📅 15 November 1917 📍 Rusland

The new government declared equality and sovereignty for the peoples of Russia, a right to free self-determination up to separation, abolition of national and religious privilege, and free development of minorities. This repudiated official tsarist hierarchy in principle, while the later reconquest of territories and centralized party power placed those promises under pressure.
