**II. Symptomatic/Moderate Stage** A. Moderates rise to prominence and challenge the existing authority. //January 28 - At least 24 people are killed and more than 1,000 injured in clashes throughout Egypt, 13 are killed in Suez. Mubarak extends a curfew to all cities in Egypt.// << This event triggered the involvement of people who could be swayed either way. The amount of fellow egyptians that were dying inspired the need for "one-ness"

B. As authority is challenged, some acts of violence occur -- Troops make no attempt to intervene as violence breaks out between pro- and anti-Mubarak groups in Tahrir Square. Anti-government protesters say the attackers were police in civilian clothes.

C. Government fails to use force effectively. January 31 - Egypt's army says it will not use force against Egyptians staging protests. It says freedom of expression is guaranteed to all citizens using peaceful means.

D. Moderates win the day and get power. Honeymoon period where the revolution seems to be over. E. Pressure from extremists grows. F. Moderates are overthrown

**Second Stage Of Rebellion:**

**Definition of Successful Revolutions:**
 * Protesters challenge authority, some violence used
 * government doesn't use force effectively

**Definition of Unsuccessful Rebellion:**


 * An unsecsessful rebelion is unorganized and not planned. To have a succsessful rebellion all people within that rebellion must have a common goal, and have passion to achieve that goal. Without the passion people will either get tired of fighting or just decide they have to o much to loose if they continue to rebel. Without a common goal arguments will occur within the rebellion and instead of focusing on the goal, choas will happen and the rebellion will fall apart.

**Examples of a Successful Revolution:**

some violence, protestors challenge authority, lack of effective government force (French revolution, American revolution)

**Examples of an Unsuccessful Rebellion:** -unorganized, unplanned, lack of common ground (Tiananmen Square)
