Origin

Early 16th century: from Middle Dutch uproer, from op 'up' + roer 'confusion', associated with roar.

The origins of uproar have no connection with roaring. It came from Dutch, from up ‘up’ and roer ‘confusion’. It sounded as though it could be a native English form, and people associated the second element with roar, shifting the meaning from its original sense of ‘rebellion, uprising’ to ‘loud confused noise’.
