How are shays rebellion and the whiskey rebellion different?
During Shays's Rebellion, the state was unable to control Shays and his followers and requested help from the government under the Articles. The Articles of Confederation was a weak government and was unable to support, with force, the state of MA in order to aid in the defeat of the rebellion. The Whiskey Rebellion occurred under the new Constitution of the US. Western PA farmers refused to pay the tax that was enacted on whiskey by the new federal government. This was the first test of the new government to enforce the laws it enacted. President Washington ordered troops into the area of western PA and the Whiskey Rebellion collapsed as it became evident that the government was capable of enforcing the law.
The result of Shays's Rebellion was to demonstrate that?
Shay's Rebellion was trying to prove to the government that they were taxing the lands too high. So they burned down buildings and killed people where involved with the high taxing. Does that help?

What were the causes of Shays's Rebellion?
Shays' Rebellion Farmers were unable to pay the debts and taxes on their farms and they were being taken away by the courts. Daniel Shays reasoned that his farm could not be taken away by the court if there was no court. He raised a militia and led an uprising. They started burning down the courts in Western Massachusetts. The idea quickly spread and others began to do the same. At the time the states had very little federal backing and were unable to deal with crisis such as this on their own. The federal government had no authority to step in and help them under the Articles of the Confederation. This event was a major factor in the creation of the Constitution.

Which event happened first bill or rights or Daniel shays was written by James Madison?
The question is not clearly phrased but if you are wondering if the Bill of Rights was formulated before Shays' Rebellion, it was not. The constitutional convention came after Shays' Rebellion was put down, and the rebellion likely influenced the creation of a strong central government with a standing army, to put down future rebellions. Indeed, that was the first use of the standing army thus created; It was used to crush the Whiskey Rebellion in Pennsylvania.

What was the primary cause of Shays' Rebellion?
Shays' Rebellion Farmers were unable to pay the debts and taxes on their farms and they were being taken away by the courts.

What exposed the defects of the Articles of Confederation?
One event was Shays Rebellion in 1786, which threatened the state government of Massachusetts until put down by a private militia force.
What Rebellion caused the leaders finally to call for a Constitutional Convention?
OK so here's how it really happened. Shays Rebellion- All of the farmers rebelled because the government was not helping them financially. They burned down government buildings. Congress had no right to stop them and had no control over them according to the Articles of Confederation, so they just watched the in terror. THIS BROUGHT EVERYONE TO REALIZE THAT THE ARTICLES OF CONFEDERATION WAS TOO WEAK. The convention was called to fix it but we realized that it had too many flaws and just created a new constitution. Hoped that helped :)
