Armenian rebellions were the rebellions of ethnic Armenian citizens of the Ottoman Empire. The first recorded rebellion was in 1780, which based on an non-existent law that claimed Armenians could not be taxed. Armenians of Maras did not pay taxes based on this law and refused to do so, even if the governor of Maras rejected their claim. The governor used military force against the rebellions. The first rebellion of Armenians lasted seven months and was based on financial issues.
