The Comintern (Communist International, also known as the Third International) was an international
Communist organization founded in
Moscow in March
1919. The International intended to fight "by all available means, including armed force, for the overthrow of the international bourgeoisie and for the creation of an international Soviet republic as a transition stage to the complete abolition of the State." The Comintern was founded after the dissolution of the
Second International in
1916, following the
1915 Zimmerwald Conference in which
Lenin had led the "
Zimmerwald Left" against those who supported the "
national union" governments in war with each other.
