Why was bacon's Rebellion so important?

History
1 answer:
kkurt [141]3 years ago

Answer:

It was ant-Indian and anti-aristocrat at the same time

Explanation:

The 1676 Bacon's rebellion was aimed at protesting at the Aristocratic rule which prevented people from seizing Indian lands.

" Bacon's Rebellion, fought from 1676 to 1677, began with a local dispute with the Doeg Indians on the Potomac River. Chased north by Virginia militiamen, who also attacked the otherwise uninvolved Susquehannocks, the Indians began raiding the Virginia frontier. The governor, Sir William Berkeley, persuaded the General Assembly to adopt a plan that isolated the Susquehannocks while bringing in Indian allies on Virginia's side.

Others saw in the Susquehannock War an opportunity for a general Indian war that would yield Indian slaves and lands, and would give vent to popular anti-Indian sentiment. They found a leader in Nathaniel Bacon, a recent arrival to Virginia and a member of the governor's Council.

Bacon demanded a commission to fight the Indians; when none was forthcoming, he led "volunteers" against some of Virginia's closest Indian allies. This led to a civil war pitting Bacon's followers against Berkeley loyalists. The conflict was often bitter and personal—at one point, Berkeley bared his chest and dared Bacon to kill him—and involved the looting of both rebel and loyalist properties.

Berkeley expelled Bacon from the Council, reinstated him, and then expelled him a second time. After the governor fled Jamestown for the Eastern Shore, he returned, only to be chased away by Bacon's army, which burned the capital.

How did the foundation of the Church of England differ from the development of other Protestant religions
Lera25 [3.4K]
Most Protestant faiths developed as a leader or group fought against an idea of the Catholic Church. These movements were not popular and often created a target on those separating. 
The Church of England was created by a king, Henry VIII, who was throwing a fit over the Church not granting him a divorce. Henry VIII wanted a divorce so he could remarry and get a son. The Pope would not allow it so Henry left the Church and created his own church--the Church of England--where he was the supreme head. The Church of England basically was Catholicism with a king instead of a pope. <span />
