Red Army

n. army of the Former Soviet Union, Soviet Army

For other organizations known as the Red Army, see Red Army (disambiguation). The Red Army (Russian: Рабоче-Крестьянская Красная Армия, Raboche-Krest'yanskaya Krasnaya Armiya; RKKA, full translation the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army) was the armed force first organized by the Bolsheviks during the Russian Civil War in 1918 and that, in 1922, became the army of the Soviet Union. "Red" refers to the blood shed by the working class in its struggle against capitalism. The appellation 'Red' was dropped after World War II, when national symbols replaced those connoting the old revolutionary fervour, and it was officially renamed the Soviet Army. The Red Army eventually grew to form the largest army in history from the 1940s until the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, although China's People's Liberation Army may have exceeded the Red Army in size during some periods.
