Shays Rebellion was an armed rebellion that occurred in Massachusetts starting in 1786, motivated partially by post-war financial difficulties and comprised mainly of Revolutionary War veterans. This rebellion showed that the government as created by the Articles of Confederation was too weak and ineffective to deal with the difficulties that the rebellion was motivated by--as well as the rebellion itself.

Shays's Rebellion was primarily led by farmers, particularly those facing economic hardships and heavy tax burdens in post-Revolutionary War Massachusetts. The rebellion was named after Daniel Shays, one of the leaders. In response to the uprising, the state government called out the militia to suppress the rebellion and restore order. Thus, it was the farmers who initiated the rebellion, while the militia was called in by the government to quell it.

Shays' Rebellion took place in Massachusetts in 1786-1787. It was prompted by economic problems after the Revolutionary War. There was a lack of hard currency at the time and the government had passed hard measures in an attempt to collect debt from the citizens. The effect was seething resentment, especially from war veterans.
