Newborn Poland, which just gained independence after 123 years of captivity, was its first target. The war started on the 4th of January 1920 when Bolsheviks captured Wilnus. Poles were already engaged against Ukrainians and Czechs and held referendal campaign at Silesia. Weakened with the casualties of the World War I but finally free, Poles were not eager to be slaves again.
