1864 CE to 1875 CE

Kastus' Kalinowski (1838-64) had tried to evoke memories of life under Polish rule in his clandestine newspaper Muzhytskaya prawda (Peasants' Truth), which he had published to inspire an uprising in solidarity with the Polish-Lithuanian insurrection against Russia in January 1863.

The insurrection fails, and the Polish territories and people are absorbed directly into the Russian Empire.

Kalinowski, today considered the founding father of Belorussian nationalism, is hanged in
Vilnius.
