TheRevolutionary Military Council (Russian:Революционный Военный Совет,romanized: Revolyutsionny Voyenny Sovyet,lit. 'Revolutionary Military Council'), sometimes called theRevolutionary War Council^[1] orRevvoyensoviet (Реввоенсовет), was the supreme military authority ofSoviet Russia and later theSoviet Union. It was instituted on September 2, 1918, by decree of theAll-Russian Central Executive Committee (VTsIK), known as the "Decree Declaring the Soviet Republic Military Camp".

Prior toRevvoyensoviet, the two main military authorities had been theSupreme Military Council (Высший военный совет,Vysshy voyenny sovyet) and the operations division of thePeople's Commissariat on War and Navy Affairs.

The decree put allfronts and military organizations under the command of the chairman ofRevvoyensoviet, with acommander-in-chief second-in-line to the chairman to lead strategic and military operations stateside. The chairman was appointed by VTsIK on to serve asPeople's Commissar (ornarkom) of War and Navy Affairs.

The first chairman ofRevvoyensoviet wasLeon Trotsky, with formerLatvian Rifleman officer Jukums Vācietis as his commander-in-chief. Vācietis was replaced in July 1919 bySergei Kamenev who served until 1924.

On November 30, 1918, theCouncil of Labour and Defense was created with the goal of mobilizing the country's resources towards defense. Headed byLenin, the council consisted of thepremier (Lenin), the chairman ofRevvoyensoviet (Trotsky), a representative of VTsIK (Joseph Stalin), and severalnarkoms.

Revvoyensoviet was dissolved under the Soviet Union in 1934.
