1381 — Peasants' Revolt
The Peasants' Revolt, also called Wat Tyler's Rebellion or the Great Rising, was a major uprising across large parts of England in 1381. The revolt had various causes, including the socio-economic and political tensions generated by the Black Death in the 1340s, the high taxes resulting from the conflict with France during the Hundred Years' War, and instability within the local leadership of London. The final trigger for the revolt was the intervention of a royal official, John Bampton, in Essex on 30 May 1381. His attempts to collect unpaid poll taxes in Brentwood ended in a violent confrontation, which rapidly spread across the south-east of the country.

1510 — Prince of Anhua rebellion
The Prince of Anhua rebellion, or the Prince of Anhua's uprising, was a rebellion in China led by Zhu Zhifan, the Prince of Anhua, against the reigning Zhengde Emperor of the Ming dynasty. The rebellion took place in Ningxia, one of the nine military regions along the Mongolian frontier. In 1510, Liu Jin, a court eunuch who held significant power in the government thanks to the trust and support of the Zhengde Emperor, sent officials to Ningxia to enforce tax increases on military households and punish tax debtors, provoking anger and discontent among the local population. Taking advantage of the situation, Zhu Zhifan launched the rebellion on 12 May, declaring it a campaign against Liu Jin. The rebels seized control of the city of Ningxia and eliminated the leading local generals and officials, but the rebellion did not spread beyond the city’s immediate surroundings. In response to the rebellion, pro-government commanders in the region began gathering troops, while the government in Beijing appointed experienced military leaders familiar with local conditions—the general Shen Ying and the official Yang Yiqing—to organize the suppression of the uprising. As reinforcement for the local forces, the government also dispatched more than thirty thousand soldiers from the Beijing garrison against the rebels under the command of the eunuch Zhang Yong. The rebellion ended with little significant fighting on 30 May 1510, after lasting 18 days.

1563 — Battle of Bornholm (1563)
The Action of 30 May 1563 was the first naval battle of the Northern Seven Years' War (1563–70), taking place on 30 May 1563 near Bornholm. A Danish squadron of 10 ships under Jacob Brockenhuus, at anchor near Bornholm, saw a Swedish squadron of 19 ships, under Jakob Bagge, approaching, and sent only the 3 ships Hercules 81 (flag), Hector 38 and Hjort 46 toward it to show that they didn't want to fight. Unfortunately, when firing 3 shots as a challenge, they managed to hit one of the Swedish ships. The Swedes promptly surrounded and attacked the Danes, capturing all 3 after a 4-hour fight.
