White Army

The White Army was a coalition of anti-Bolshevik forces during the Russian Civil War (1917-1923). Comprising monarchists, liberals, and moderates, they opposed the Red Army, which was the Bolshevik-led communist government seeking to establish a socialist state. The Whites aimed to restore the old order or establish a different form of government, but they lacked unified goals and strong coordination. Their efforts were ultimately unsuccessful, and the Red Army emerged victorious, leading to the creation of the Soviet Union. The White Army's activities were marked by internal divisions, foreign interventions, and brutal conflict.
