Shays'+Rebellion

Daniel Shays was a poor farmer in Massachusetts who had fought in the American Revolutionary War. Shays started a rebellion in August of 1786 and the rebellion ended in February of 1787. Shays was very angry because the wealthy people owned all the land and controlled the Government. The rebellion ended because all of the people who were rebelling were captured. The rebellion was in Massachusetts, mainly in Springfield. Shay's rebellion was one of the first rebellions in the United States. The main reason that Shay's rebellion started was because Daniel was afraid that he was going to loose his property.
