Shays' Rebellion of 1786 was primarily driven by economic hardship in post-Revolutionary America, particularly in Massachusetts. Many farmers faced heavy debts, high taxes, and the threat of foreclosure, leading them to demand relief measures, such as paper money and the cessation of tax collection. The lack of effective governmental response to these grievances fueled discontent, culminating in armed protests led by Daniel Shays. This uprising highlighted the weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation and underscored the need for a stronger federal government.
