed from the constitution, causing a surge of severe political instability to set in. The Cold War ended during his tenure, and in 1989, Soviet satellite states in Eastern Europe overthrew their respective communist governments.

    With the rise of strong nationalist and separatist movements inside the union republics, Gorbachev tried to avert a dissolution of the Soviet Union in the post-Cold War era. A March 1991 referendum, boycotted by some republics, resulted in a majority of participating citizens voting in favor of preserving the union as a renewed federation. Gorbachev's power was greatly diminished after Russian President Boris Yeltsin played a high-profile role in facing down an abortive August 1991 coup d'état attempted by Communist Party hardliners. On 25 December 1991, Gorbachev resigned and the remaining twelve constituent republics emerged as independent post-Soviet states. The Russian Federation—formerly the Russian SFSR—assumed the Soviet Union's rights and obligations and is recognized as the successor state of the Soviet Union.[11][12][13] In summing up the international ramifications of these events, Vladislav Zubok stated: "The collapse of the Soviet empire was an event of epochal geopolitical, military, ideological and economic significance.
