The Decembrist Revolution occurred in Russia after Tsar Alexander I died and it was kind of a competition for power and the position of the Tsar. It was not really lead by any one person, it was a bunch of people each trying to gain power for themselves. The revolution ended when Tsar Alexander I's relative, Tsar Nicholas I, took his place as the tsar of Russia. Tsar Nicholas I was very conservative in his rule to try and stop revolts such as the Decembrist Revolution from happening again. I hope this helped!
The two words mean the exact same thing.
Russia in Decembrist revolution
main reason for the failure of the Decembrist uprising was that the leaders of the uprising acted hesitantly, lost time and lost the initiative. The Decembrists "stood for" revolution. Meanwhile, the chances of committing revolution were very high. Nikolai was not strong enough to actively oppose the insurgents. Even when they brought guns, it was not for them shells! (powder and buckshot brought only in the evening).
