Red Army invasion of Armenia

The Red Army invasion of Armenia, also known as the Sovietization or Soviet invasion of Armenia, Soviet occupation of Armenia, was a military campaign carried out by the 11th Army of Soviet Russia from September to 29 November 1920 to install a new Soviet government in the First Republic of Armenia, a former territory of the Russian Empire. The invasion coincided with both the concurrent Turkish invasion, as well as the anti-government insurrection staged by the local Armenian Bolsheviks in the capital, Yerevan, and other cities and populated places over the country. The invasion led to the dissolution of the First Republic of Armenia and the establishment of the Armenian Soviet Socialist Republic.
