Comrat Republic
From Warlike
The Comrat Republic was an autonomous republic established in the village of Comrat, in the Bessarabia Governorate, during the Russian Revolution of 1905 in protest of the tsarist regime of the Russian Empire. It was created after a mutiny by Andrey Galatsan, a socialist revolutionary, with the support of the local Gagauz population. It lasted six days and is today viewed positively in Gagauzia as a premonition of the future Gagauz territorial autonomy.
