The Arkavan Revolution (Russian: Революция из Аркава), also known as the 1991 Arkavan Revolution, was a series of events that culminated in the overthrow of the Communist Party of Arkava in 1992. The revolution also led to the replacement of the People's Republic of Arkava by the present-day Federal Republic of Arkava, as the communist government led by the General Secretary of the Arkavan Communist Party, Mishin Ivanovich, was superseded by the semi-theocratic government of Alexander Minskov, leader of the Arkavan People's Collective, and Mikhail Smirnov, Patriarch of the Arkavan Orthodoxy. The ousting of the communist government formally marked the end of Communism in Arkava.

[Some events around 1960s-1970s where Communist Party did dumb stuff]

Minksov became a highly popular public speaker in 1978, after ending his connection with the ruling Communist Party. A military officer and former mid-level Party official in the Internal Security Bureau, Minskov was privy to some level of intelligence relating to party officials and their habits. Minskov used this information to discredit multiple public figures, deriding them in newspaper Op Eds as well as secretive recorded messages that were distributed via his underground network of supporters. Minskov's fame grew dramatically after the 1981 Bread Riots, where he publicly placed blame on the General Secretary Mishin Ivanovich for the failure in crop yields that year. Minskov famously remarked that the Secretary General's actions, in failing to provide food for the Arkavan people, placed the nation at the heel of the West. For this, Ivanovich exiled Minskov from Arkava in late 1981.
