Most peasant revolts were not successful. There was one that was successful in Bulgaria, but the leader was deposed soon after he took control of the government.

Though they were not really revolts as such, there were some times that English commoners had a big influence on government, as when the people of London decided to back King Stephen instead of Queen Matilda. This lead to a withdrawal from the area by Matilda, and a protracted civil war, which ended with Stephen as king and Matilda's son, Henry as heir.
