I don't like this video, because communists wasn't a thing yet. Up to 1928 or so Soviet Union was in state of allowing business and enterprise. Then there was New Economical Policy which was building capitalism, so full capitalism. And only then, when Stalin came to power building of communism was declared (rather, "completing capitalism"). No precise dates from me, sorry, but until 1928 Soviet Union was a freedom fighter state. So, the whole narrative for the animation in this video is just too comical.

Video title: Mentions Czechoslovakia. Czechs and Slovaks viewers: "It`s showtime."

Czech here, few notions, 1. Legions were created from Czechoslovaks minorites that already lived on Russians lands before the war started. POWs were recruited after some time of diplomatic pressure and persuasion after native legions were already established by their combat prowess. Nobody wants to give a gun to captured enemy. 2. Even though there were certainly some desertion going on, it wasn't that big of a deal as we wish it was. More like national legends. Main manpower came from POWs later on as there was about 130k legionaries in Russia, ~80k in France and perhaps ~30k on Italian front, total, on the end of the war. Myths like entire regiments marching to Russians to switch a side are simply legends, as most noted 28th regiment I believe, was simply lost in Russian wilderness and almost decimated, before they found way back to Austrian lines, where there were reorganized and fought in k.u.k. army till war ended. 3. Japanese, Americans and other troops weren't dispatched to Russia to assist Legions, but to intervene into Russian civil war, supporting Whites. 4. Nice video, we certainly kick their asses, possibly stole part of their national treasure, that's why Russian hates us till today and we them thanks to occupation.

This is where Slovaks took a part in creating the Czechoslovak republic. The whole existence of these legions made allies to recognize the newborn state. And in fact, the father of the legions was Milan Rastislav Stefanik. There were three main people standing behind the effort of recognizing the republic. The well-known are Masaryk and Benes. The third one is Stefanik. Masaryk neither Benes had contacts within the allies, It was Stefanik who opened them the door into high diplomatic circles, especially among the French. After the war had broken, He fought for France. He was a pilot because due to his lack of physique and health He could not fight in trenches. And not like today, the planes were considered like something where You had to be like captain america. Against all the odds He became a hell of a fighting pilot.

Please, Can you do part 2? :)

konecne dobre slovanské video pozdrav od trnavy slovensko

You know, this reminds of that Battlefield 2042 trailer tagline. "War is the only way Home." Seeing that the Czechoslovak Legion had to fight their way to Vladivostok to get back home.

We want part 2!!!

There actually are plenty of them but all in national language, and no english dubs.

This is my personal favorite engagement in all of military history, thanks for the analysis on it!

I had heard of the Czechoslovak Legion in USSR, but didn't know the details or why they ended up there. Thanks for the video !

Incredible Video as Always!

i just realised how smal this channel still is, the content is easiely on the same level and somewhat similar to CGP Grey, so i always assumed it to be only a little bit smaller

Good content mate, keep it up

*happy Czech noices*

Wonderful video! Excited for the next part!

I love that slovakia is the angry younger brother who has seen some stuff in the war.

Awesome Video as always

My great grandfather was in the legion

Great as always!

Great video! Your voice has an impact! That's one of the most important things when it comes to telling history. My teacher was also good at this and because of her words having such greater impact it made me fall in love with history. Have a good day

Wow, what an amazing story, i'll wait for the next part

7:33 love the Cuban that snuck in at the front

Excellent Polandball content

"They are going on a trip to a place called" *Oh no* I remember that video.
