Alash Orda was a Kazakh reformist movement and not represented Kyrgyz people (modern Kyrgyzstan). It is a common mistake because Russian ethnographers used to call modern Kazakhs as Kirgiz and modern Kyrgyz as a Kara Kirgiz or Black Kirgiz.

Enver Pasha cameo

A small and interesting addition. At the initial stage of the war in Central Asia (1918-1919), thousands of German and Hungarian (but more Hungarians) POWs fought on the Bolsheviks side. There were large POW camps in Central Asia and Siberia. After the revolution, a significant part of them will support the Bolsheviks. In some battles, the share of Hungarians and Germans reached 40-70% of the Red troops.

@forthrightgambitia1032

@C J that's the same word as the current name, just one transcribed into the Latin alphabet from Russian and the modern version transcribed from Kyrgyz. The city was named after a fortress around which the city grew that was created by the central Asian warlord the Khan of Kokand in 1825 but in European languages it was known through Russian sources. The fortress was destroyed when Russia turned the Khanate into a vassal state and later annexed it in the 1860's/1870's but the relatively young city remained and became more important than before when the Soviets made it capital of the Kyrgyz SSR - because it was new it was easier to fill with bureaucrats unlike traditional centres of power like Samarkand or Kokand. It was a military backwater in the Tsarist empire.

The really impressive thing about this is that many of the photos, esp. in the first part of the video, are _not_ colourised. They are the work of Sergey Prokudin-Gorsky who experimented with colour photography very early on and travelled the Russian Empire extensively between 1909 and 1915, documenting life, landscape, and people of the Empire in actual colour photography.

I realize that the guerilla warfare or "bands" did not only exist in South Anatolia and northern Syria in 1920 but also in Central Asia; then I think that "excluding Muslims all together" (9:10) is a big, silly and terrible mistake; the "Jadid" movement is a very interesting socio-political phenomenon; Mikhaïl Frunze seems to be an outstanding general (but am I the only one to think that his name sounds German a little bit?); Enver Pasha refuses to die politically, so he goes to try his chance in another country; last, the colored photographs are simply stunning.

Mikhail Frunze was of Romanian origin, but he was born in Central Asia. His father was a military paramedic in the Russian army. Paradoxically, Frunze had no military experience before the start of the civil war. He was engaged in revolutionary activities from 1905-1917.

To be more precise, Frunze's father was a Moldovan, Vasily Mikhailovich Frunze, para-medic (feldsher), who was in military service in Pishpek (old name of Bishkek, today's capital of Kyrgyzstan) and his mother was Russian, Marfa Efimovna Bochkarevskaya-Spasomiklaukhovskaya (or just Bochkarova). Mikhail Frunze was born in Bishkek, so after the civil war from 1926 until the collapse of the USSR in 1991, this city was named in his honor.

This is an amazing video

12:35 the Emir of Bukhara was a monster. Given the events, the Bolsheviks were the best option. The only party that actually incorporated everyone. The Jadids lost the struggle to control it, but didn't get all slaughtered the way the other groups settled things. Mikhail Frunze seems like a much wiser leader than anyone else available. His reconciliation with the Jadids speaks to that. Bukhara was an architectural wonder, it was a shame to do so much damage to it.

Well, speaking from Textbooks, Emir was first supported by Jadids for his revolutionary steps in the country and when Jadids made a meeting in support of that, Emir will see it as a revolt without really knowing and this is how the conflict arises between them. Emir says in his diary he tried to save the country and develop it but had no chance given the circumstances and explains his situation. Mikhail Frunze only did this in order to capture Turkestan, Jadids were still treated harshly by Soviet government which is technically Russian government. He didn't speak about the places how Soveit Union was for us and if he did, I bet anyone would be praying to have an Emir back even with worse conditions ...

You can guestimate the size of the conflict by the time the modern train crosses the territory. It takes 3.5 days from the city of Dushanbe (modern capital of Tajikistan, mentioned in this video) to reach the Volga river (nowadays Russian territory). After that it is only one day travel to Moskow. The land was scarcely populated, but the civil war toll was high, as almost 50% of population had perished. A person, whose father fought alongside with Frunze on the Soviets side, once described it as a bloody bath: "(we) simply wiped out entire villages including wimen and children, to cut support and supply to the basmachi guerillas". It is estimated that the civil war took lives of 2 mil of kazakh alone. On the other hand, without the Soviets invasion, the Central Asia would likely to remain nomadic, similar to a nowadays Afghanistan (which was then also partly a Bukhara emirate).

Finally!

I should metion about Mirsaid Sultan-Galiyev (1892-1940). His claim was Red army purposly didnt crash Basmachi revolt because blaming somebody as Basmachi was easiest way to eliminate Muslim or Turkic rooted Soviet Politicians. In Turkish language his all writings and memoirs published as a collection but i dont know its avaible in other languages too (ISBN: 9789756288795 ). In there youll can read his hopes about revoliton as a socialist turnet to a growing fear to elimination of all non-slav politicians from Soviet System. In his memories he mentions about "soviets calling muslim forces when a rebellion or clash happens but when taking any political decition they are forgetting our presence" (Galiyev himself was an atheist but he thinked Islamic-Socialist rethoric have a potential for socialist revolutions in colonies of europian powers). He was a very influencial Tatar Communist (possibly most influencial Muslim / Turkic person in Soviets in his time, some people claming he was the 4rth most powerful person in USSR after Trotsky) who had very interesting ideas. He was defended old Imperial powers of europe never be true socialists and we will never see a socialist state or revolution in industrilized europe. Also Russians are old opressors and a system builded by them only will repeat history. He prophesies all socialist revolutions of future will be happen in colonized terratories of Asia and Africa . Real class struggle is between imperial nations and colony nations because for example British Workers have economic benefits from British presence in India. He was also strongly opposed divided Turkestan and yelled to Stalin in an congress as "Please dont mess with destinies of nations comrade Stalin". His biggest fear was a Stalinist regime and when it happen he sented a camp and eventurally killed with most of his comrades. We can describe His dreams as an kind a independent "United Soviet Socialist Turan Republic" and "International of Colonized or Opressed Peoples". For this aspect i thing its very similar to Tito's 3rd World and Arab Baathist ideology
