The Red Army, officially known as the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army, was the military force of the Soviet Union established by the Bolsheviks after the Russian Revolution in 1917. It played a crucial role in the Russian Civil War, ultimately leading to the establishment of Soviet power. The Red Army was characterized by its ideological commitment to communism, its diverse composition, and its significant involvement in World War II, where it was pivotal in defeating Nazi Germany on the Eastern Front. Over time, it evolved into a large and powerful military organization, later known as the Soviet Armed Forces.
