Bacon's rebellion took place in 1676 in the Virginia colony. The colonists were angry at the governor of the colony, William Berkeley. He had neglected to provide for their safety from the surrounding Indian tribes causing numerous Indian attacks on the colony.
Following the Seven Years War (French and Indian War in the colonies), the British government found itself in dire need of money. The war had depleted the British treasury and the government decided that the American colonies should at least help pay part of the cost of the war in the colonies. The Americans were now free from the threat of the French and most of the Indian attacks. In order to continue to protect the Americans, the British would need to raise money, in the colonies, to pay for troops to be sent to America and to be provided for with equipment and boarding. The British citizens were already taxed to the breaking point, while the Americans were paying few taxes, and most of those were avoided via smuggling.
