Alsace-Lorraine Soviet Republic

The Alsace-Lorraine Soviet Republic (German: Räterepublik Elsaß-Lothringen, French: République Soviétique d'Alsace-Lorraine) was a short-lived revolutionary government established in November 1918 during the closing days of World War I. It emerged during the November Revolution in Germany, a period of widespread political upheaval and social unrest across Central Europe. The movement in Alsace–Lorraine was part of a wave of workers’ and soldiers’ councils that wanted to assert local control as imperial authority collapsed.
