![]() That was the 1600's, and resulted in the English Civil War, which resulted in "The English Protectorate", a de facto dictatorship lead by Oliver Cromwell.
Nicholas the II dissolved the Duma multiple times, and that lead to the February Revolution, which in tuen led to the October Revolution, which led to the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, the world's first Communist state.

![]() Update: Stephane Dion, leader of the Liberal Party and would-be Prime Minister if the coalition actually went through with their plan, resigned yesterday.
