List of peasant revolts

This is a chronological list of revolts organized by peasants.

Background

File:Poltettu kylä.jpg

The Cudgel War was the 16th century peasant uprising in Finland, which was at that time part of the Kingdom of Sweden. Poltettu kylä (Burned Village), by Albert Edelfelt, 1879

The history of peasant wars spans over two thousand years. A variety of factors fueled the emergence of the peasant revolt phenomenon, including:

• Tax resistance
• Social inequality
• Religious war
• National liberation
• Resistance against serfdom
• Land reform
• External factors such as plague and famine

Later peasant revolts such as the Telangana Rebellion were also influenced by agrarian socialist ideologies such as Maoism. The majority of peasant rebellions ended prematurely and were unsuccessful. Peasants suffered from limited funding and lacked the training and organisational capabilities of professional armies.
