The Orange Revolution, the Maidan and the war, sentence 0

In 2004 a presidential election was falsified, and hundreds of thousands of people in orange scarves stood peacefully on Kyiv's Maidan, the main square, until the Supreme Court ordered a fair re-vote; it was like a class that saw the votes for class captain counted wrongly and calmly asked for a recount.

Who acts: hundreds, Supreme Court, Court, class, votes · What happens: falsify, stand, order, be, see, count · To what, where: presidential election, 2004, Maidan, fair re-vote, votes
