The uprising against Tsarist Russia, which broke out in 1794 in Lithuania, part of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, was an unsuccessful attempt to free Poland and Lithuania from Russian control after the Second Partition of Poland (1793). The uprising lasted from April to August 1794. Its fall was followed by repressions, especially against Polish participants, who were deprived of their property and possessions and subjected to further oppression.
