Russia entered the Great War with the largest army in the world. She had 1,400,000 soldiers; when fully mobilized, the Russian army increased to over 5,000,000 soldiers. However, Russia could not arm all her soldiers, having a supply of 4.6 million rifles.
Started when Russia invaded East Prussia. Russia made a mistake by attacking Germany and Austria Hungary at the same time.
