Streltsy, Revolt of the

Years: 1698 - 1699

The Streltsy Uprising of 1698 is an uprising of the Moscow Streltsy regiments.

Some Russian historians believe that the Streltsy uprising was a reactionary rebellion against progressive innovations of Peter the Great.

Others suggest that it was a riot against the yoke of the serfdom oppression, military service hardships and harassment.

"The Master said, 'A true teacher is one who, keeping the past alive, is also able to understand the present.'"
