The Russian Civil War was an internal conflict in Russia from 1917 to 1922. It was a result of the Russian defeat in World War I, as well as the incompetence and political backwardness of the regime. The revolutionaries were communist Bolsheviks, known as "Reds", while the internationally-backed tsarists were known as "Whites". All of the 'Allies' of World War I, 14 countries altogether fought against the fledgling country for years, even while WWI was still being fought, with Japan fighting on until 1925.[1][2]
