1919 war eines der revolutionärsten Jahre des 20. Jahrhunderts. In diesem Jahr gab es revolutionäre Aktivitäten in vielen verschiedenen Ländern Europas sowie in Ägypten. Das Chaos nach dem Ersten Weltkrieg, der Fall der Reiche und die Bildung mehrerer neuer Nationen führten zu langwierigen Kämpfen um die politische Macht. In vielen Ländern verstanden Kommunisten und Anarchisten, dass dies der ideale Moment war, um die „Weltrevolution“ zu verwirklichen.
