The main cause of this war can be attributed to the fall of the democratic Hungarian government to the socialists under Bela Kun on February 7, 1919. In the weeks that followed, Bela Kun established his brand of socialism, dividing up the land among the peasants, among other things. The Russian government started to get worried. A socialist nation right on the border with Russia could provoke the peasants in Russia to revolt against the Monarchy. They began preparing to take preventive measures against the Kun government in Hungary. Divisions that were going to be released back to civilian life were called to the Hungarian border, and supplies were stockpiled along the roads toward Hungary.

abstract
| - The main cause of this war can be attributed to the fall of the democratic Hungarian government to the socialists under Bela Kun on February 7, 1919. In the weeks that followed, Bela Kun established his brand of socialism, dividing up the land among the peasants, among other things. The Russian government started to get worried. A socialist nation right on the border with Russia could provoke the peasants in Russia to revolt against the Monarchy. They began preparing to take preventive measures against the Kun government in Hungary. Divisions that were going to be released back to civilian life were called to the Hungarian border, and supplies were stockpiled along the roads toward Hungary. The Hungarians saw this and began to set up defensive lines on the Russia border. There was mass conscription, and the Kun government began stockpiling their own supplies for a long struggle. They also contacted some of their people in Russia and authorised them to begin plans for staging peasant uprisings against the Monarchy. These men would mostly be stuck by themselves, as the Kun government would be otherwise occupied by the war with Russia.
