==History==
===Soviet Polish Socialist Republic of Councils===
The Soviet Polish Socialist Republic of Councils was established by Polish members of the Russian Bolshevik party on 24 July 1920 as the Provisional Polish Revolutionary Committee (Polish: Tymczasowy Komitet Rewolucyjny Polski, Polrewkom; Russian: Польревком) in Smolensk. It was chaired by Julian Marchlewski, while Felix Dzerzhinsky also held a great deal of influence in the committee. The goal was to provide administration of the Polish areas captured during the Polish-Soviet War, with the intention of transferring power to the Communist Workers’ Party of Poland (Komunistyczna Partia Robotnicza Polski, KPRP) after the war. It was relocated to Białystok by 30 July. It set up its headquarters in the Branicki Palace, and received over 2 billion rubles from the Russian SFSR.
Polrewkom was responsible for the northwestern front of the Polish-Soviet War.
===Galician Soviet Socialist Republic===
The Galician Soviet Socialist Republic was established on 15 July 1920 by the declaration of the Galician Revolutionary Committee (Halrevkom), which had been founded in 8 July in Kiev under the auspices of the Communist Party of Ukraine. It was led by Volodymyr Zatonsky. It relocated to Tarnopol on 1 August, and then to Lwów on 4 September, shortly after the fall of both Lwów and Warsaw.
Halrevkom was responsible for the southwestern front of the Polish-Soviet War.
