The Wyatt Rebellion began on April 25, 1554. It was led by Sir Thomas Wyatt the Younger and aimed to oppose Queen Mary I's plans to marry Philip of Spain. The rebellion was rooted in concerns about the loss of English independence and Protestantism under a Catholic monarchy. Ultimately, it was unsuccessful, and Wyatt was executed.
The event that threatened Lord Baltimore's authority in Maryland was the Protestant Rebellion of 1689, also known as the Coode's Rebellion. This uprising was fueled by tensions between the Protestant majority and the Catholic minority, as Lord Baltimore was a Catholic and had significant control over the colony. The rebellion led to the overthrow of Lord Baltimore's government, resulting in the temporary loss of his proprietary powers and the establishment of a Protestant-led government in Maryland. Ultimately, this event highlighted the religious and political conflicts that could undermine his authority in the colony.
In 1655, Maryland experienced a significant political conflict known as the "Covenanter Rebellion." This uprising was led by Protestant dissenters against the Catholic-controlled colonial government under Governor William Stone. The rebellion aimed to assert Protestant rights and culminated in a brief period where the rebels gained control of the government, leading to increased tensions between Catholic and Protestant settlers in the colony. Ultimately, the rebellion was suppressed, and the original government was restored.
