History: the events of 1920

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the tumultuous period from 1920 to 2020 in Russia, the book explores the aftermath of foreign military interventions and civil war that hindered the Soviet republic's ambitions for socialism. It highlights the dire economic conditions following World War I and the subsequent civil war, with industry and agriculture in ruins. Key historical figures and events, such as Friedrich Engels' bicentennial and the Basmachi movement, are examined within the context of the Gilyan Soviet Republic and the significance of Orenburg as a regional capital.
