The Christmas Revolution, lasting from 22-27 December 1878, was an event in the Seredinian Tsardom which saw the fall of the Tsarist autocracy and led to the multi-year Seredinian Civil War. It eventually led to the creation of a democratic state in Seredinia in the form of the Seredinian Federation. Initially culminating in the arrest of reigning Tsar Anatole I Petrov and his family by Kadet partisans, the unrest fomented the growth of a far-left faction which eventually formed the Seredinian Socialist Authority in the nation's north-east. Battles between the Kadet-led republican faction and the Socialist Authority would constitute the majority of the war, as Tsarist authorities controlled only small areas outside of the metropolis of Belogorodka, then known as Tsaritsyn.
