English Civil War for one.

Yeah, well Charles I might disagree with you on that one for a start. Loyalist leaders who were shot following the second civil war might register a complaint. The Irish might have a bone or two to pick with you on the 'suffered less' claim following the third civil war. In fact the wars were very bloody - the percentage of civilan dead from the three civil wars and the subsequent actions of Cromwell's government were far greater than the U.S. Civil War - and the repression especially following the third one was extreme.
