So which armed uprisings should have been surpressed and which shouldn't have?

Whoa, I think you've invented the hardest question in history. :hatsoff:

Wouldn't even know where to start on this one without the forums demolishing me. College history students have nightmares about this showing up on the final exam in a much smaller form.

In all fairness, it's like 20 questions in one...

Obviously, the Whiskey Rebellion has the best name.

How the hell does the "Velvet Revolution" warrant mention over the Hungarian revolution of 56?

(I understand the importance of the Velvet Revolution,but you said ARMED and that revolution was an unarmed uprising....)

and I love how you just simplified all the 48 revolutions like they were clones of each other....

ehh don't expect much from me in this thread since Civfanatics is mostly pro Soviet....

EDIT sorry if I come off as rude,but today sucked...

Neither the 1868 Grito de Lares nor the 1950 (was supposed to be 1952) Nationalist Revolt, in Puerto Rico, should have been suppressed. Otherwise we wouldn't have the shameful condition of world's oldest colony--504 years (390 under Spain, 114 and counting under the USA).
 
The people of Puerto Rico apparently don't want to be anything other than "the world's oldest colony", though. Excluding of course the 2012 results indicating a desire for statehood.
 
Would someone mind checking the current tally for accuracy? I thought we were supposed to downvote by -2 and upvote by +1 but I think I saw some -1 downvotes. If you repost a corrected list, highlight the corrections in blue.
