Detailed explanation-1: -The Red Army represented the Socialist Republic Union of Russia. The White Army represented the pro Tsarists. Although the Whites gained their support from Britain, France, Japan and the USA, the Red Army defeated the White Army and won the civil war by 1920.
Detailed explanation-2: -In short, the Bolsheviks were able to win the Russian Civil War because the Whites failed to secure the support of the different national groups, key foreign powers, and the peasantry, while Bolsheviks enjoyed much more authority within Russia and were therefore able to assert their power over the Whites.
Detailed explanation-3: -The warring factions included the Red and White Armies. The Red Army fought for the Lenin’s Bolshevik government. The White Army represented a large group of loosely allied forces, including monarchists, capitalists and supporters of democratic socialism.
