Other C20 : Red Horde 1920 Red Horde 1920 Post WWI clash between Polish forces and the Red Army. Rating: Not Rated Yet Price Price £34.95 Ask a question about this product ManufacturerTiny Battle Publishing Description In 1919, the governments of the victorious Allied powers met in Paris to discuss the post-war order of things. But while they were talking, history continued to move. As the rest of Russia descended into civil war, forces of the Red Army moved westward to exploit the power vacuum left by the retreating German armies. They were met by units of the new Polish Army, who pushed them back steadily into what is now Belarus. After the Polish overextended their forces in an offensive to take Kiev in early 1920, the greatly reinforced Red Army went over to the attack. General Mikhail Tukhachevsky’s Order of the Day for July 2, 1920 read in part "To the West! Over the corpse of White Poland lies the road to worldwide conflagration. March on Vilno, Minsk, Warsaw!” As the new nation of Poland fought for its life and the front lines surged back and forth, both sides grew increasingly desperate. The war climaxed in the Battle of Warsaw in mid-August, as the Poles finally broke the Red Army and flung it back into Russia in disorder – to this day they refer to it as “the Miracle on the Vistula”. 1 / 2 Other C20 : Red Horde 1920 Red Horde 1920 is an operational-level game on the action during this fateful summer. The Red Army smashes forward in the name of the Revolution, with masses of rifle divisions and the savage 1st Cavalry Army, commanded by Semyon Budyonny and filled with fierce Cossacks. The Poles resist with units of the Polish Legion, veterans of the fighting in France, and their national army. Ukrainians, Lithuanians, Hungarians and even a unit of Red Polish renegades swirl in and out of the chaos too. Designer Brian Train has substantially revised and streamlined his original 2007 design (entitled Konarmiya Year of the Red Tide), incorporating a newly-researched and more accurate order of battle with revised counter values, updated rules and a drastically revised map with a different scale. Saddle up, comrades! Glory waits down the road! Includes: 176 counters, showing Polish, Soviet and foreign volunteer forces at brigade to division scale. 1 22x17-inch map of eastern Poland and western Byelorussia, ground scale 20 miles per hex. 1 rulebook, typeset for easy squinting. 1 Player Aid Card to stare at while the other guy hogs the rulebook. An anachronistic Ziploc bag to keep the counters in one cat-proof location. You’ll also need to provide two six-sided dice for the Cause.

The text is also available in French and Russian (see attached pdf files). The Battle of Warsaw was one of the most important moments of the Polish-Bolshevik war, one of the most decisive events in the history of Poland, Europe and the entire world. However, excluding Poland, this fact is almost completely unknown to the citizens of European countries. This phenomenon was noticed a decade after the battle had taken place by a British diplomat, Lord Edgar Vincent d’Abernon, a direct witness of the events. In his book of 1931 “The Eighteenth Decisive Battle of the World: Warsaw, 1920”, he claimed that in the contemporary history of civilisation there are, in fact, few events of greater importance than the Battle of Warsaw of 1920. There is also no other which has been more overlooked. To better understand the origin and importance of the battle of Warsaw, one needs to become acquainted with a short summary of the Polish-Bolshevik war and, first and foremost, to get to know the goals of both fighting sides. We ought to start with stating the obvious, namely, that the Bolshevik regime, led by Vladimir Lenin, was, from the very beginning, focused on expansion. Prof. Richard Pipes, a prolific American historian, stated: “the Bolsheviks took power not to change Russia, but to use it as a trampoline for world revolution”.

The Civil War in Russia, Its Causes and Significance
fA?| THE TRUE STORY OF THE RUSSIAN REVOLUTION AND THE BUILDING OF SOCIALISM THE TRUE STORY OF THE RUSSIAN REVOLUTION AND THE BUILDING OF SOCIALISM . The attempt to destroy the workers’ and peasants’ state and the gains of the October Revolution by military force ended in complete failure. The victory in the Civil War made millions of people aware of their strength and of the righteousness of their cause, the cause which they had fought for and had secured by their struggle.

For three years the front lines moved backwards and forwards over the country’s vast territory—from the Baltic Sea to the Pacific Ocean, from the White Sea to the Black Sea and from the Arctic tundra and Siberian taiga forests to the mountain countries and desert lands of Central Asia. The war left the country in ruins, destroyed its productive forces and brought immeasurable human losses. Many years have since passed but interest in these dramatic events is as great as ever.

ARTYKUŁ Battle of Warsaw 1920 Author: MIROSŁAW SZUMIŁO 12.08.2020
Jerzy Kossak's Miracle at the Vistula ARTYKUŁ Battle of Warsaw 1920 Author: MIROSŁAW SZUMIŁO 12.08.2020 The Battle of Warsaw was one of the most important moments of the Polish- Bolshevik war, one of the most decisive event in the history of Poland, Europe and the entire world. However, excluding Poland, this fact is almost completely unknown to the citizens of European countries. It was noticed already in 1931 by a British diplomat, Lord Edgar Vincent d’Abernon, a direct witness of the events who, in his book “The eighteenth decisive battle in the history of the world”, wrote: “The contemporary history of civilisation knows little events of more importance than the Battle of Warsaw in the year 1920. It also knows no other which was more overlooked.” To better understand the origin and importance of the battle of Warsaw, one needs to first present a short summary of the Polish-Bolshevik war and, first and foremost, to describe the goals of both fighting sides. First, we need to state the obvious that the Bolshevik regime, led by Vladimir Lenin, was set for expansion from the beginning. As a prolific American historian, prof. Richard Pipes stated: “the Bolsheviks took power not to change Russia, but to use it as a trampoline for world revolution”. Polish defences with a machine gun position near Miłosna, in the village of Janki, August 1920 The road to Europe opened up when Germany lost the First World War and signed the surrender on November 11th 1918. The German troops then systematically retreated from the occupied lands of Ukraine, Belarus and other Baltic states.

The Rank-And-File Perpetrators of 1932-1933 Famine in Ukraine and Their Representation in Cultural Memory
ʻIdle, Drunk and Good-for-Nothingʼ: The Rank-and-File Perpetrators of 1932-1933 Famine in Ukraine and Their Representation in Cultural Memory Daria Mattingly Robinson College July 2018 This dissertation is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Preface This dissertation is the result of my own work and includes nothing that is the outcome of work done in collaboration. It is not substantially the same as any that I have submitted, or, is being concurrently submitted for a degree or other qualification at the University of Cambridge or any other University or any other University or similar institution except as declared in the Preface and specified in the text. I further state that no substantial part of my dissertation has already been submitted, or, is being concurrently submitted for any such degree, diploma or other qualification at the University of Cambridge or any other University or similar institution except as declared in the Preface and specified in the text. The word count of this dissertation is 77, 082. This falls within the word limit set by the Faculty of Modern and Medieval Languages Degree Committee. Abstract This dissertation examines identifiable traces of the perpetrators of the 1932-1933 famine in Ukraine, known as the Holodomor, and their representation in cultural memory. It shows that the men and women who facilitated the famine on the ground were predominantly ordinary people largely incongruous with the dominant image of the perpetrator in Ukrainian cultural memory. I organise this interdisciplinary study, which draws on a wide range of primary sources, including archival research at all levels – republican, oblast’, district, village and private, published and unpublished memoirs and, on one occasion, an interview with a perpetrator; major corpora of oral memory, post-memory and cultural texts – into two parts.
