The Red Army during the Russian Civil War

The Red Army was founded by Leon Trotsky in 1918 during the Russian Civil War after the October Revolution (part of the Russian Revolution) in 1917. At the time, the Bolshevik government faced opposition from several groups, including the Whites, who were composed of various anti-Bolshevik forces. 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, eventually playing 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 brutal 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 the People's Commissar for War, overseeing the development of the Red Army and its integration into the Soviet state.
