November Uprising in Poland
November 29, 1830
A group of cadets at the Warsaw military academy attacked the Belvedere palace, intending to assassinate the Russian Grand Duke. The assassination failed but the rising caught. For nearly a year the Polish Congress Kingdom fought Russia; in September 1831 Warsaw fell, and Nicholas I abolished what remained of Polish autonomy.
