Civil War. With peace established with Germany, the war continued within the boundaries of Russia. As Lenin attempted to gain control over the whole country, forces loyal to the Tsar or that were anti-communist gathered strength to oppose him. This created a three-year civil war over control of the Russian state. The forces led by Lenin and the Bolsheviks were called the Reds, (red has been the color of revolution since the French Revolution) while forces opposed to him where termed White (white has traditionally been the color of royalty).
Shrimp Cocktail Recipe: * If your shrimp are frozen, thaw overnight in the bag in the refrigerator, or remove shrimp from bag, thaw in a colander or strainer under cold running water for about three minutes. Use immediately.
This method takes about 15 minutes, depending on the size of the shrimp. Save the microwave defrost setting for shrimp you plan to cook shortly after thawing. Use your machineâs defrost cycle and only thaw until the shrimp is bendable â but still quite cold and icy.
