That wasn’t a rebellion. It was little more than a badly organised riot. As it says, the ONLY real threat to Henry’s security on the throne (although I’m not so sure about that - I seem to recall the French sent an armada to coerce the country back to Catholicism).

‘It was little more than a badly organised riot.’

A badly organized riot with more folks in the opposition than the royal army, led by the political leadership of the area, lasting about a year, and apparently being settled by a peace conference until the white flag was dishonored? If calling it that makes you happy, fine.
