17 janv. 1676 - Bacon's Rebellion

Description:

Bacon's rebellion was a fight between Governor Berkeley and Nathaniel Bacon Jr. It was a hard time for the English settlers and many needed someone to blame. They blamed the Natives and wanted to invade their land. Governor Berkeley refused and wouldn't let his colonists invade the native's land. He also regulated trade, but was lax on the rules with his friends. This made people, like Bacon, angry and they started a rebellion and Bacon led his own vendetta against the natives. He was eventually captured but was pardoned.
