Bacon's Rebellion was a rebellion led by Nathaniel Bacon of western farmers against the coastal elite in charge of the colonial government.
Western farmers were requesting aid from the Virginia colonial government in dealing with issues with Indians on the frontier. The government was full of wealthy, government officials who refused to help the farmers on the frontier who had less money and influence than the coastal elite. This rebellion was sparked by trouble with Indians but in the end revealed the problems by the social classes in the colony.
