True, I agree.

But whilst the uprising in Nazair appears to refer to one singular instance of uprising, I do not believe the uprising in Maecht is referred to in such a way. Perhaps there were multiple uprisings there, starting much earlier (i.e during the initial invasion) but the only instance we are really informed of is Mistle's father joining the insurrectionist army, which obviously will have happened later than the specific Nazair uprising in question just because of the comparitive ages of those involved.

We also know that Reef was part of the Nilfgaardian forces sent to supress an uprising in Ebbing, but other information suggests Nilfgaard annexed Ebbing much earlier. It seems in the case of Ebbing, that people were still rebelling and uprising even years after the initial annexation.

Of course, we also have to take into account the fact that regretfully Sapkowski's timeline is largely a fractured mess, hah. Everything that isn't specified with a specific degree of accuracy has to be taken with a pinch of salt.
