1964 Ivanovian Revolution

The Ivanovian Revolution (Russian: Ивановская революция) was a period of violent civil unrest in Ivanovie during April 1964.

Background
Since 1935, the head of the country was Pavel Michurin, who usurped power, under which civil liberties were suppressed and dissent was punished. After the end of World War II and the ZSSR (currently Rezesia)'s attempt to establish its own regime, the economy in the Ivanovian Republic was destroyed. The state tried to save on everything to be able to repay loans.

Revolution
On April 2, unrest began in Yarovsk due to wage cuts: about a thousand people gathered near the State Resha building, including dissidents. The protest was suppressed with the use of weapons. Approximately 70 people died. The next day, Pavel Michurin gave a speech on television and denounced the actions, calling the demonstration a "communist provocation."

Aftermath
The revolution led to a change in the existing government. From April 22 to April 30, 1964, a trial was held over representatives of the political elite and the military, who remained on the side of Michurin.
