Answer 1

Answer:

A) young men frustrated by their inability to acquire land.

Explanation:

The Bacon Rebellion was organized by Nathaniel Bacon in 1676. The reason was the demands of that wealthy landowner, whose properties were settled in the border area. This claim towards the local authorities extended to the denunciation of unfair tax policy, the discretionary distribution of public charges and the lack of protection to the farmers of the indigenous threat.
