Question

state the incidents of civil war in Russia

Answer 1

The Russian Civil War was a multi-party war in the former Russian Empire immediately after the two Russian Revolutions of 1917, as many factions vied to determine Russia's political future.

Answer 2

Russia’s disastrous performance in World War I was one of the primary causes of the Russian Revolution of 1917, which swept aside the Romanov dynasty and installed a government that was eager to end the fighting. The Treaty of Brest-Litovsk (1918) whereby Russia yielded large portions of its territory to Germany caused a breachbetween the Bolsheviks (Communists) and the Left Socialist Revolutionaries, who thereupon left the coalition. In the next months there was a marked drawing together of two main groups of Russian opponents of Lenin:
(1) the non-Bolshevik left, who had been finally alienated from Lenin by his dissolution of the constituent Assembly and
(2) the rightist whites, whose main asset was the Volunteer Army in the Kuban steppes.
