Lev Davidovich Bronstein. The Reds finally won. Many millions of Russians died in the fighting; as many from disease; and even more from the starvation and executions that the victorious Reds (Bolsheviks) imposed on the peasantry who opposed the forced selling of the crops at low prices determined by the Communist government. During this period most of the Russian institutions collapsed. Trotsky, a leading Red, later broke with the Reds and went into exile in Mexico where he was murdered on orders of Stalin.
Publius Ovidius Naso, known as Ovid (/ˈɒvɪd/) in the English-speaking world, was a Roman poet who lived during the reign of Augustus. He was a contemporary of the older Virgil and Horace with whom he is often ranked as one of the three canonical poets of Latin literature. The Imperial scholar Quintilian considered him the last of the Latin love elegists. He enjoyed enormous popularity, but, in one of the mysteries of literary history, he was sent by Augustus into exile in a remote province on the Black Sea, where he remained until his death. Ovid himself attributes his exile to carmen et error, "a poem and a mistake", but his discretion in discussing the causes has resulted in much speculation among scholars.
