What did the US do when a civil war broke out in Russia?

During the Russian Civil War (1917-1922), the United States intervened by sending troops as part of the Allied intervention, primarily to support the White Army against the Bolsheviks. Approximately 8,000 American soldiers were deployed to northern Russia and Siberia, ostensibly to protect military supplies and assist the Czechoslovak Legion. However, the intervention faced significant challenges and was met with mixed reactions from both American soldiers and the public, ultimately resulting in a withdrawal by 1920. The U.S. did not achieve its objectives, and the Bolsheviks eventually consolidated power, leading to the establishment of the Soviet Union.


Five civilized tribes allied with the Union during civil War?

Generally not. The government in Washington was the same one which had, without variation, uniformly screwed the tribes in each and every treaty, and had forced them onto the Trail of Tears. The only unit east of the Mississippi, north or south, which had organized Indian components was Thomas' Legion of North Carolina. It had four companies of Cherokees from the Eastern Band. In Oklahoma (which then was then the Indian Territories) there was a Civil War within the western band of Cherokees, over which of the white mens' governments to support. Stand Waite of the western Cherokees was the only Native American general in either Army, and he was a Confederate. Individual Indians served in many units, north and south. Eli Parker, a Seneca, was an aide to General Grant, and was present at Appomattox, in the room when Lee signed the surrender. As Lee was leaving he noticed Parker and stopped, and said "I am glad to see a representative of the original Americans here today."

Why did many Americans support the sedition act of the American legion?

Many Americans supported the Sedition Act of the American Legion due to concerns over national security and the desire to maintain unity during a time of perceived external threats, particularly during World War I. The act was seen as a necessary measure to suppress dissent and prevent anti-war sentiments that could undermine the war effort. Additionally, the patriotic fervor prevalent at the time led many to view criticism of the government as un-American, fostering a climate where support for such legislation was widespread.
