In 1919 Kamenskoye was occupied in turn by the Kuban Cossacks, General Anton Denikin of the anti-Bolshevik White army, and the Ukrainian anarchist Nestor Makhno’s Green army. In the area of Guliay-Pole an 'anarchist state' was proclaimed. Makhno fought against the Germans, against the monarchist White armies (on the side of the [[Red Army]]), and against the [[Bolshevik]]s. The flags of the 'makhnovtzy' were black with inscriptions "Anarchy is the mother of order" [Anarkhiya - mat' poriadka] and other inscriptions, or plain black or red-black. | In 1919 Kamenskoye was occupied in turn by the Kuban Cossacks, General Anton Denikin of the anti-Bolshevik White army, and the Ukrainian anarchist Nestor Makhno’s Green army.
