Wikipedia: Moscow Uprising of 1682, also known as Streltsy Uprising of 1682 (Russian: Стрелецкий бунт), was an uprising of the Moscow Streltsy regiments which resulted in supreme power being devolved on Sophia Alekseyevna. Behind the uprising was the rivalry between the relatives of the two wives of the late Tsar Alexis I of Russia for the dominant influence on the politics of Muscovy. The uprising was triggered by the death of Feodor III of Russia on 27 April.
