The Peasants' Revolt, also known as Wat Tyler's Rebellion, occurred in England in 1381 and was driven by widespread discontent among the lower classes due to oppressive taxation, particularly the poll tax, and harsh living conditions. The revolt was fueled by grievances over feudal obligations, social inequality, and the aftermath of the Black Death, which had drastically reduced the labor force. Led by figures like Wat Tyler and John Ball, the peasants sought to challenge the established social order and demand reforms, though the uprising was ultimately suppressed.
