After Bolsheviks sighn peace with the central powers, bunch of Czechoslovak units that were fighting for the entente get stuck in Russia. Since they are traitors to the Austria-Hungary they must leave through the Vladivostok. Some Czechoslovak idiots get in a fight with some Hungarian idiots stuck in a similiar situation. It escalates and the Bolshiviks now see them as enemy. So they take control of the most important railway in Russia loot some gold and fight/retreat their way to the east where they regroup with the intervensionist forces. Realising that they don't want to die, in a losing battle, in conflict in which they have no stakes in, they catpure Kolchak and give him to the Soviets as a piece offering (along with the return of Russian gold), giving them safe passage through the Bolshevik controled territory, allowing them to finally return home.
@@nobody4248 More or less. To be more specific: 1. It wasn't a bunch of Czechoslovak units, but basically the whole army they had at that time. 2. Bolsheviks wanted them to surrender all weapons on the request of the Germans, as they were originally heading to France during the last German offensive. Their refusal was a main reason for the whole conflict. 3. Gold was not looted, it was given under their protection. They later on gave it to Kolchak who used it to pay his troops and to buy foreign weapons. 4. Kolchak wasn't really captured with force or some kind of ambush. After his army broke, he was traveling with the Czechoslovaks together to the east, but they were all surrounded after more of his troops revolted and joined the Reds. Czechoslovaks had to leave him behind with the rest of the gold (and so did Entente, the officer who made the deal was French), to be allowed to leave the country. One way or another, he would die in that encirclement.
Fun fact: One of the Siberian states that cropped up during the 1917-1918 anarchy issued money that claimed the value of the banknotes was banked up by a pile of gold hidden in a basement somewhere

However he was more of a separatist than anything else. Russian Civil War is such a mess to categorize, ngl
He was just very good at finding really determined and competent people. And making them work together. Yes, then they all begin to fight each other after Lenin's death (so all this failed coups Stalin was busy crushing until WWII) but for the time being, dream team was assembled and firstly win hearts and minds, then rebuilded military and win the war. That is a valuable lesson for anyone who want to make a difference: best leader is actually hypercompetent HR who see people's true potential and knows who he need to bring to his cause (and how to do it) and who is not worth or have insincere motives.
@@AtticusKarpenter Good to see that someone finally mentions that Stalin was fighting actual coup attempts and not some random citizens who wanted to wear jeans like western media tends to insist.
What’s even more crazy, is when you realise that this was just one civil war happening in one fallen empires during this period. There were ongoing conflicts in neighbouring countries as well like the Hungary-Romanian conflict, the Turkish national revolution fought against Entente and the Armenians, Greeks and Kurdish; and then you had China as well that was breaking apart into regional warlords. A massive region of Eurasia, stretching from Prague to Guangzhou was arguably consumed in some kind of unstable civil war.
I don't know how to explain it, but learning about Russian civil war nations feels like you're witnessing a parallel universe I mean, you had Ungern Von Stenberg that wanted to REBUILD THE MONGOL EMPIRE, Green Ukraine and other weird nations It just gives such strong alternate reality vibes
The Russian Civil War was hands down, the most world defining war prior to WW2. Not even WW1 could compare. The World's biggest empire collapsed into hundreds of factions and ideologies. The structure collapsed into one of the most violent and bloodiest civil wars that even the seperatists had their own civil war and the World Powers could not just resist and join the fun. You had the Brits in Karelia, French in Crimea, Americans-Canadians in Vladivostok, Finnish Civil War, Polish-Ukrainian War, Italians in Central Siberia, Battle of Lake Baikal that had a LANDLOCK NATION WINS A NAVAL BATTLE, Czechs having their own tomfoolery in the Trans-Siberian Railway, FUCKING ANARCHISTS IN UKRAINE, UKRAINIANS IN AMUR, there was so many events happening all at the same time. And it all happened from Russia collapsing. Whoever won would define what Russia would be. A Socialist Bastion? A Monarchist Status Quo? A Republican Nation? A Anarchist Free Territory? So many outcomes and so many consequences.
The Allied Powers in different places across Russia has some unexpected crossovers. And then we got the newly independent countries like the Baltics and Ukraine having their own civil wars, South Russia is a shitshow of a battle royale between separatists, Whites, and Communists. And then Lenin And Trotsky pulls out 5 million men out of nowhere and wipes everyone off the map.
I disagree. The only thing that the Russian civil war did was delay the economic growth of Russia. Also, the battle of Lake Tanganyika was a landlocked lake battle fought between the Entente and Germany. WW1 was also MUCH more defining than the Russian civil war because it meant the total collapse of two of Europe's great powers, albeit weak ones. It also set in place the dominoes for a fascist Germany and WW2.
Stalin in his speech about the German invasion mentioned that there’s no reasons to lose hope because the reds fought much bigger war which they won, and it’s the Russian civil war in which they were opposing the whole world at this point
Western interventionist didn't even send their troops into the battle, what the hell does" opposing the whole world at this point" means? What it means is just another bolshevik lie

