1990 Strangeways Prison riot
The 1990 Strangeways Prison riot was a 25- day prison riot and rooftop protest at Strangeways Prison in Manchester, England.
The riot began on 1 April 1990 when prisoners took control of the prison chapel, and the riot quickly spread throughout most of the prison.
The riot and rooftop protest ended on 25 April when the final five prisoners were removed from the rooftop, making it the longest prison riot in British penal history.
One prisoner was killed during the riot, and 147 prison officers and 47 prisoners were injured.
Much of the prison was damaged or destroyed with the cost of repairs coming to £ 55 million.
The riot sparked a series of disturbances in prisons across England, Scotland and Wales, resulting in the British government announcing a public inquiry into the riots headed by Lord Woolf.
The resulting" Woolf Report" concluded that conditions in the prison had been intolerable, and recommended major reform of the prison system.
" The Guardian" newspaper described the report as a blueprint for the restoration of" decency and justice into jails where conditions had become intolerable".

2008 riot in Mongolia
On 1 July 2008 a riot broke out in Ulaanbaatar, the Mongolian capital city.
The riot was sparked by allegations of fraud surrounding the 2008 legislative election which occurred three days earlier.
While initially a peaceful protest, the riot resulted in Mongolia's first state of emergency which lasted four days, and a military presence( lasting two of those days) was brought into the city to quell the riot.
Five people were killed by the police, and the headquarters of the Mongolian People's Revolutionary Party( who had won the election) was set on fire.
Additional suggested causes for the riot include a change to the electoral system which was not well understood, and an increased division between Mongolia's rich and poor population.

Copenhagen December Riot
The Copenhagen December Riot took place on 16 December 2006 in the Copenhagen area of Nørrebro.
The spark of the riot was the longstanding conflict over the fate of the alternative left- wing social centre Ungdomshuset( The Youth House).
The riot broke out when a Black Bloc demonstration in support of Ungdomshuset was blocked by the police.
The riot was the worst of its kind in Copenhagen for at least 13 years and marked a low point in the negotiations between the authorities and the users of Ungdomshuset.
The riot is generally seen as the prelude to the much larger Copenhagen March Riot in 2007, which followed the eviction of Ungdomshuset on 1 March 2007.
