I don't think this is quite right:

  • We don't know who attacked the inhabitants of Kobol, although perhaps it's reasonable to suppose that the humans rebelled against the Lords of Kobol in the same way that the Cylons would later rebel against the humans. I don't think there's any evidence that the thirteenth tribe was in conflict with the other twelve, just that they chose to go their separate way during the Exodus.
  • The angels warned the Final Five about the Cylon uprising on Earth, not the Twelve Colonies. After the destruction of Earth, the Five chose to travel to the Twelve Colonies on their own initiative.
  • Despite the long cease-fire, the two modern-day Cylon Wars should be counted as the same conflict, at least in terms of the "cyclic" interpretation. In general, the "humans" (that is, the minority oppressor role) do not win these conflicts, which makes the first Cylon war anomalous when considered on its own.
  • The One's coup should indeed be counted as part of the cycle, as should the liberated Centurions attacking the 145 faction.
