EvaluationThe Reds had excellent strategies and communication, they also forced people to support them by using the red terror. The whites were poorly organised and not united enough to defeat the Bolsheviks. Trotsky wanted to spread communism to Germany. but was defeated by the poles outside Warsaw in 1920. The Civil war ended in 1921 with a treaty but was a victory for Lennin. |
