About this Quote

The Orange Revolution was a series of protests and political occasions that took place in Ukraine in 2004. It was a reaction to the supposed rigging of the 2004 presidential election in favor of the then-incumbent, Viktor Yanukovych. The protesters, led by Viktor Yushchenko, chose orange as their project color to represent their desire for a new, democratic federal government. The protesters were tired of living under a corrupt government and wished to see a modification in the political system. The Orange Revolution achieved success in reversing the results of the election and bringing Yushchenko to power. The transformation was a major event in Ukrainian history and a sign of the power of the people to bring about modification. It revealed that citizens can make a distinction which democracy can dominate.
