Nghệ-Tĩnh Soviets
The uprising of the Nghệ-Tĩnh soviets (Vietnamese: "Phong trào Xô Viết Nghệ-Tĩnh" ) was the series of uprisings, strikes and demonstrations in 1930 and 1931 by Vietnamese peasants, workers, and intellectuals against the colonial French regime, the mandarinate, and landlords.
 Nghệ-Tĩnh (] ) is a compound name for the two central provinces, Nghệ An and Hà Tĩnh, where the revolt mainly took place.
 Demonstrations expressed the general anger against French colonial policies such as heavy taxation and state monopolies on certain goods, as well as the corruption and perceived unfairness of local notables and mandarins.
 Demonstrators, while violent, were armed with little more than basic farm weapons, and were brutally suppressed by the overwhelming military strength of the French.
 The revolt waned by the second half of 1931 due to famine and suppression. The Great Train Robbery (board game)
The Great Train Robbery is a board game created by the British military historian and author Bruce Barrymore Halpenny in the early 1970s, and is based upon the actual Great Train Robbery that took place on the 8 August 1963.
 Although based on the Great Train Robbery, the board game has been adapted on a few small points, one being the extra farm house that was added for playing purposes.
 The game is a form of strategy race game, with the robber player trying to avoid the police players. Jayuya Uprising
The Jayuya Uprising, also known as the Jayuya Revolt or El Grito de Jayuya, was a Nationalist revolt that took place on October 30, 1950, in the town of Jayuya, Puerto Rico.
 The revolt, led by Blanca Canales, was one of the multiple revolts that occurred throughout Puerto Rico on that day against the Puerto Rican government supported by the United States.
 The Nationalists considered the US to be a colonial power. Battle of Tuthill
The Battle of Tuthill took place at Caernarfon on 2 November 1401 during the revolt of Owain Glyndŵr.
 Glyndŵr's success at the Battle of Mynydd Hyddgen the previous June had provided the revolt with fresh impetus, and the battle may be seen as indicative of his determination to foster revolt in the north-west after months of relative inaction in that area.
 In symbolic terms, the battle is most famous as the first occasion on which Glyndŵr flew his flag bearing a golden dragon on a white field, recalling the symbolism of Uther Pendragon, and thereby more solidly drawing comparisons between his revolt and Welsh political mythology of the time, which drew heavily on the image of the "mab darogan" or chosen son, who would free Wales from subjugation. Syrian Peasant Revolt (1834–35)
The Syrian Peasant Revolt was an armed uprising of Arab peasant classes against the rule of Ibrahim Pasha of Egypt in 1834–35.
 The revolt took place in areas of Ottoman Syria, at the time ruled by semi-independent ruler of Egypt, who conquered the region from loyal Ottoman forces in 1831.
 The main arena of the revolt evolved in the Damascus Eyalet - Jerusalem, Nablus and Hebron (Palestine or Southern Syria), as well as a major tribal Bedouin rebellion in Al-Karak (Transjordan); other peasant revolts also erupted in Sidon Eyalet - led by Arab Muslims and Druze and encompassing Mount Lebanon, Hauran and Galilee; and a revolt in Aleppo Eyalet - led by Alawites of the Syrian coast.
 The cause of the revolts was mainly refusal of Syrian peasants to answer conscription order of new Egyptian rulers of the Muhammad Ali dynasty, in line with anti-Egyptian attitudes of local Ottoman loyalists. The Black Jacobins
The Black Jacobins: Toussaint L'Ouverture and the San Domingo Revolution is a 1938 book by Afro-Trinidadian historian C. L. R. James, a history of the Haitian Revolution of 1791–1804.
 He went to Paris to research this work, where he met Haitian military historian Alfred Auguste Nemours.
 James's text places the revolution in the context of the French Revolution, and focuses on the leadership of Toussaint L'Ouverture, who was born a slave but rose to prominence espousing the French Revolutionary ideals of liberty and equality.
 These ideals, which many French revolutionaries did not maintain consistently with regard to the black humanity of their colonial possessions, were embraced, according to James, with a greater purity by the persecuted blacks of Haiti; such ideals "meant far more to them than to any Frenchman." Revolt of the Brotherhoods
The Revolt of the Brotherhoods (Catalan: "Revolta de les Germanies" , Spanish: "Rebelión de las Germanías" ) was a revolt by artisan guilds ("Germanies") against the government of King Charles I in the Kingdom of Valencia, part of the Crown of Aragon.
 It took place from 1519–1523, with most of the fighting occurring during 1521.
 The Valencian revolt inspired a related revolt in the island of Majorca, also part of Aragon, which lasted from 1521–1523. Matale rebellion
The Matale rebellion, also known as the Rebellion of 1848, took place in Ceylon against the British colonial government under Governor Lord Torrington, 7th Viscount Torrington.
 It marked a transition from the classic feudal form of anti-colonial revolt to modern independence struggles.
 It was fundamentally a peasant revolt.
