Welcome to the Siberian Jungle

I have a story to tell. It is a story of revolution, of war, of American ignorance and of Russian dominance. It is about the Bolshevik's rise to power, and the Russian Empire's ultimate defeat. It begins in a time of world wide conflict and concludes in a time of political turmoil.
The Russian Civil War is every bit a part of political history as it is of Russian history. American hegemony was ever present in the multi-party events, and through this blog I hope to show how and why American intervention effected the events of 1917 through to 1920. This is an analysis of the politics of the Russian Civil War.
