The Green armies, Green Army (Russian: Зелёная Армия), or Greens (Russian: Зелёные) were armed peasant groups which fought against all governments in the Russian Civil War. They fought to protect their communities from requisitions or reprisals by either side. At times associated with the Socialist-Revolutionary Party, by far the largest grouping of the Russian Constituent Assembly, the Green Armies had – at least tacit – support throughout much of Russia. However, the Green Armies’primary base, the peasantry, were largely reluctant to wage an active campaign during the Russian Civil War.
