Successful ones?

...three. The American Revolution, the French Revolution, and the Texas Rebellion.

But for those two I can easily name a dozen that failed. In 1848 dozens of European countries rebelled against their governments and were put down in under a year. The American Civil War, the New York draft riots, the Sioux Uprising, Wounded Knee, the Boxer Rebellion.

...Sometimes someone standing up and saying something is wrong isn't enough. Sometimes it just gets people killed.
