  • The Revolutionary Insurgent Army of Ukraine, also known as the Makhnovtsi or the Revolutionary Insurgent Army of Ukraine, was a anarchist army active during the Russian Civil War from 1918 to 1921. The army was led by Nestor Makhno, a Ukrainian peasant and anarchist who advocated for a society based on free association and mutual aid.
    Makhno and his followers fought against various forces during the war, including the Red Army, the White Army, and various nationalist and anti-Semitic groups. The Makhnovshchina was initially aligned with the Bolsheviks, but later broke with them over disagreements about the role of the state and the suppression of individual liberties.
    Under Makhno's leadership, the Makhnovshchina controlled a large swath of territory in southeastern Ukraine, which they organized into a network of communes and councils. The army practiced direct democracy and collective decision-making, and rejected the authority of any central government. Despite their successes on the battlefield and their popular support among the peasantry, the Makhnovshchina ultimately faced defeat by the Red Army in 1921. Makhno fled to Romania and then to Paris, where he lived in exile until his death in 1934.

      "Розмова" ("Пане Петлюро...") - пісня про отамана Петлюру і військо УНР
      "Славний батько наш Петлюра" - пісня 24 стрілецького куреня армії УНР
      Пісня про Тютюнника / Song about Tiutiunnyk (Юрій Тютюнник)
      Here are some good ones you can look up on youtube, and that period also created some classics that are sung to this day, like Chervona Kalyna (red viburnum), and the national anthem of Ukraine.

    Makhno was indeed a fascinating figure. While he was charging all over the Ukraine fighting Reds, Whites and Greens, I’ve never come across an account of life under the Makhnovischina controlled areas. These “communes” referred to were basically land appropriated from large land owners. I don’t think that any substantial collectivisation occurred as happened later in Aragon and Catalonia in the Spanish Civil War.

    After watching this video, it’s interesting to hear about the anarchist faction of this civil, which was rarely mentioned because we mostly pay attention to Soviet reds against the anti-communist whites.
    Overall, as a Chinese who also studied our own modern civil war(KMT vs CPC), our civil war are also as complex as the Russian Civil war, with the main groups fighting to form a communist nation, group fighting to form a none communist nation and groups who wants regional independence. However unlike the Russian Civil War, which is about fighting for ideology, the Chinese Civil War is mostly about power struggles and to see who can rule Beijing/all of China under their one rule. Because in the early stage it’s about the Communist, Nationalist, many different warlord fighting one another plus regional separatists like Tibet and Xinjiang wanting to gain independence. Then in the later stages, it’s all the warlord siding with the Nationalists, against the Communists, and the regional separatists being themselves.

    An extra thanks for this episode. This is such an obscure topic, even to those who study the Russian Civil War. Makhno was doomed from the start, really. Neither the Reds nor Whites would have tolerated him when the war was finished., and he certainly wasn't going to win the war on his own. He was a useful person to both sides at different times, but in the end, a vainglorious attempt at... who knows what, really. I've read multiple times that was stopped the White's offensive at Moscow was Makhno's taking Ekaterinoslav , as that's where the Whites kept most of their artillery supplies and other munitions. Anyway, was the Ding Dong at 7:18 the signal for the White forces to go to Ekaterinoslav and defect? Just wondering. Take it easy.

    some of the Green forces, since Black army was shown here:
    Green 'Republics'
    At first "Greens" was the name of troops who hid in the woods (in the northern Caucasus and Crimean peninsula) and consisted of persons who had avoided mobilization into the army or deserters from both "Red" and "White" armies. At first "Greens" were non-political and made previously diversionary raids with different "Green" detachments supported various Communist (red), anti-Communist (white), anarchist (black) or nationalist movements.
    .
    The largest Green Army existed in Black sea coast of Caucasus was the [pro-Communist] Kubano-Black Sea Red-Green Army (est. 15,000 persons) that resisted Denikin's Russian Volunteer Army in the summer of 1919 on the territory between Anapa and Adler. This Army and had no central commander and consisted of separate troops. In the winter of 1920 there were forces
    under the Green 'Soviet' Army between Anapa and Tuapse (under commandant P.M. Morits) and Black Sea Peasants' Militia (between Sochi and Adler) that merged in Mar 1920 to form Red Army of Black Sea Land (est. 12,000 persons, under commandant Ye.S. Kazanskiy); it joined together with the "Red" Army to destroy Denikin's forces in the northern Caucasus.
    .
    pro-Communist "Green" (called "Red-Green") partisan troops in Crimea merged in Aug 1920 into the Rebel Army of Crimea (under commandant A.V. Mokrousov) and joined together with "Red" Army against Vrangel's (Wrangel) "White" forces.
    .
    Some "Greens" joined the "White" movement, these were often called "White-Greens." The best known of these forces was the Army for Revival of Russia (in 1920 under command of General Fostikov) in the northern Caucasus.
    .
    And there was the Green Ukraine = Cossacks migrants from Ukraine in Far Siberia/trans-Amur formed the republic of Green Ukraine trying to unite with Ukraine also but failed from June 1917 to January 1918, when it merged (although its congress stayed until 1922) into the Far Eastern Repubic/Chita Repubic under the White army of Kolchak until Oct 25, 1922.
    .
    By mid-1920 nearly all the "Green" forces were dissolved, with some becoming part of Red Army.
    The Russian civil war was rather multicolored, beside the White, the Reds, The Black army, the Greens, there were also the Grey, Yellow and Raspberry [Ukraine]!

    We can almost take it for granted that Nestor, were he alive today, would be as equally disdainful of Ukrainian as he would be of Russian nationalism. A true
    Internationalist,and foe of all and any nation-states that flog the exhausted old nag of ‘ Die for the motherland…. ‘ , off he’d go into exile again,..perhaps being pressured to bow to, or grovel before, a statue of Bandera prior to being expelled.

      Grey Ukraine = Cosssacks migrants from Ukraine around the area of Omsk/north Kazakhstan. These did form political group Main Ukrainian Council of Siberia July 1917 which often changed name/joined others such as Provisional Siberian Government and New Provisional Siberian Government then the Provisional All-Russian Government until some cossacks led a coup which resulted in Kolchak and the White army taking charge.
      .

      "Simple nation-states are more stable and productive" - on the contrary, simple nation-states are not viable at all, these are ethnic bantustans. The economy of these national pseudo-states is the sale of natural resources and cheap labor.
      States created nations, not the other way around.

    The black movement in Ukraine has intrigued me since I first heard of it. Firstly, because in spite of being the most revolutionary of the political movements, it was very tame and conservative which led to it being stable. Secondly , it is actually worked. Which baffled me as a third positionist statist(fascist for short). And kastly because their military was one of the most competent of the time. All signs of a successful state yet they were anti-statists, it is very interesting and I have a great deal of respect for them because of it.

    Makhno was a great guerrilla commander but a political illiterate who was unable to devise à long-term strategy. As his fellow anarchists during the Spanish civil war they ended up being the allies of the reactionaries. In fact, many of the veterans of the black army ended up fighting along side the banderistas and the nazis.
