The correct answer is:

The overconfidence of the British troops.

The Star-Spangled Banner, the national anthem of the United States, has lyrics that come from the Defence of Fort M'Henry, a poem by Francis Scott Key. He wrote it after seeing the attack of Fort McHenry by British troops of the Royal Navy in Baltimore Harbor during the Battle of Baltimore in the War of 1812. Key was inspired by the US flag that had been hoisted after a U.S. victory that the British hadn´t expected.

Why did shays rebellion cause the founding fathers to write the constitution?
bulgar [2K]
Shay’s rebellion was an imperative in showing that the Articles of Confederation, the United States first constitution, had significant flaws and needed to either be changed or replaced. Since the US federal government had no control over the states, they did not have the ability to call on a reliable army to stop the rebellion. The 13 states at the time could not be held accountable for anything. This flaw in the Articles of Confederation showed that a stronger federal government was needed in order to keep order in American society.
