I've always been fasinated by the story of Joan of Arc. With the exception of her and Boudicca has any other female warriors ever inspired a rebellion?

jaon the witch didnt incite a rebellion, she was a french general. and boudicca wasnt under romes direct rule (as far as i know) so the "iceni revolt" wouldnt technically be a revolt either
She never inspired a rebellion, however Major Lyudmila Mikhailovna Pavlichenko was a Ukrainian female sniper during WW2. By wars end she had over 300 confirmed German kills. The old Soviet Union fielded around 2000 female snipers in this time frame. Around 500 survived the war.
Cheers, Matt.
