Istoria Armatei Roșii: cum a apărut „Armata muncitorilor și țăranilor“

The Red Army, officially known as the "Red Army of Workers and Peasants," was established in January 1918 by Lenin's regime. This name symbolized a break from the Tsarist past and aimed to promote the idea of popular democracy. The Red Army fought against the White Armies representing the old regime, solidifying its place in history. Despite its dissolution in February 1946, the term "Red Army" remains relevant today, as the current Russian military often invokes communist symbols linked to its Bolshevik heritage. Military historian Andrei Pogăciaș narrates the story of the Red Army from its inception to its disbandment.
