Episode 46 – the Russian Civil War: the Creation of the Central Asian Soviet Republics
After Enver Pasha led the Basmachi to their doom, the Bolsheviks turned
their attention towards creating reliably Communist governments in
Central Asia who were loyal to the USSR. The local actors, like the
Jadids, Alash Orda, Young Bukharans, etc, focused on using Bolshevik
capital and military might to create a modern, Islamic government. This
episode explores how both the indigenous and Bolshevik actors fought
with each other for control over ideology the government, the region’s
resources, and the region’s people.
