Lavr Georgiyevich Kornilov (Russian: Лавр Гео́ргиевич Корни́лов) (August 18, 1870–April 13, 1918) in OTL was a senior Russian army general during World War I and the ensuing Russian Civil War. He is today best remembered for the Kornilov Affair, an unsuccessful endeavor in August/September 1917 that purported to strengthen Alexander Kerensky's Provisional Government, but which led to Kerensky eventually having Kornilov arrested and charged with attempting a coup d'état.

Alternate versions of Kornilov have been discovered in the multiverse:

  • Lavr Kornilov, founder and dictator of the Russian Federation (Kornilovshina)
  • Lavr Kornilov, Tsar-General of Russia (No Communism)
