The Rebellions of 1837 (French: 'Les rébellions de 1837') were two armed uprisings that took place in Lower and Upper Canada in 1837 and 1838. Both rebellions were motivated by frustrations with political reform. A key shared goal was responsible government, which was eventually achieved in the incidents' aftermath.
Nelson Mandela was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1993. (Couldn't have been able to get this award since he was in prison for 27 years, getting out 1990)
