In August 1918 bolshevik russia lost the Battle of Lake Baikal to the Czechoslovak Legion. Czechoslovakia proclaimed independence only on 28th October 1918. And as a bonus: the legion did that using captured russian ships.

Britisches Freikorps was quite a shitshow but it did exist.

Reminder that russia managed to lose a naval battle to a country that didn't exist yet.

You are not wrong, but unfortunately and quite surprisingly there is many here in Czechia who would like Ukraine to take such deal. And their parties are now polling much higher for the elections next year.

Probably not, but it doesn't hurt to call them out nevertheless.

Yes, but he is wrong. This is not USSR and the demographics are way different.

You are discussing on a platform created by a man who praises people like Lenin & Castro. Richard Stallman resigned over some comments on Epstein victims. Free software is like that sometimes.

Yes, but there USA were fighting the locals. Here it's moskals who is fighting the locals.

And funny you bring up Afghanistan, USSR went down also because of invading it.

Moskals can't afford to wage the war for three more years.

 

Czech police stopped a Russian tennis player from entering the country ahead of the WTA Prague Open tournament, organisers said on Friday, as a new government resolution banning athletes from Russia or Belarus caused the event to scratch other competitors.

Let's start this community with something positive:

Game publisher THQNordic released a trailer for a game developed by Ashborne Games from Brno. In this RTS and management game you will command one of the trains of the Czechoslovak legion on its way to Vladivostok.

The developers cited games like UFO/XCOM as one of the sources of inspiration for the gameplay. As somebody who enjoyed these, CoH2 and also Bluebyte's Historyline:1914-1918 I will be looking forward to the release.

Not to mention that this is a good way to remember family history as my ancestors were a part of the legion.

How about you?
