Het Rode Leger van Leon Trotski tijdens de Russische Burgeroorlog

The Red Army was founded in 1918 by Leon Trotsky during the Russian Civil War following the October Revolution (part of the Russian Revolution) in 1917. At the time, the Bolshevik government faced opposition from various groups, including the Whites, who consisted of several anti-Bolshevik units. The Red Army was created to defend the Bolshevik government and ensure its survival. Under Trotsky's leadership, the Red Army grew in size and strength and ultimately played a crucial role in the Bolshevik victory in the Civil War. The Red Army was known for its discipline, organization, and revolutionary fervor. It was also characterized by its willingness to use ruthless tactics to defeat its enemies. After the Bolshevik victory in the Civil War, the Red Army became the basis for the Soviet Union's military establishment. Trotsky served as People's Commissar for War and oversaw the development of the Red Army and its integration into the Soviet state. Learn about Leon Trotsky's Red Army during the Russian Civil War.