I love the fact that each of the side of the conflict had a small internal civil war at some point. Ukraine for example had 3 revolutions in a year. Also my favourite part of this war is the Czechoslovak legion that casually decided to blockade the entire supply to Siberia and steal White army golden reserves
@@tefky7964 thats the funny thing. The cossacs only got some of the gold back. The czechs dragged the rest through russia, out of vladivostok, and returned to Czechoslovakia when that was made. They invested it in their economy and that was part of the enormous check military industral complex that hitler captured when he split up czechoslovakia. 1/3 of the german armys tanks were made there. Then when the soviet union desamated hitler a lot of that gold and factories were taken as war reparations. Thus goes the cycle of gold in nature.
@@danilvinyukov2060 Even those who claim that Czechoslovakian legion took the gold say that maximum was around 1/8 of that gold,so you got 7/8 of it back. Yet,no matter how much Russians like to act like victim as much as possible, there is not any evidence at all that we took any part of it. From the start of the civil war,gold was completely counted and guarded by different sides,which owned it through war. When Soviets and Czechoslovakians made an aggrement about free pasage from Russia and exchange of gold, all vagons with gold were counted again by commission formed by people from both sides and they compared it with numbers from the National bank. After this,they all aggred that legionares didn´t stole anything. Myth about stolen gold is mostly repeated by populist websites of doubtful quality with minimal historical knowledge, just wanting to get more readers.
@@tefky7964 You just made a strawman of my case where I told how the gold was stolen, made a claim not backed up by any links that the russians are just looking for a reason to blame others for intervening in their civil wars although both civil wars in russia (1917-1945 and 1991-present) were riddled with interventions of foreign forces. And then to finish off you mde the claim that any websites that tell a alternate viewpoint to what you voiced are just populists and have no historical knowledge meaning that even if i try to counter your statement you will just claim I have false data. You seem to have you mind set so i doubt this will be effective but here is a point i wanted to make. During the civil war there was no unified "white" union. There was kolchak with his provisional all russian government , denikin with the armed forces of south russia, the north west army led by Yudenich and semyonov in the transbaikal. Each named themselfs the rightfull rulers of russia and if the bolsheviks were destroyed there would have been a lot of fighting between these groups for who deserved to head the government. On the rebelions side, apart from the reds led by Lenin and the bolsheviks you had makhno who led the black army of anarchists and the so aclled "green movement" where you essentially had any peasant that tried to protect his land from the reds and the whites. Due to this there could not have been a "carefully counted commitioning" of the gold as you claim because there we not two set sides, more of a set of shards controlled by varois groups and with shifting alliances. However I will give you that indeed most of the gold was recovered by the reds in exchange for the czechs getting their passage, that is true. However around a third of it still went missing with sources speculating that it was either spent by kolchak in western banks or stolen by the czechs or lies in traincarts at the bottom of a lake. So you were right there. However part of iy didend up in czechoslovakia. So my story is not entirely false either.
@@danilvinyukov2060 You didn´t provide any sources too. I never said that other forces didn´t invervene in the civil war,you totaly made it up,I said that Russians really love to play victim and ignoring their own bad parts of history.

Because the Soviets did not invade Lithuania. The ex Imperial forces stuck in Lithuania invaded the Soviets which led to combat. But Lithuania and the RSFSR were never at war. They actually had very good relations with each other. Lenin already agreed to respect Baltic independence in 1918 and helped Lithuania defend against Poland in 1921.
The Soviets treated Lithuania and Latvia with great respect. Many Lithuanians fought in the Soviet army. One of the most combat-ready units of the Red Army was the "Latvian Riflemen". Many Lithuanians occupied leading positions in the USSR.

Russian schools teach nowadays that although there were many factions, there were only a few major ones. We are not told everything in detail, alas, too much information in the last days of school. In short, everyone was divided into whites, reds and greens. The Whites were for the old order, the Reds for communism, and the Greens were specifically defined as all other groups that had their own goals or even numbers. Everyone had their own vision, even the communists competed with each other. All men fought, and those that did not fight suffered at the hands of those that did, because there was no difference between the groups and their management - all needed manpower and food resources that could only be taken by force during the war. The difference began to appear only after war, when the Communists finally began to industrialize country and bring it out of stagnation, from which the Whites did not want to come out. In the end, if Whites had won, Russia would have had to pay back other nations for aid in the form of land and money, and Green victory would have meant a complete split of Russia, so Red victory is considered a bloody but happy ending.

