Good point. I had dismissed the Sepoy Rebellion due to relatively low casualties, but on searching, I find new information that millions died, either through direct massacre or through war related famine.

Am I missing something major that happened in the UK around the year 1870 (that could potentially be the climax of a crisis)?I'm not sure why you're looking at 1870 rather than 1860. Also, I think the relevant political unit is clearly the British Empire, and not just the British Isles. For the UK proper, the crisis war was an external war, kind of like WWII was for the US.
