A communist protester grip's a looted police baton while furniture from a government office burns behind him in Kathmandu, Nepal on 21 April, 2006. Tens of thousands of protesters defied curfew orders and a ban on political demonstrations to rally against King Gyanendra's absolute rule. Nepal's revolution was the first to bring communists into power since the fall of the Berlin Wall.