Tell me more about this
@@balajikumar4027 Look up the Czechoslovak Legion
If youtube didnt strike down this video 50 times i would have included them
After Bolsheviks sighn peace with the central powers, bunch of Czechoslovak units that were fighting for the entente get stuck in Russia. Since they are traitors to the Austria-Hungary they must leave through the Vladivostok. Some Czechoslovak idiots get in a fight with some Hungarian idiots stuck in a similiar situation. It escalates and the Bolshiviks now see them as enemy. So they take control of the most important railway in Russia loot some gold and fight/retreat their way to the east where they regroup with the intervensionist forces. Realising that they don't want to die, in a losing battle, in conflict in which they have no stakes in, they catpure Kolchak and give him to the Soviets as a piece offering (along with the return of Russian gold), giving them safe passage through the Bolshevik controled territory, allowing them to finally return home.
@@nobody4248 More or less. To be more specific:
1. It wasn't a bunch of Czechoslovak units, but basically the whole army they had at that time.
2. Bolsheviks wanted them to surrender all weapons on the request of the Germans, as they were originally heading to France during the last German offensive. Their refusal was a main reason for the whole conflict.
3. Gold was not looted, it was given under their protection. They later on gave it to Kolchak who used it to pay his troops and to buy foreign weapons.
4. Kolchak wasn't really captured with force or some kind of ambush. After his army broke, he was traveling with the Czechoslovaks together to the east, but they were all surrounded after more of his troops revolted and joined the Reds. Czechoslovaks had to leave him behind with the rest of the gold (and so did Entente, the officer who made the deal was French), to be allowed to leave the country. One way or another, he would die in that encirclement.
Fun fact: One of the Siberian states that cropped up during the 1917-1918 anarchy issued money that claimed the value of the banknotes was banked up by a pile of gold hidden in a basement somewhere
so fiat currency.

What’s even more crazy, is when you realise that this was just one civil war happening in one fallen empires during this period. There were ongoing conflicts in neighbouring countries as well like the Hungary-Romanian conflict, the Turkish national revolution fought against Entente and the Armenians, Greeks and Kurdish; and then you had China as well that was breaking apart into regional warlords. A massive region of Eurasia, stretching from Prague to Guangzhou was arguably consumed in some kind of unstable civil war.
If the WW1 was a game, the five years after it end would be a sequel or a DLC
its border gore and everything wrong, its funny because after ww1, the world was truley at war with everybody fighting eachtoher, and killing

Russia has too many separatist factions and opposition. The red army destroyed all of them
The Russian Civil War was hands down, the most world defining war prior to WW2. Not even WW1 could compare. The World's biggest empire collapsed into hundreds of factions and ideologies. The structure collapsed into one of the most violent and bloodiest civil wars that even the seperatists had their own civil war and the World Powers could not just resist and join the fun.
You had the Brits in Karelia, French in Crimea, Americans-Canadians in Vladivostok, Finnish Civil War, Polish-Ukrainian War, Italians in Central Siberia, Battle of Lake Baikal that had a LANDLOCK NATION WINS A NAVAL BATTLE, Czechs having their own tomfoolery in the Trans-Siberian Railway, FUCKING ANARCHISTS IN UKRAINE, UKRAINIANS IN AMUR, there was so many events happening all at the same time.
And it all happened from Russia collapsing. Whoever won would define what Russia would be. A Socialist Bastion? A Monarchist Status Quo? A Republican Nation? A Anarchist Free Territory? So many outcomes and so many consequences.
The Allied Powers in different places across Russia has some unexpected crossovers.
And then we got the newly independent countries like the Baltics and Ukraine having their own civil wars, South Russia is a shitshow of a battle royale between separatists, Whites, and Communists.

I disagree. The only thing that the Russian civil war did was delay the economic growth of Russia. Also, the battle of Lake Tanganyika was a landlocked lake battle fought between the Entente and Germany. WW1 was also MUCH more defining than the Russian civil war because it meant the total collapse of two of Europe's great powers, albeit weak ones. It also set in place the dominoes for a fascist Germany and WW2.
World: How many Wars do you have ?

