Foreign military intervention and civil war prevented the implementation of a grand plan to create the material and production base of socialism.

The majority of factories and plants stood, mines and mines were destroyed; the production of large industry in 1920 was almost 7 times less than pre-war; transport was in a catastrophic state.
