The Taurida Soviet Socialist Republic (Russian: Советская Социалистическая Республика Тавриды, tr. Sovetskaya Sotsialisticheskaya Respublika Tavridy) was an unsuccessful attempt to establish a Soviet republic situated in the Crimean Peninsula part of Soviet Russia.[1][2] The republic was established by Bolsheviks Jan Miller and Anton Slutsky who previously participated in the Petrograd Bolshevik Revolution.

It existed from 19 March to 30 April 1918 and was recognised by the Russian SSR.[3]
