The main events of the revolution took place in and around the capital city of [[Soliriv]], as well as cities such as [[Artemenkohrad]], [[Suzir'ya]], [[Lisivka]], and [[Alapayiv]]. The revolution began with a {{W|general strike}} following then-king of Khraelyia [[Mykhail V]]'s attempt to pass [[Resolution 148]], which was designed to further strain the recovering agricultural sector following the [[1886 eruption of Zhaluzhnyi|Zhaluzhnyi Eruption]] in 1886, where some effects from the crisis had yet to be reversed. Revolutionary activity lasted for about twenty-five days, consisting of mass demonstrations, violent altercations with law enforcement, and the destruction of monarchist symbolism towards the end. On 6 February, the forces of the capital's garrison sided with the revolutionaries. Four days later [[Mykhail V]] and his family fled the country, seeking refuge in the [[Secrazchak Kingdom]] and ending [[House of Karashkevych|Karashkevych]] dynastic rule. The [[Provisional Congress of the Federal Republic of Khraelyia|Provisional Congress]] then proclaimed the [[Provisional Government of Khraelyia]], which replaced the [[Parliament of the Kingdom of Khraelyia|Parliament of Khraelyia]] until 20 May.
