As I recall, Ceaucescu squandered the countries wealth and used violence to keep the citizenry in line. The people lived in poverty while he was building mansions with thousands of rooms. Your basic overthrow-the-despot AFAIK. It began with demonstrations, civilian deaths, and ended when Ceaucescu was executed.

I'm sure that's overly simplistic, but do a search on Ceaucescu and you should find something.
