I'm looking for clashes that occurred in the late 18th-19th century. I need specific acts not something like "the french revolution". I'm looking for something more like The Peterloo Massacre of 1819. Thanks.

The Paris Commune of 1871 is certainly a violent clash between the working class and the government.

The storming of the Berlin Armory, June 14, 1848.

Good site on the revolutionary struggles of 1848, with articles on many places and incidents:

Both Pullman and Haymarket occured in Chicago, which is in the United States. If you wanted violent clashes between labor and the government in the US, there's no shortage.

The draft riots during the US civil war were pretty violent.
The US revolution had a little bloodshed as well.
