    		While they were "Republics", I think many people would dispute whether any of those SSR's actually were republics.

    		"A republic is a form of government in which the head of state is not a monarch and the people (or at least a part of its people) have an impact on its government."

    With a fairly large emphasis on the parenthetical phrase, these were all republics.
