When something rotates, i.e. round in a circle on its axis, it revolves.

The amount it revolves on its axis can be measured in degrees.

If something revolves (or rotates) fully, just once, it has moved on its axis a motion of 360 degrees. This is one complete revolution.

If it only rotates half-way, like a coin that starts with the head being the right way up, but it revolves or is rotated until the head is upside down, it has rotated/revolved 180 degreeson its axis, and has only done half a revolution.

If the coin is totally rotated twice, it has done two complete revolutions.

NOTE: A 'revolution' in this sense has nothing to do with fighting, unless, of course, we are actually talking about people who are actually fighting!
