Bacon's Rebellion
Bacon's Rebellion was an armed rebellion in 1676 by Virginia settlers led by Nathaniel Bacon against the rule of Governor William Berkeley. About a thousand Virginians rebelled because they begrudged Governor Berkeley's friendly policies towards the Native Americans.
They were kept from combat roles.
The Indians claimed it was there land, (which it was) but the american settlers claimed it was their land and had found the gold themselves.
Hope this helps
