May Uprising

The May Uprising (German: Maiaufstand) or the Berlin Uprising (German: Berlineraufstand) was the first engagement of the German Civil War. It took place in the city of Berlin, the capital of Germany.
The uprising took place shortly after the holding of the 2nd German Congress of Workers' and Soldiers' Councils. By that point the country had descended into a state of near-anarchy.
