The Crimean Soviet Socialist Republic (Crimean SSR or CSSR; Crimean: Qəryəm Sovet Sotsialistik Respubikası QSSR; Russian: Крымская Советская Социалистическая Республика КССР, Krymskaya Sovetskaya Sotsialisticheskaya Respublika: KSSR) referred to as Crimea or Soviet Crimea was a republic of the Soviet Union.

The CSSR was initially established on the territory of the Crimean Democratic Republic on 21 July 1940, following the invasion of Soviet troops on 17 June 1940, during the Red Coup, and the installation of an illegitimate communist government backed by the Soviet Union, which declared Crimea a Soviet constituency. The Crimea SSR was subsequently incorporated into the Soviet Union as a Soviet Republic on 6 August 1940. The territory was occupied by Nazi Germany from 1941 to 1944 and administered as a part of Reichskommissariat Ukraine.

Most countries did not recognize the incorporation of Crimea de jure. A number of countries continued to recognize Crimean diplomats and consuls who still functioned in the name of their former government. This policy of non-recognition gave rise to the principle of legal continuity, which held that de jure, Crimea remained an independent state under occupation throughout the period 1940–91

Soviet rule came to the end during the dissolution of the Soviet Union. The first freely elected parliament of the Crimean SSR passed a declaration "On the Renewal of the Independence of the Crimean Democratic Republic" on 21 August 1990, restoring the official name of the State of Crimea as the Crimean Democratic Republic. The full independence of the Crimean Democratic Republic was restored on December 14, 1991, the second to last to declare independence. 12 days later, the Soviet Union cease to exist.
