If the previous world situation was basically stable, then the Greco-Turkish war seemed to have toppled the dominoes, instantly detonating the world situation and causing various crises to erupt in this already unpeaceful era.

The protagonists of this crisis are all the countries of the world, but the crisis is large or small, and some countries are not worth mentioning compared to the overall world situation.

First of all, Russia.

With the launch of the summer offensive, the situation in Russia was also turned around in an instant.

In the long run, Britain and France still hoped that Tsarist Russia would win the war. However, due to their own selfishness, there was a big gap between the victory hoped for by Britain and France and the victory hoped by Tsarist Russia.

Because of careful preparations, the multinational coalition composed of the Tsarist Russian army, the Polish army, the World Alliance Intervention Coalition and the Lithuanian army carried out a great encirclement of Soviet Russia, and put the focus of the attack on Ukraine.

The strategy of the World Alliance's intervention in the Allied Command was already obvious, which was to focus on eliminating the areas where Soviet Russia could communicate with the outside world, and to turn Soviet Russia into a hidden danger within Russia, rather than a worldwide crisis.

Through a map of Russia, it can be seen that the current direction of the attack of the multinational coalition is Ukraine.

If Ukraine were lost, Soviet Russia would be largely surrounded by Tsarist Russia, as it had been a few years ago, surrounded by hostile countries like Poland.

In this way, Britain and France did not have to worry about the threat posed to them by Soviet Russia, and the Russian civil war in such a situation was a manageable event that could bring great benefits to other countries, not a crisis.

This has also led to a rather special phenomenon, the offensive target of the multinational coalition has never been in Moscow, and it has always been several important cities in Ukraine.

Of course, there are still some differences in the implementation of specific strategies. Poland, for example, is interested in the three Baltic states, has liberated Lithuania and is advancing towards Latvia and Estonia.

The ambitions of the Poles had already begun to manifest themselves, and after taking control of Lithuania, Poland also became interested in other Baltic states, and seemed to have an impulse to form a Baltic Federation.

Tsarist Russia naturally did not want to see Poland completely occupy the Baltic states, after all, the Russian capital St. Petersburg was not far from the Baltic states, and this was supposed to be the territory of the Tsar, not something that those stupid Poles could covet.

Under the orders of Nicholas II, a Russian army group was also advancing towards the three Baltic states, also aiming to recover Estonia and Latvia, and to advance the Line of Control to the Lithuanian border, seeking an opportunity to recover Lithuania at any time.

To the south, the intervention forces of the World League landed in Ukraine and, together with some Polish and Russian troops, attempted to eliminate the Soviet Ukrainian state in a short period of time.

In order to save Ukraine and avoid the destruction of Soviet power, Soviet Russia has deployed heavy troops in the Ukrainian regions and is putting up resistance with all its might.

But this time the World Alliance intervention force can be regarded as an all-out response, and it is not easy to say whether Soviet Russia can survive this time, at least Ukraine is already in danger for now.

The British have also been having a headache lately, and the Irish question has now become a big problem affecting British rule, and the slightest carelessness can ignite the situation in Britain at any time.

As we all know, the full name of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland is the union of the Kingdom of Great Britain and the Kingdom of Ireland.

But in fact, the Irish in the Kingdom of Ireland did not have a high status in the British Empire, and even were excluded everywhere, which is why the Irish always wanted independence.

There is no need to dwell on the intricacies of the relationship between Ireland and England, the most important thing is that the British recruited Irish to the front line in World War I, and there was no good pension system and compensation for these Irish soldiers, which also made a large number of Irish people who returned home from the army dissatisfied.

The Irish soldiers returned home to find that not only did their years of soldierhood not bring them any honour or extra income, but they also had to bear higher taxes.

This is just ordinary people, if it is those soldiers who are disabled in the war and have no source of income, their fate will be even more miserable, and the destruction of their families is often their end.

Under such circumstances, the situation in Ireland has been unstable since the end of the war, like a dry explosive can, which will be detonated at the slightest spark.

It is clear that the situation in Britain is full of Mars, and it is impossible for this tank of explosives in Ireland not to be ignited.

On August 11, 1920, a very ordinary football match was held in Dublin, the capital of Ireland.

Originally, there was nothing to say, but somehow, some of the marchers against the British government entered the football stadium, causing riots in the game.

