Answer

War Communism was the economic and political system that existed in Soviet Russia during the Russian Civil War, from 1918 to 1921.

It was characterized by:

  • Nationalization of all industry.
  • Forced grain requisitioning from peasants to feed the army and cities.
  • Prohibition of private trade.
  • Centralized control of the economy.

The goal was to supply the Red Army and maintain Bolshevik power, but it led to widespread famine and economic collapse.
