I have read that in Greece,Poland and Lithuania for example that after being "Liberated" there were a few groups that still fought on. Except this time it was against the Allies that had come and "liberated" them along with their new governments. Were there any others that did the same thing in Asia? Were they just "Independence" and "Freedom fighter" groups, Communist or Anti-Communist? Did they just fight against the Soviets? What other reasons did they fight for?

Anti-Soviet formations fought the Red Army for many years after the war. Mainly it seems for nationalistic reasons, given that the Baltic States were invaded at the start of the war by the USSR.

In the Far-East you have groups forming against colonialism and utilising communism as a uniting factor. The French and British fight several sharp conflicts in the Far East with France running into the Indo-China war against the Viet Minh. The British conduct various anti-insurgency operations but also maintain a policy of slowly running down the Empire and giving independance. So again... Nationalism seems the driving force brought on by the chaos of a world war.

Thats what it seems to be. With politcal idealogies going hand in hand in some instances to fan the flames..

Some Estonians kept fighting the Russians too. In Greece the Communists almost took over , but the allies prevented them from taking power.
