<p>Both Bacon's Rebellion and Shay's Rebellion are known for causing great change. Describe them and thier effects.</p>

<p>Bacon's rebellion was a revolt in Virginia against governor Berkley...I think they were mad because he wouldn't let them fight Native Americans on the frontier....not sure...it was before the revolution. </p>

<p>Shay's rebellion was during the time period of the Articles of Confederation and was started by a buch of western Massachusettes farmers who were mad because they couldn't pay their mortgages. They wanted paper currency, because they favored inflation. This was strong proof that the U.S. needed a stronger central government and became an argument for the Constitution.</p>
