what was triggered civil war in Russia

Answer 1

Finally, Britain, America and France, angry that Russia had dropped out of the First World War, attacked the Bolsheviks. They were afraid because the Bolsheviks wanted to cause communist revolutions all over the world. There were three reasons why Civil War broke out in Russia in 1918.

Answer 2

The Bolsheviks had ordered the redistribution of land and the Russian army began to break up. Soldiers wanted to home for redistribution and deserted. Non Bolsheviks like pro tsarists and liberals moved to South Russia and organised troops to fight the Bolsheviks and this rivalry between Bolsheviks and Non Bolsheviks gave rise to the civil war in Russia
