The short-lived 1916 Easter Uprising in Ireland only lasted this long.
Less than a hour
Less than a day
Less than three days
Less than a week
Less than a week. The rebels hoped their uprising would led to a revolt across Ireland against British rule, but such popular support never materialized. The uprising lasted from April 24 to April 29. Fifteen of its leaders were executed, and some 3,000 rebels interned.
