The event that highlighted the need for a strong federal government was Shays' Rebellion in 1786-1787. This armed uprising in Massachusetts, led by Revolutionary War veteran Daniel Shays, was fueled by economic distress and opposition to state tax policies. The inability of the Articles of Confederation to effectively manage the crisis underscored the weaknesses of the existing government, ultimately leading to calls for a stronger federal structure and the drafting of the U.S. Constitution.
