    Pepsi is the second most popular soft drink in the world - just below Coca-Cola. It has been that way for much of its lifetime with one exception: the Soviet Union. For nearly two decades, Pepsi was the one and only soft drink of the USSR. How it became the preferred soda of the Soviets involved Richard Nixon, vodka, and eventually ended up with Pepsi coming into possession of the 6th largest submarine fleet in the world. But Pepsi's stint as a global naval power - as well as its domination of the USSR soda market - turned out to be short-lived because the fall of Communism would take Pepsi with it. Enjoy!

    Pepsi could have used their naval power to take over Coca Cola.

    One of my teachers in school had a collection of air from all over the world, and his Moscow air was in a ПЕПСИ КОЛА bottle. That was always my favourite one.

    Pepsi was a second Genghis Kahn, taking over Eurasia, and yet still 2nd to Coca cola.
