Baltic Wars of Independence

The Baltic Wars of Independence were a multi-party conflict that occurred in the Baltic region as a result of the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk and the Russian Revolutions of 1917. The three major factions were the Pro-German Livonians and Lithuanians, the native Latvians and Estonians, and the Baltic communists supported by the Russian Bolsheviks. In addition, anti-Bolshevik governments such as the United Kingdom and the Russian White Movement supported opposition against the Russian Soviet government and the Baltic communists.
