It had been nearly a year and a half since the revolution began, ultimately scaling into a full-blown civil war, before miserably ending in a failed guerilla campaign. The leaders of the Russian revolution, every last one of them, except for Lenin, of course, had been found and executed in the streets.
Not a single trial had been held for them. Meanwhile, the million or so members of the Bolshevik Party and the Red Army had been thoroughly rooted out and destroyed. Those who took up arms against the Tsar and the Russian Empire had miserable ends.
Those who betrayed their comrades and denounced Marxism as a whole had been granted some form of clemency. Though they would never fully be accepted by those who knew they once followed the teachings of Karl Marx.
