A seminar group of the initiative http://redaktion-march25.blogspot.com has a report on the history of the 25th March 1918 provided: In the context of the collapse of the Tsarist empire in the war-winning 1917 and the sluggish advance of the Central Powers was a power vacuum in the so-called "intermediate Europe". At the same time increasing the nascent freedom movement understood this constellation as an opportunity to assert their national independence.
Under the pressure of the growing influence of the Bolsheviks at the end of 1917, Belarusian nationalists began to organize more. At the First Congress in December 1917 Allweißrussischen the right to a sovereign state was formulated. In consequence, the Council of the Republic called on 25 March 1918 German-occupied Belarus in the areas of the Belarusian National Republic as an independent state out.
parallel with these operations were the proceedings of the separate peace between Germany and Soviet Russia at Brest-Litovsk instead. Berlin's concepts of territorial organization in Eastern Europe did not provide independent states between the German Reich and Soviet Russia. But without the support of the "protector" of Germany or the Bolsheviks, who had the Rada (Council) condemned at the Second Congress of Soviets in April 1918 as a counter-revolutionary organ, the BNR was doomed to failure. In the course of the year, broke his own ideas on increasing the Rada and the protagonists of the young republic split into supporters of the Germans and the Soviets.
The proclamation of the Belarusian Soviet Socialist Republic (BSSR) by the Red Army, on the verge had taken control of the Belarusian regions, ended on 1 January 1919 The brief period of independence of Belarus.
