Nathaniel Bacon was upset with Governor William Berkeley of Virginia. Bacon felt that Berkeley's policies favored the wealthy elite and neglected the needs of frontier settlers, particularly regarding protection from Native American attacks. This frustration led Bacon to lead a rebellion in 1676 against Berkeley's government, known as Bacon's Rebellion. The conflict highlighted the growing divisions in colonial Virginia over issues of land, power, and governance.
