The Boworadet Rebellion (Thai: กบฎบวรเดช; RTGS: Kabot Boworadet) was a Thai rebellion (or unsuccessful coup d'état) led by royalist Prince Boworadet in 1933, in consequence of the conflicts between the previous royalist regime and the succeeding constitutional regime following the Revolution in 1932. The Boworadet revolt was eventually defeated by the Siamese Government. As a historical event it was cataclysmic in the transformation of Thai politics and government.
