Question

In the 1920s, Goloday Island was renamed to commemorate this event after the discovery of an open grave containing a man who tied himself to his saddle to attack an artillery battery. After this event, women settled in cities like Chita and one with a “Ladies Street” where teeth pulling was carried out by characteristically loyal “wives” of this event’s participants. Northern and Southern factions of the Union of Salvation provoked this event. Some chanting participants during this event mistakenly believed that the Governor of Poland’s wife was named (*) Constitution. Despite being elected “dictator” during this event, Sergey Trubetskoy failed to show up to Senate Square, where loyalist grapeshot artillery cut down rebellious soldiers. For 10 points, name this failed 1825 revolt that tried to replace Nicholas (10[1])I with (10[1])Constantine I, named for the month in which it occurred. ■END■
