Bacon's Rebellion was an armed uprising that took place in 1676 in the Virginia Colony, led by Nathaniel Bacon against Governor William Berkeley. The rebellion arose from grievances over lack of government support against Native American raids, and issues of land and political power. Bacon and his followers sought to address these concerns but ultimately the rebellion was suppressed, leading to a shift in colonial policies regarding Native Americans and a move toward a more authoritarian government. The event is often seen as a precursor to later revolutionary sentiments in America.
