Campaigns

• Failure of the Political Seizure of the UNR in Kyiv (November – December 1917)
• Soviet-Ukrainian War: First Invasion and the Puppet Government (December 1917 - April 1918)

  Thus began the Soviet-Ukrainian War (1917-1921): Soviet Russia passed off the invasion by its own troops as an internal civil war

• Artificial Separatism and the Dismemberment of Territories (January – March 1918)

  To this end, a separate separatist entity (the Donetsk–Kryvyi Rih Soviet Republic) was artificially constructed on the territory of the Donbas and the Kryvyi Rih region, with the aim of directly subordinating these lands to the central Russian authorities, bypassing the UNR

• Soviet-Ukrainian War: Third Invasion and the Final Soviet Occupation (December 1919 - November 1921)
• Institutional Absorption through a "Military-Political Union" (1919–1921)
• Legal Absorption through the Creation of the USSR (1922–1924)

Procedures

• Failure of the Political Seizure of the UNR in Kyiv (November – December 1917) — technique Support for a Controlled Opposition

  Use by the Council of People's Commissars of local Bolshevik cells as a legal political force that was to speak on behalf of the Ukrainian proletariat against the Central Rada

• Soviet-Ukrainian War: First Invasion and the Puppet Government (December 1917 - April 1918) — technique Sham Expression of Popular Will

  The historian Larysa Yakubova notes: there were "almost no" peasant delegates, and Soviet historiography later scrubbed the qualifier "with the participation of peasant deputies" from the congress's name

  The assembly declared itself the All-Ukrainian Congress of Soviets and proclaimed the creation of a Soviet - "supposedly truly people's" - Ukrainian People's Republic

• Artificial Separatism and the Dismemberment of Territories (January – March 1918) — technique Administrative-Territorial Division

  An attempt at the bureaucratic resubordination of territories — declaring the Donbas an autonomous part directly linked to Russia, bypassing any Ukrainian authorities

• Soviet-Ukrainian War: Second Invasion and Resource Depletion (1919) — technique Military Intervention

  the next day, Sunday, August 31, Kravs scheduled a ceremonial parade of the Ukrainian troops on Khreshchatyk with the participation of Symon Petliura, head of the UNR Directory

  The day after the Ukrainian armies entered the capital, Kyiv was also occupied by Denikin's troops under General Bredov, who forced the Ukrainian units out

  The events of August 31, 1919 became known as the "Kyiv catastrophe"

  A catastrophe this day was for the Ukrainian armies and for the statehood of the UNR: they lost the capital, taken the day before, within a single day; the armed clash on Duma Square left dead and wounded, and several hundred men were taken prisoner

• Soviet-Ukrainian War: Third Invasion and the Final Soviet Occupation (December 1919 - November 1921) — technique Killing of Prisoners and Detainees

• Institutional Absorption through a "Military-Political Union" (1919–1921) — technique Collusion with a Third Party Behind the People's Back

  The signing of the Treaty of Riga in March 1921: a backroom division of spheres of influence and Ukrainian territories with Poland behind the back of the Ukrainian people, legalized through the formal participation of the puppet Ukrainian SSR

• Legal Absorption through the Creation of the USSR (1922–1924) — technique Sham Treaties

  Use of the Treaty on the Creation of the USSR (December 1922) to formally declare a union of equal republics, masking the final centralization of power in Moscow
