Rebellions and conspiracies against the Tudors were all unsuccessful, because many of the relevant grievances were of local concern only and the dynasty was pretty good at getting hold of most of the rebels. Following are the most noteworthy uprising and plots:

1487: Invasion by Lambert Simnel, who claimed to be the earl of Warwick
1494–1497: Conspiracies in favour of Perkin Warbeck, who claimed to be Richard of York
1497: Rebellion in Cornwall
1536: The Pilgrimage of Grace
1549: Rebellions in Devon, Cornwall, Oxfordshire and East Anglia
1554: Sir Thomas Wyatt’s conspiracy and rebellion
1556: The Dudley conspiracy
1569: Rebellion of the Northern Earls
1571: Ridolfi Plot
1586: Babington Plot
1601: Rebellion of the earl of Essex
