Shays' Rebellion affected the government of the nation as it led to widespread reform of federal tax laws.
Answer: Option C
<u>Explanation:</u>
During American Revolution, Daniel Shay catered in the Continental Army, who was basically a Massachusetts farmer. After revolution with bunch of farmers he also went back to his town with little finances as military service charges were not fully paid by the government.
When state government formulated orders of paying taxes on citizens, shay and other citizens became rebellious and protested taxation payments because all were needed to pay tax in form of gold or silver coins inspite of paper currency.
Due to being unsuccessful in paying taxes with high interest rates, federal government was struggling because the Articles of Confederation did not permitted Federal authorities to pressurize states for paying taxes. This became strong reason for United States to reform constitution involving federal tax laws at the constitutional convention.
