Abstract:

The article discusses the genesis and formation of the Republic of Latvia – from the 1917 February Revolution in the Russian Empire to the settlements of relations with the Bolsheviks and its de iure recognition by the Entente states. Ample space is devoted to the context of this process, the confrontation in the Baltic region, especially in Latvia, between the policy of Bolsheviks, ‘White’ Russians, Germany, Great Britain, and Poland in particular. The text emphasises the importance of the Polish Army’s victory in the war against the Bolsheviks for the stabilisation of Latvia’s internal position. Its substantial part is made up by the reconstruction based on the preserved documents of the formation of Latvian borders, emphasising the dispute over the south-eastern district of Pytalovo (Abrene).
