  * Decembrists - A famous group of revolutionaries who attempted an armed uprising in December 1825 against Czar Nicholas I. In Russian they were known as Dekabristas so named for the month of the uprising. The insurrection was swiftly snuffed out by the Czar's army and the 5 leaders were executed by hanging in early July 1826. The rest of the conspirators were exiled to Siberia where they remained until 1856. The famous Senate Square in St. Petersburg where the uprising was put down was renamed Decembrist Square in 1925.
