Hungary vs. Algeria
Both of these revolutions saw massive protests and other forms of uprisings against the government, who were both from another country. In Algeria, there were many boycotts against the French government, and in Hungary, there were huge protests against the Soviet puppet government. Also, the revolutions could both be considered failures. Though the Hungarian revolution worked for a few days, in the long run, Soviet troops did not leave Hungary until more than 30 years later. The Algerians were obliterated by the French and never really experienced much success in their respective revolutions. Clearly, both the Hungarian and Algerian revolutions have obvious connections.