The police from the United Kingdom, not knowing what their brains were thinking, chose the most inappropriate way, which was to open fire on the demonstrators, resulting in the death of two people in the crowd, four injuries, and two spectators by mistake.

The blind firing of the British police has made the chaotic situation inside the football stadium even more terrifying.

The angry Irish crowd rushed forward and killed two police officers who were present as the police exchanged ammunition.

And that's not all, as the blind actions of the British police led to more Irish people joining the march and Sinn Féin against British government rule.

Sinn Féin was founded in 1905 by Arthur Griffiths, the former President of the Republic of Ireland, to advocate the use of force to establish an all-Irish Republic.

After this incident, Sinn Féin and the IRA's armed force group became more and more violent, and Ireland's desire to rebel against the British government became stronger.

On 12 August, without any reaction from the British government, Ireland unilaterally declared an independent Irish Parliament and declared Ireland formally independent.

The Irish Parliament cooperated with the IRA, and the Parliament announced that the IRA would act as the official army of the Republic of Ireland to wage war against the British government and recover all of Ireland.

On 13 August, the situation intensified.

The Peace Army, led by Dan Boleyn, kidnapped several members of the Royal Irish Security Corps and tortured them to confess to the Gary explosives deposit in their custody.

The soldiers of the Royal Irish Security Corps refused to confess, and in the end, the angry Republican soldiers directly executed several of them, and the Irish War of Independence officially began.

Seeing that the situation in Ireland was out of control, the British government hurriedly stood up, condemned the torture and killing of British soldiers by the Irish Republican Army, and announced that it would suppress the rebellion in Ireland by force.

By this time, however, the Irish Parliament had publicly declared the 1916 Declaration of Independence to mark the founding of Ireland and declared the whole of Ireland under a state of martial law.

The Irish Parliament held a press conference in which it stated that British rule in Ireland was illegal and contrary to the interests of the Irish and the right to Irish independence.

The Irish Parliament demanded the immediate withdrawal of all British troops from Ireland, and called on "all free nations of the world" to recognize Ireland's independence, condemning the British Empire's encroachment on the independent status of other countries.

Now it's okay, eating melons and eating themselves, the British government is furious, and even George V, who has not appeared for a long time, has expressed his opinion and wants to resolutely suppress Ireland by force.

As the most powerful country in the world, Britain has a rebellion of this magnitude on its own soil, which has made almost all countries look at British jokes.

The melon-eating masses were led by France and the United States, and although the Americans were also facing the war of independence in the Philippines, this did not prevent the Americans from laughing at the British at this time.

The chaos in Britain relieved Soviet Russia, after all, the main forces of the world alliance were provided by the British, and the commander-in-chief was also British.

Even if the intervention troops were not withdrawn, the attention of the British would have been much more distracted, and it would have given the Soviet troops at the front a breather.

Arthur did not say anything about the Irish War of Independence, after all, the British Empire was still its ally, and it was impossible to ridicule it head-on.

However, Arthur was able to ensure that the British were supportive of him and avoided the further development of the Philippine Revolutionary War, and the British were busy putting out the fire and abandoned their support for Australasian operations in the Philippines.

The so-called Irish War of Independence, to put it bluntly, was that the armed forces of some political parties in Ireland launched various and unexpected attacks on the property of the British government, undermined the rule of the British government in Ireland, and obtained some weapons and funds at the same time.

At this time, the actions of the Irish army were still relatively despicable, and the assassinations and persecutions of high-ranking government officials, and even the brutal massacre, could be seen in this Irish War of Independence.

But this kind of thing cannot be said who is right and who is wrong, after all, British rule in Ireland is not honorable, and neither of the two families has to laugh at anyone.

The first person to be reported and attract the world's attention was John Milling, Ireland's magistrate.

John Milling was a pure Englishman, and after the outbreak of the Irish Revolutionary War, he was targeted by some extremists of the Republican Army, and led his subordinates to visit John Milling's residence late at night, and abused and shot the British sheriff in front of his family.

Of course, it's not about who is right and who is wrong. Because John Milling's reputation in Ireland is not very good, because of the British superiority over the Irish, John Milling committed a wide range of atrocities in Ireland, arbitrarily arresting and even shooting the Irish marchers, so that the news of John Milling's execution was welcomed by the Irish, and even celebrated with a crown.
