List of Belarusian uprisings

This is a list of Belarusian uprisings.

The Belarusian concept of uprising is derived from the system of the Grand Principality of Lithuania, where the citizens were supposed to play an important role in the governing of the country. Unsatisfied citizens were allowed to form Rokosz, the legal rebellion against government. Rebellion movements were shaped in the Confederation, a council whose members voted.

Following the example, national uprising were perfectly organised movements against the oppressors.
Many of them occurred during the century of uprisings (1764-1864), and were, with small exceptions, all defeated.
