It's a good example IMO. I didn't come to my mind because I see it more as a colony liberating itself rather than internal turmoil - the ruling masters were mostly on another continent, so there was no problem of what to do with them after they lost power (and in America, the royalist fled to Canada, which was not an option in other revolutions as they didn't leave large areas of land loyal to the old order).
