WIKIPEDIA: The Decembrist Revolt took place in Russia on 26 December [O.S. 14 December] 1825, during the interregnum following the sudden death of Emperor Alexander I. Alexander's heir apparent, Constantine, had privately declined the succession, unknown to the court, and his younger brother Nicholas decided to take power as Emperor Nicholas I, pending formal confirmation. While some of the army had sworn loyalty to Nicholas, a force of about 3,000 troops tried to mount a military coup in favour of Constantine. The rebels, although weakened by dissension between their leaders, confronted the loyalists outside the Senate building in the presence of a large crowd. In the confusion, the Emperor's envoy, Mikhail Miloradovich, was assassinated. Eventually the loyalists opened fire with heavy artillery, which scattered the rebels. Many were sentenced to hanging, prison or exile to Siberia. The conspirators became known as the Decembrists.
