The 1990s in the former USSR is probably second to only the bubonic plague in terms of decreased quality of life and life expectancy during peacetime.
Shock therapy contributed to something like five million excess deaths.
In Russia between 1990 and 1994 male life expectancy at birth dropped from 63.8 to 57.6 years. Belarus, Ukraine and the Baltics experienced a similar decline. Suicides accounted for 16% of that decrease. Good times.