I love the fact that each of the side of the conflict had a small internal civil war at some point. Ukraine for example had 3 revolutions in a year. Also my favourite part of this war is the Czechoslovak legion that casually decided to blockade the entire supply to Siberia and steal White army golden reserves
They got their gold back.
@@tefky7964 thats the funny thing. The cossacs only got some of the gold back. The czechs dragged the rest through russia, out of vladivostok, and returned to Czechoslovakia when that was made. They invested it in their economy and that was part of the enormous check military industral complex that hitler captured when he split up czechoslovakia. 1/3 of the german armys tanks were made there.
Then when the soviet union desamated hitler a lot of that gold and factories were taken as war reparations.
Thus goes the cycle of gold in nature.
@@danilvinyukov2060 Even those who claim that Czechoslovakian legion took the gold say that maximum was around 1/8 of that gold,so you got 7/8 of it back. Yet,no matter how much Russians like to act like victim as much as possible, there is not any evidence at all that we took any part of it. From the start of the civil war,gold was completely counted and guarded by different sides,which owned it through war. When Soviets and Czechoslovakians made an aggrement about free pasage from Russia and exchange of gold, all vagons with gold were counted again by commission formed by people from both sides and they compared it with numbers from the National bank. After this,they all aggred that legionares didn´t stole anything. Myth about stolen gold is mostly repeated by populist websites of doubtful quality with minimal historical knowledge, just wanting to get more readers.
@@tefky7964 You just made a strawman of my case where I told how the gold was stolen, made a claim not backed up by any links that the russians are just looking for a reason to blame others for intervening in their civil wars although both civil wars in russia (1917-1945 and 1991-present) were riddled with interventions of foreign forces.
And then to finish off you mde the claim that any websites that tell a alternate viewpoint to what you voiced are just populists and have no historical knowledge meaning that even if i try to counter your statement you will just claim I have false data.
You seem to have you mind set so i doubt this will be effective but here is a point i wanted to make. During the civil war there was no unified "white" union. There was kolchak with his provisional all russian government , denikin with the armed forces of south russia, the north west army led by Yudenich and semyonov in the transbaikal. Each named themselfs the rightfull rulers of russia and if the bolsheviks were destroyed there would have been a lot of fighting between these groups for who deserved to head the government.
On the rebelions side, apart from the reds led by Lenin and the bolsheviks you had makhno who led the black army of anarchists and the so aclled "green movement" where you essentially had any peasant that tried to protect his land from the reds and the whites.
Due to this there could not have been a "carefully counted commitioning" of the gold as you claim because there we not two set sides, more of a set of shards controlled by varois groups and with shifting alliances.
However I will give you that indeed most of the gold was recovered by the reds in exchange for the czechs getting their passage, that is true. However around a third of it still went missing with sources speculating that it was either spent by kolchak in western banks or stolen by the czechs or lies in traincarts at the bottom of a lake.
So you were right there. However part of iy didend up in czechoslovakia. So my story is not entirely false either.
@@danilvinyukov2060 You didn´t provide any sources too.
I never said that other forces didn´t invervene in the civil war,you totaly made it up,I said that Russians really love to play victim and ignoring their own bad parts of history.

The only Russian veteran of the Western Front to rise to the rank of Marshal of the Soviet Union, who went on to volunteer for the Republican side in the Spanish Civil War, then commanding the army that pushed Manstein's relief of Stalingrad, then commanding the 2nd Ukrainian Front liberating Southern Ukraine, Romania, Hungary and Slovakia then rise all the way up to the Defense Minister of USSR overseeing the Cuban missile deployment in 1962 almost leading to the end of human civilization.

Lithuania: I play both sides so I always come out on top
When you have civil wars inside of a civil war.
Civil inception war
Because the Soviets did not invade Lithuania. The ex Imperial forces stuck in Lithuania invaded the Soviets which led to combat. But Lithuania and the RSFSR were never at war. They actually had very good relations with each other. Lenin already agreed to respect Baltic independence in 1918 and helped Lithuania defend against Poland in 1921.
The Soviets treated Lithuania and Latvia with great respect. Many Lithuanians fought in the Soviet army. One of the most combat-ready units of the Red Army was the "Latvian Riflemen". Many Lithuanians occupied leading positions in the USSR.
this is like getting declared a coalition war and having 30 rebellions in eu4

Russia post civil war was not a superpower the allies withdrew as their entire intervention was to bring Russia back into the war and after the surrender of Germany they had no reason to stay, there was a famine which supposedly killed 8 to 10 million, collectivisation and the Red Terror didn't necessarily help Russia either, the NEP did replace War Communism though which help the economy to recover but saw dispute in the party because they thought they were betrayed, another thing being Lenin made a deal with the Black Army, or the anarchists to cut the white armies supplies when they were on the move to the capital and because the whites had so many differing policies they couldn't unite but if the Romanovs weren't murdered in 1918 they could have been united.

Russian schools teach nowadays that although there were many factions, there were only a few major ones. We are not told everything in detail, alas, too much information in the last days of school. In short, everyone was divided into whites, reds and greens. The Whites were for the old order, the Reds for communism, and the Greens were specifically defined as all other groups that had their own goals or even numbers. Everyone had their own vision, even the communists competed with each other. All men fought, and those that did not fight suffered at the hands of those that did, because there was no difference between the groups and their management - all needed manpower and food resources that could only be taken by force during the war. The difference began to appear only after war, when the Communists finally began to industrialize country and bring it out of stagnation, from which the Whites did not want to come out.
In the end, if Whites had won, Russia would have had to pay back other nations for aid in the form of land and money, and Green victory would have meant a complete split of Russia, so Red victory is considered a bloody but happy ending.
